3. Burna Boy – No Sign of Weakness
Following the success of his previous album, which paid homage to hip-hop culture with collaborations featuring Wu-Tang Clan legends and artists like J. Cole and Dave, Burna Boy is gearing up for his eighth studio album, No Sign of Weakness, slated for release in 2025. If his last release of 2024, “Bundle by Bundle”, a song that seamlessly fuses Afrobeats with infectious dance music while sampling the iconic “Fish Go Deep” by The Cure, is any indication, it leaves fans wondering if he is leaning into global dance floors or if this is just another genre-defying masterpiece. Either way, the king of Afro-fusion has the world’s attention, and 2025 might just be the year he reinvents himself yet again.
