Take the number and divide by 10.

OP thinks there is a positive correlation between viewership and net worth.

The people making money are the producers. Only a few artists do scale through.

No Nigerian artist is worth N1 billion. It is

There you have it.

how do producers make more money than artiste? A producer only makes money when an artiste goes to work wit him.......an artiste makes money 4rm shows, album sales, endorsments, tours, concerts...etc.. U cant even compare......didnt u see when samclef was telling d world how wizkid dumped him and how frustrated his life in d industry has been?

Stop. Deceiving yourself. Its even hard for international artists to be dis rich talkless of these ones. They are rich no doubt but the net worths? Hell NO!. This is a big lie. Psquares net worth maybe high but it. Can't exceed 10 billion naira

twerkjack:
IS DAT SO?? OYA SOMEBODY PLS GIMME PATORANKINGS NUMBER! I WANT TO ACCEPT HIS MARRIAGE PROPOSAL THAT I REJECTED BACK IN THE DAYS WHEN HE WAS STILL SELLING RAT POISON

Naughty u.... dats life for u... from selling rat poison to a millionaire...

fuckerholic:

Don't mind them..as if na so the money dey flow like water..the richest among them (psquare) don't even worth up to 5billion

shebi u sef agree say psquare na im rich pass.....i no know why dat bias man coogar just no one admit d truth

LajaLaba:
Lola a golddigger u are really a jester

Lola is a very clever golddigger. Immediately, she saw that psquare had started making it big, she hurriedly got pregnant for Peter. Abi, don't you know that that's what golddiggers use to tie rich guys down?

This op is as sick as f*ck. Really 100millions upon millions like he is counting sand. Op you be mad f*ck. Was it not last week a thread graced frontpage about naija artists donating for OJB where M.I was crying foul cos of #100thousand. I can't believe someone worth close to #1billion would find it hard to help a fellow colleague with 100k. Flavour richer than D'banj..........hehehehehe.
Yeye op, trying to sell wrong signals to serious youth out there. You think it is so so easy to make money just shouting jargons(everytin is sex, boo.bs/bu.tt)

Flawlessangel:

dude ur argument dsnt make sense...u keep saying shit like dbanj is an ambassador 4 bbd but how much was he paid? ...bank of industry? Oh plzz , how much was he paid?.......u keep pulling crap outta ur ass to argue 4 dbanj wit no proof.....show me figures man not overhyped bullshit.....if a big company endorses u 4 little amount and a small company endorses u 4 a large amount which endorsment is better? People who know shit abt what happens in d industry and keep tabs on things like dis are telling u psquare is richer and u are here arguing bull shit......glo has never paid 240milla to any naija artiste ever...so dnt even go there...dbanj deal is not even up 2 50 milla...even if dbanj performed in GLASTONBURY it dsnt matter, it all boils down to, HOW MUCH WAS HE PAID?.....and dats just one show....lets even assume d money he got 4rm dat show is huge.........psquare goes to 3 shows and bamn! Dey hav stalemated/eclipsed d money db got 4rm d glastonbury shit.........and u wud b a fool if u argue that dbanj goes to more shows than psquare.......

When u show me figures of how much dbanj was paid 4 bbd and bnk of industry.....we can chat....until then ur argument is declared ...NULL AND VOID! AND UR POINT USELESS AND IRRELEVANT.

Thank you for this post. The point is 'How much was he paid?'. The guy might have been paid peanuts. At least when psquare got the 250million naira glo deal, it was all over the news. He claims dbanj got glo deal twice, so how come the amount of the deals didn't make news? It's because it was peanuts. Dbanj that is going about begging upcoming artistes to do a remix with them.

I think this Op don dey mad... where likes of Chidinma, patoranking, flavour get that money.... how many endorsement dem get..u wan tell me say Harp carry 100million give flavour... make u get ur facts right ooooo.... laugh in Spanish I bet am patoranking never worth 300m... Abi na those machines dem dey use decieve u... fake lifestyle plenty abeg... So if Patoranking it worth 350million... shey hin songs ring for ear pass Oritse Femi own ? then Oritsefemi suppose den worth 700million then. abi how much reminisce go worth? so funny... imagine.

Coogar am trying rili hard 2 understand where dis ur stupidity is coming 4rm i just dnt understand......

