"Bumaye" is a phrase that originates from the Lingala language, which is spoken in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It translates to "kill him" or "kill them" and gained wider recognition through its use in the context of the boxing match between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman, where it became a rallying cry for Ali's supporters. The phrase has since been adopted in various cultural references, including music and sports.

What does 'Ali boma ye mean?

it means "Ali kill him!". At the Rumble in the Jungle in 1974, when Muhammad Ali fought George Foreman, the crowd was pro Ali, so they were shouting "Ali boma ye" (boma = kill; ye= him) but today many English speakers misspell it as bumaye or bomaye. However, it's not one word, it's indeed two words.
