“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 singer Spyro speaks on his values, morals, and how he applies them to his work.
He shared that when shooting music videos, he does not tolerate certain things because they do not align with his beliefs.
“You can’t be in a video with me and you’re smoking. That can’t happen. You can’t be in a video with me and you’re naked. That won’t happen. I have rules and regulations for working with people.
“I can’t be on a song that is not clean, to start with. Shoday, give your life to Christ. I said, ‘Shoday, give your life to Christ.’ He said I should continue mine while he focuses on his. Even if he’s not with Christ, he’s coming to Christ. That’s why I’m in this industry. It’s a gradual process.”
Babcock University makes headlines as it speaks regarding content creator Carter Efe, who claimed that he studied at the school and graduated with a first-class degree.
When asked for proof, he shared a certificate that stated “First Class Upper.” However, the university has now spoken out, stating that the certificate is not from the school and is forged.
“Babcock University does not issue ‘Honorary Certificates’ in recognition of undergraduate academic performance. Academic excellence, including the award of First Class Honours, is formally recognized only through the University’s official degree certificate and academic transcript issued by the Office of the Registrar.”
“There is no academic classification or degree known to Babcock University as ‘First Class Upper.’ The recognized classification is First Class Honours.”
