cool



Let him go and ask how much Wizkid got paid for his performance at Indian royal wedding

Even if Davido stops singing today Burna Boy can't be as rich as Davido even if he uses all his entire household for money rituals or he starts selling drugs

As a Shareholder of Pacific holdings owners of Omotosho and Olorunsogo Electricity power plant, several projects in Banana island, Shares in Adeleke University ... Davido's sister is actually worth more cash, asset and stocks than Burna boys entire Generation combined

The biggest African artists that have made so much impact in World music is between Fela Kuti and Youssour N'dour.

I believe Odogwu, No artist comes close to him when it comes to stage performance, his energy is topnotch.

lyrically Odogwu stands out from other artists, he's not the bum bum and grace type of musician.

Vocally Odogwu gat a very unique voice


Lastly Odogwu promised to give us Grammy and a gave us a Grammy


How to enjoy Odogwu more: Smoke your weed while listening to his songs

The only thing that can save you is how much money you have invested in business that can make sure you never go broke.

Nobody is above getting broke. Be it footballers, actors or musicians. It's all about investing for the dry season era,

Burna boy and DJ cuppy are two people with money and tiny self worth. We can excuse Burna that he didn't grow up rich but Cuppy?


We wish him and his "highest paid" well...
