R&B artist Akon wants to build an expansive "futuristic" city in Senegal, but before he has even broken ground, the "Smack That" singer has already made plans to build a second Akon City in Uganda. 

According to the Washington Post, both cities will be powered by the singer’s cryptocurrency called “Akoin.”

“A place suitable in Uganda that has not less than one square mile, which will be made available to him and his team,” Isaac Musumba, Uganda’s minister for urban development, said at a news conference on Monday (April 5).
