Nigerian Afrobeat sensation, Burna Boy, took to Instagram on Saturday to reveal that he has accumulated more wealth than many of the politicians and oil tycoons he once admired.
In a candid post, the singer reflected on how his financial status has shifted, stating, “Imagine growing up and only oil men and politicians were the ones really getting the real money… Now an ugly black musician from Port Harcourt got more money than 90% of the people he looked up to as money makers.”
Burna Boy cautioned his followers against underestimating others based on their age or background, emphasizing that anyone can achieve success and become the next Elon Musk.
This statement comes as Burna Boy continues to break records in the music industry, recently becoming the Nigerian artist with the most charting songs in US Billboard history.