How can an educated man like u bliv things u arnt so sure of(money gotten from beats by dre and bank of industry).........and ignore facts of a supposed better deal (psquare's 240milla deal and 1million dollar kora win) and still come here arguing bullcrap like dbanj is richer?..

Where is the sense in this? And its fools like u that wud b d ist to scream tribalism when things dsnt go their way.....u concluded dat d only reason am supporting is based on d fact dat am igbo , i cant even begin 2 tell jst how stupid dat sounds..

Its no news to everyone , infact its general knowledge to everyone that psquare is richer than dbanj, how many people on this thread as disputed dis fact, if not 4 dat other dude and urself

i know why its hurting u tho, and am glad its hurting u like crazy, argue all u want.......but as long as everybody who knows anything about music says psquare is richer then dats where we stand.....

I repeat again...EVERY LIST ONLINE SAYS PSQUARE IS RICHER THAN DBANJ ...SO IT MAKES U POINT USELESS. Maybe u should go steal billions of naira so u can help dbanj surpass psquare.......

Fools like u wud know d truth but still pretend like dey dont........making baseless claims and hyping crap instead of stating facts.

Look.at the music industry as the relationship between a p1mp and his b#tches. Artists (including one hit wonders) come and go, but the producers thrive. Successful artists find ways to write and produce as well. Endorsements? Yes. But artists are paid for shows. Guess who gets the bulk of that money? Are you aware that some artists do not own their songs? Yep. That's the nature of the beast. What it means is that once the contract is up, such artist cannot go about singing his/her own songs in shows. Ask the American rapper Eve.

In.the case of samclef(never heard of him), some people call themselves producers just as every "mom and pop" store owner refers to him(her)self as an entrepreneur.

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!!

this is 2015!
i don't argue with serial wänkers like yourself. if you dunno the value of performing at glastonbury or being an ambassador for beats by dre in africa then there's no point dragging this. you are myopic - nothing can change that even if we argue till year 3000.

U keep saying whats the value of the deal Dbanj got. There are certainly some deals you dont need to know the value before u know its going to be huge. What is your source that Psquare got a 250million deal with GLO? Did Glo announced the value of the deal or did Psquare make official anouncement? U got this from blogs written by non informed youth like most people here so stop makin reference to that. Am not supporting anyone but the fact remains Dbanj has a better brand than Psquare or any artist in Nigeria. He has a better good will asset than Psquare. Forget Dbanj is broke news, do u really think somebody will borrow Dbanj 60million without collateral? Who does that pls? Not even a bank. Then if that happens it shows he has a very strong goodwill of making money, 60m no collateral it shows how big your empire is. Having said this i think Psquare are makin cool money too. am not arguing who has more money but am arguing that Dbanj has a better brand than the twins. Mind you that better brand brings better cash.

still counting 123 till I reach 1billion b4 I reply dis opp

I believe you're judging from popularity and fame because you using the total number of youtube views and not worth of assets.
When you say worth in this context, you mean estimated value and this is determined by the valuation of your assets. How many of these artistes like Chidinma, Pyno, Pantoranking, Yemi Alade etc have properties that appreciate and not depreciate like (cars).
Secondly, his Don Jazzy really a musician?
And when you say richest musician and not specifying on hip hop that means the likes of Pasuma, Obesere, Sunny Ade etc should be included. Till today, Madonna and Celin Dion are still recognised as some of the richest female musicians in the world even though they hardly release songs nowadays.
Let's be sincere, these worth are exaggerated because most of these artistes got popularity and fame not money except for few that got business brains.

This OP, you too like zeros. Haba! Counting 1,2,3, saliva is finishing.

Could you please shut the f**k up??

LoL Exaggerated Figures Obviously.

Counting Grains Of Rice As Money Is The Only Time an Artist Can Be as Rich as That In The 9ja Scene.

Having Said That, It Has Been In Virtually All The Magazines,Media Houses,Blogs etc I have ever come across that Psquare are The Richest Artists Over The Likes Of Dbang, Tu-face etc.

If I Remember Correctly, as Of 2008, Mtv base carried out an Estimated Net-Worth Of These Stars To Be Thus;

Tu-face = #250mill

Dbang = #350mill, and

Psquare = #450mill


I don't know about The Rest But Obviously These Stars have Grown Some Bucks More Courtesy Endorsement Deals and What Not.

I die well. Dem wan steal dat money Odeh OP.

@op dz ur net worth gor.....pls help me calculate my own asap
