Top Twenty Musicians In Nigeria & Their Net Worth

Music has been paying heavily in Nigeria for the
past ten years. No wonder average Nigerian
youths sees music as the quick means to wealth
and fame. Why not! When a good number of
artistes have risen from nothing to something
over the years, enjoying wealth that can only be
imagined by average people. The question is Who
is the richest among these musicians and how
much are they worth? Before you read, I want you
to have these in mind:-
1. Net Worth does not necessarily mean the
amount of money you have in the bank. It is how
much you worth as an asset base on your works,
your achievements, investments, and popularity.
2. Album/music sells is not the only means
musicians makes money. They make much more
money in – YouTube partnership, Loyalties,
ringtones, concerts, sponsorship and
endorsements, and appearances.
These were factored into this rating to come up
with robust, time tested ranking. The best and
most accurate you can find anywhere on the
internet.
3. This list is dynamic – it changes from time to
time. Someone who is on this ranking today may
not be there tomorrow.
4. If you have an objection, state it in a civil
manner, utilizing the comment system below.
In music, your popularity determines your worth,
you don’t make shit if you are not popular
because popularity is what determines
appearance and endorsement fees. What are the
metrics to measure the popularity of an artiste?
The number one means of finding out how
popular a musician or music is, is by checking
out the YouTube stat. If you are popular, it will
show on your YouTube views, no manipulation.
And if you have a great stat on YouTube, you are
a great artiste, making good money even from
YouTube.
Another means is through awards but since most
music awards are heavily manipulated, we are
going to skip awards and use other metrics such
as endorsement and ability to pull crowed and
command good appearance fees. Self promotion
isn’t gonna count in this rating.
Here I present to you the top 20 richest
musicians in Nigeria and their estimated net
worth. Like I said before, this list is the most
detailed and most accurate you can find
anywhere on the internet. Enjoy!
20. Patoranking – This guy is making name for
himself in the music industry in Nigeria and it’s
not surprising that he made the top 20 richest
musicians in Nigeria despite that it’s not been
quite long since he breaks into the limelight.
His hit song (Girlie O) featuring Tiwa Savage has
grossed over 4 million views on YouTube as the
time this article was being written. Patoranking’s
net worth is estimated to be – $1.75m
19. Yemi Alade – How she made it? I don’t know,
but she is currently the biggest female musician
in Nigeria after Tiwa Savage and may overtake
Tiwa in a couple of years if not months. The first
day I heard “Jonny” played in my car by one of
the Nigerian F.M Station, I knew something
serious was about to hit us.
Yemi currently has the most successful and most
popular music video by any African female artiste
on YouTube. The total views for “JONNY” as at

seen in Africa. He does it like no other, providing

music.

with Phyno for good reasons. He is hot in the
