Olamide rated as Nigeria's highest paid artiste

According to popular artiste manager Alex Ozone, Olamide is currently the highest paid Nigerian musician. He came to this conclusion based on his experience working in the music industry. 

Ozone also said even though the likes of Davido, Wizkid, Tekno, Kiss Daniel and others are worth a fortune, the YBNL CEO is highly sought after not just in the country but all over the world despite the fact that he sings mostly in local dialect Yoruba.

“The business doesn’t have a fixed price, it depends on the artiste; I cannot tell you how much each of them is worth. But like I told you, I have worked with Wizkid, Tekno, Oritsefemi, Patoranking, Davido, Terry G, Kiss Daniel, YQ, Skales, Olamide, and Timaya.

They are all good, they know their worth, but in the whole world Olamide has the highest rate”, he said in a statement sent to NAIJ.com. Ozone has been in the business of organising foreign shows for Nigerian artists for years and he can tell their worth based on his working relationship with them.
