Burna Boy Breaks Ramadan Fast With Aliko Dangote Amid Busy 2025 Schedule
Nigerian music superstar Burna Boy joined Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, to break the Ramadan fast, sharing a meal alongside Flytime Entertainment CEO Cecil Hammond. The intimate gathering, captured in a viral video, marked the fourth day of Ramadan and highlighted Burna Boy’s growing connections with influential figures in Nigeria.
The Grammy-winning artist has long admired Dangote, even naming a song after him on his 2019 album African Giant. This meeting follows a recent gathering hosted by billionaire Femi Otedola, where Burna Boy and fellow Grammy winner Wizkid were also present. Beyond music, Burna Boy is expanding his business empire, launching a football academy and a film studio.
2025 is shaping up to be a landmark year for Burna Boy. He kicked off the year with his 10th Grammy nomination, solidifying his status as Nigeria’s most nominated artist. He also dropped Update, the lead single from his highly anticipated eighth album, No Sign of Weakness, set for release later this year.
In addition to his studio work, Burna Boy continues to dominate the global stage. He recently headlined a sold-out concert in Nairobi, giving fans a preview of his 2025 tour, which will take him to major venues across Europe and North America. With his influence growing in both music and business, Burna Boy remains one of Africa’s most powerful entertainers.
