BNXN has shared his view on the ongoing debate over whether musicians or athletes earn more money.
During a livestream with streamer Ojo, the Afrobeats star said NBA players are wealthier than most Nigerian musicians.
BNXN said his friendships with several NBA players have given him insight into their earnings.
I am friends with a few NBA players. These guys have so much money. Nigerian artists do not even have as much money as them.
Using Jaylen Brown as an example, the singer argued that top basketball players operate in a different financial league.
NBA players are insanely rich. A player of Jaylen Brown’s calibre have so much money. Afrobeats are not close to athletes in terms of earnings.
The remarks have reignited conversations among fans about the difference in earning power between the music and sports industries.
