In a recent book podcaster Daddy Freeze, renowned music executive Paulo has named Afrobeats sensation Burna Boy as the richest musician in Nigeria, revealing the staggering amount he earned just four years ago.
During the discussion, Paulo disclosed that Burna Boy, known for his global influence and chart-topping hits, is the highest-earning Nigerian artist. According to Paulo, the artist made an astonishing $80 to $100 million in 2020 alone, marking the peak of his earnings.
Paulo highlighted that Burna Boy’s earnings from that period surpass what he makes currently or even what he made two years ago. He also pointed out the artist’s modesty, which helps conceal the true extent of his wealth.
Burna Boy’s management team, largely composed of his close family members, including his mother and sister, plays a significant role in his career.
The revelation by Paulo underscores Burna Boy’s financial success and solidifies his position at the pinnacle of Nigeria’s music industry.
