In a recent interview with Apple Music, the host brought up the fact that a quick Google search revealed that he is worth $22 million. He also questioned whether the information was accurate or not.
Upon hearing the value, Burna Boy burst into laughter for a few seconds before regaining his composure.
He eventually stated that it is better for people to believe he is worth that amount, but he indicated that the reported amount is significantly off the mark.
However, he didn’t specify whether the reported amount was too high or too low.
It’s worth nothing that the Grammy award-winning Afrobeats sensation once claimed that he made $100 million in a year.

A while back, Burna Boy angered netizens with his criticism of Afrobeats.
Burna Boy said that most Afrobeat musicians lack life experiences, which renders their music empty, in an interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe.
He characterized Afrobeat music as exciting and entertaining but devoid of real-life experiences.
Burna Boy characterized musicians as having their own ups and downs in life, including good days, terrible days, and difficult moments that surround the creation of music.
The self-acclaimed African Giant discussed the necessity for artists to incorporate real-life experiences into their works of art, noting that the genre is “literally nothing”.
