On Monday, 12th August 2019, Spotify announced that it has teamed up with Burna Boy to launch ‘Burna Bank.’ Inspired by the artwork for the African Giant album, the music streaming company gives a little insight into what ‘Burna Bank’ is.

 

“The installation features a unique ATM which will be dispensing custom, collectible bills designed by Sajjad Musa. Each bill is inspired by Burna’s Nigerian roots, and his quest to call out corruption and the disproportionate distribution of wealth.”

We are yet to confirm the detailed purpose of the said Burna Bank. But hopefully, the socially conscious message he is trying to pass across will reach his audience loud and clear.
