Award-winning Afro beat master Damini Ogulu, often known as Burna Boy, has introduced the cannabis brand "Brkfast" to American consumers.
In addition to announcing the news on its Instagram page, Black Cannabis Magazine noted that Burna's Brkfst is also available as tea, snacks, and other consumables.
According to news reports, Burna and Jokes Up/Ice Kream launched the company in South Beach, Miami.
Remember that Odogwu collaborated with Jokes Up/Ice Kream to debut his cannabis brand BrkFst in South Beach, Miami, on October 7, 2022?
By calling his brand BrkFst, Burna is adding to the cannabis community.
"Most smokers will relate since they consume marijuana in the morning at breakfast, which is your first meal of the day. The hashtag is therefore #Brkfstisforsmokers@smokebrkfst.
The all-day event, which coincided with Miami Carnival, began with a Pop Up from 12 to 3 followed by brunch at Miami Diner from 3:30 to 7 and included the Burna Boy starring team at the Tipsy Musical Festival at Bayfront Park with an all-white motif, which ended at 11 PM.
recollects that Burna explained why the Nigerian government opposed legalizing marijuana during an appearance with Home Grown Radio in Los Angeles in October 2021.
He claimed that a sizable portion of the populace drinks it, hence the Nigerian government's opposition was hypocritical.
