See Who Is Richer Than Who In Naija Entertainment Industry

A controversial list has been released by Forbes in conjunction with Channel O of what is described as the Top 10 richest African musicians in 2013. I hear the ranking is based on artist Sales, Social-Media presence, endorsement value, YouTube views, show rates, influence, appearance in newspapers, investments, popularity, etc. Many say they don't agree with the list, as it concern Naija artiste.
