“One Million Streams Only Pays $300 in Nigeria, Aim Higher – Burna Boy Advises Nigerian Artists
On April 8, 2025, Grammy-winning Nigerian artist Burna Boy shared his perspectives on the music industry via his Instagram story, emphasizing the contrast between online popularity and real-world success. He cautioned fellow artists against being misled by social media metrics, mentioning that Nigerian social media fans and Twitter polls do not necessarily translate to tangible support, such as filling concert venues.
Moving on, Burna Boy addressed the significant disparities in streaming revenues across different regions. He noted that one million streams generate approximately $300–$400 in Nigeria, whereas the same number of streams yield about £3,000–£4,000 in the UK, $3,000–$4,000 in the US, and €3,000–€4,000 in Europe. He advised artists to set their sights beyond achieving number one spots on Nigerian streaming platforms and to consider diversifying their income sources.
Nigerian reality star and actor Adeoluwa Okusaga, also known as Saga, shares that kissing scenes on screen are not something actors actually enjoy.
The actor shared in a recent interview that kissing is usually scripted and often has no real emotion attached to it.
“It is not easy to kiss another actor. It is weird. I have not really had any good onscreen kiss. It is weird having people invade your mouth with saliva.
“It is not something we enjoy. People think we enjoy it, but we don’t. We are just doing it for the story most times. If I had my way, I won’t kiss anyone in a film… There was a day I kissed four different girls on set.”
Nigerian actress Tonto Dikeh speaks on her failed marriage and the truth behind it. It can be noted that the actress was previously married to Churchill.
