Akon isn't just the guy who's on an upcoming track with Tekashi 6ix9ine.
Earlier this year, the Senegalese-American mogul finalized a deal to build a city in Senegal, which will be called Akon City.
And by "city", they mean an entire city. In fact, Akon just closed a $6 billion deal with KE International to build Akon City
Here's more from the press release:
"Akon City has awarded the contract for building and executing the city to KE International, a US based Consulting and Engineering firm. The US $6 Billion futuristic-cryptocurrency themed City is founded by Senegalese-American superstar and philanthropist Akon.
With the awarding of the contract, KE International has secured US $4 Billion from investors for the first and second Phases of execution of Akon City, and will have Dubai based Bakri & Associates Development Consultants lead the architectural designs under KE International guidance."
Your move, JAY-Z.
