This is outright poo. what are these people singing to earn this much?

Imagine yemi alade is worth N820 million? How many albums and endorsements does she have?

Some blogger just sit at home and start writhing rubbish. what parameters did you take to arrive at this?

Most of their lifestyle your see on tv(which you used in creating this) is sooo fake. Someone passes some advert audition, get paid 100k and start ranting on Twitter he's just got endorsed with 200million!!


Any sha:
Working on my album

ppl tht cnt even pay 30k for studio session suddenly have networths running into billions.... Useless bloggers always tlkn rubbish.

Absolute rubbish...the blogger that composed this list must have been smoking a big pile of shiit...

I don't even want to start writing things here, it'll be a complete waste of time and energy.

Yemi Alade, Chidinma, Phyno, Patoranking, Flavour? infact 80% the artists on that list are not worth quarter of the ridiculous figures quoted up there. And who says the number of youtube views you have translate into net worth?

And even ranking don jazzy, and most ridiculously Flavour's worth above d'banj is just preposterous. I also smell a whole bunch of ethnic bias in this stupid write up, the writer is obviously Ibo.

And you're obviously Yoruba.

Its not about having 50 endorsements, how much are they worth? Just one endorsement could be higher than 50 endorsements. P Sqaure are richer than D Banj. By their investments you will know, P Sqaure goes to show more than D Banj and Tuface combined and charge higher than them combined

d'banj's beats by dre deal is worth more than every kobo p-square has earned from their various shows. d'banj's brand is far global than p-square. you dunno what you are talking about.

Thunder fire una dirty mouths

I do not like tribalism in any shape or form towards ANY tribe but I am sick and tired of this nonsense trend I have noticed on NL. I am here reading this post thinking about how ridiculous these numbers are like everyone else, then some random e-diot types rubbish about Igbos!! How can?! It shows the level of tribalistic and errant venom rushing through their veins that this is what they think about in even the most RANDOM article!! If aything, it highlights a deeper inferiority complex within those commenters.

What upsets me the most it that the mods are slowest in removing these tribalistic comments aimed at Igbos.

he's 6 times richer than p-square.
they don't have his brand. if you know what it means to be the only african ambassador to sell apple's beats by dre product in africa then you would begin to understand.

the gold design was exclusively made for d'banj in africa. it was d'banj that told apple that gold symbolises success in africa & his name is written on every product of that gold version. you think this is loya milk endorsement or indomie noodles? abeg, park well. p-square twins are praying to be where d'banj is at the moment.

How much is the dre deal? Do you know that PSquare has an endorsement with beer coy in one of the African country? Do know that Psquare has a house at Park view estate at Ikoyi? Do you know that has a hotel and water bottling plant at Jos? Do p square has an estate at Portharcourt? I don't need to argue with you further, why do think Lola was struggling to marry Peter by all means?

if your generation cannot touch that then blame your ancestors for leading a pathetic life. d'banj had close to £2m pounds in cash before he decided to take his music to nigeria.

this was why he landed in nigeria with his own record label, his own studio, etc. he was never at the mercy of anyone when he released his first album.....unlike 2face/p-square etc.

we are talking apple, you are talking beer company in an african country. you are very shallow-minded.

lola struggled to marry peter cos that's her babyfather. lola was an oil company executive when p-square boys were still struggling to earn a living. why are you sounding like she's a gold digger. if anything, it's the p-square twins that must have used her money to make music videos back in the days.

talent-wise.....d'banj is a lilliput to almost any music artiste in nigeria. he cannot sing but he's an entertainer. money-wise, no nigerian artiste comes close. do you know how many weeks oliver twist stayed in the charts in europe?


id u see psquare shows where fans were fainting? Who has fainted cos of dbanj? Stop typing bull crap if u dnt knw d details of deals like...dis......ok lemme ask u.....how much was dbanj payed for being an ambassador for beats by dre?

so fainting translates to money? grin
how many of those people fainting took money out of their pockets to buy the albums? isn't it piracy & downloading from illegal music sites as usual in africa?

we are talking money & you are talking about fans that fainted. d'banj is a global brand. he's the only artiste in nigeria that can win a grammy. all the others aren't doing anything to push it to the next level. they just want to enjoy being local champions.

your Dbanj that is still a tenant or another D banj? D banj that was a security man in uk before he relocated together with Don Jazzy? Go and search for videos of interviews of his humble beginning, I know Lola owns CAPITAL OIL, She also bankrolled P Square music before they came to limelight. She rented their first house and also fed them, gave them their first car and also built the OMOLE mansion, Park View mansion, Jos Mansion, their village house and their estate in PH.

what has his music career gotta do with the business side of things? was 50 cent the best rapper in the world when coca cola made him the richest rapper in 2007? was dre the best rapper when apple made him a billionaire last year?

i already told you d'banj is not even 10% as talented as the p-square twins but that's not the issue here. we are talking about their income & their brand. focus on the brand, leave the talent or the number of mouths to feed out of it.


which leaves psquare easily number one.....psquare also commands more money per show than any nigerian artiste and has investment all over the country besides music, and jst when i thought dbanj is easily d 2nd, it turns out that he's owing some company

d'banj owes a company?
which company? you nigerians make ms laugh. grin grin you believe rumours than the gospel.


.....which means he actually needed to borrow money to sort/set up a business....which means he's not as rich as we bliv, especially since he hasnt denied any claims, dude i know u are a dbanj fan and d truth is bitter but accept it, psquare and dbanj no b mate again, psquare are more talented, better singers, better performers, more successful, more fans, better music and has more hit songs. In other words, THEY ARE FARRR RICHER THAN BROKEBANJ

i am not even a fan of any of them. i only listen to rap music. the facts are what we are addressing here and d'banj's endorsements tower over any artiste in africa. even though he cannot sing, he's the one people are paying to see.

his "top of the world" music was used as ACN theme. one of his tracks "bother you" was also used as a sound track on chimamanda's half of the yellow sun movie. talent doesn't necessary translates to money - the brand is the key. kim kardashian has no talent see where that has got her. don't let d'banj's hatred becloud your senses.

he's the #1 in nigeria.
