The Rise Of Burna Boy’s Net Worth In 2023
Burna Boy, the first Nigerian to get consecutive Grammy nominations and the most streamed Nigerian artist after Rema, has a net worth of 16 million USD, making him the fifth richest musician in Nigeria in 2023.
Since his 2012 breakout, the Grammy-winning singer, rapper, composer, and lyricist has been one of the genre’s
global forerunners.
“Last Last” was one of American rapper Jay Z’s favorite songs of 2022 and was one of the top 10 most-searched songs on Google that year, one of only two non-Asian songs with Harry Styles’ “As It Was”.
The vast bulk of Burna Boy’s status as one of the richest musicians in Nigeria is attributable to exposure through streaming, with his song “It’s Plenty” being named one of 2022’s most streamed songs.
He made history in 2021 when he won the 63rd Annual Grammy Award for Best World Music Album, becoming the first Nigerian solo artist to win the prize.
Being one of the richest musicians in Nigeria in 2023, Burna Boy derives a significant portion of his income from
touring and ticket sales. In April, he became the first Nigerian musician to headline a sold-out show in New York City’s Madison Square Garden.
Burna Boy’s standing as one of the richest musicians in Nigeria is said to have increased by at least $7.3 million
thanks to this sold-out venue of 20,789 people.
Burna has a home with eight bedrooms in Lekki, Lagos, as well as a number of expensive vehicles, including a Range Rover Autobiography, a 2022 Lamborghini Urus Novitec Edition, a 2013 Ferrari 458 Italia, and a Rolls-Royce Dawn Convertible.
