Nigeria’s richest musicians and their net worth - LATEST LIST

Nigerian music has evolved over time and our musicians are beginning to gain international recognition. This also means that the originators of these songs will increase in wealth and net worth.

According to a recent list released by Forbes Africa, about four Nigerians made it to the top five richest musicians in Africa. The list was put together using factors such as endorsement value, popularity, show rates, sales, awards, YouTube views, appearance in newspapers, investment, social media presence, influence and others. Nigerian artistes, P-Square, Don Jazzy, Wizkid and Davido, are among the top 10 richest African musicians on that list.

This means the music industry in Nigeria is certainly a money spinner. As we bring to you our top 10 Nigerian musicians, their net worth does not necessarily mean the amount of money they have in the bank. It is how much they are worth in asset based on their works, endorsements, properties, achievements, investments, and popularity.

Bear in mind that this list is dynamic – it changes from time to time. Someone who is on this list today may not be on it tomorrow. Endorsement deals are being signed on a daily basis, some artistes are being dropped by their brands, some acquire and/or lose properties, some never disclose how much they’re really worth, making it difficult for a correct list to be compiled. But if you want to have an idea of Nigeria’s richest artistes, then here you have it.
