Burna Boy, one of the most popular and successful musicians in Africa reportedly charges $1 million or more per show. This was revealed by the Chief Executive Officer of Cole Management Services, Adeshola Adefuwa-Cole in a chat with Potpourri.
Cole said, “Currently, Burna Boy is number 1 as he charges 1 million dollars or more per show. Wizkid charges between 800 thousand dollars to 1 million dollars. Davido is in third place and he charges around 500 thousand dollars, followed by Olamide who also charges 500 thousand dollars.”
He further explained that besides the fixed performance fees charged, there are other things to be taken into consideration as the artists make other demands for themselves and their crew as part of convenience for the show.
