Salute to Akon for making moves for The People :salute:

I just hope it didn’t take investmens from asians to make this happen.
They’re taking over Africa and the Caribbean like crazy right now with their investments..

Shyt is crazy bro, it’s happening all over as we speak and there barely is any pushback.

All them ppl in high positions filling they pockets with them asians leaving the next generations to suffer and clean up the mess they leaving behind.
We’re litteraly watchin Africa and the Caribbean getting owned by asians in real time, shyt is wild.

What does this even mean?

Is he the "face" of the city. Everyone's so impressed so fast. What's it all about tho?

I heard about that.

Let's say he has a city. What does this have to do with his music career? It feels like such a different move.

I don't know. If he earns millions from this good for him. If it works for him good for him.

What's crazy is Akon could prob still drop bangers today if he wanted to.

Did you know he dropped 2 albums last year? I didn't. Good on him for doing so. But they didn't chart. They weren't bangers hit wise. Still he gets daps for doing that.

He’s gonna be “the face” of the city by default since the city is named after him.

This move has NOTHING to do with his music career, making it even more powerful.
This move is strictly made as an effort to improve Africa.


Akon and others will be owners of an actual city.
This project obviously needs to be funded with 3rd party investors.
Asians currently massively investing in Africa (and the Caribbean) and getting ownership is where my concern and comment came from.
