Nigerian music sensation Damini Ogulu, renowned by his stage name Burna Boy, has definitively addressed the lingering speculations about his net worth.
Contrary to the figures widely circulated across the internet, which suggest his net worth to be a substantial $22 million (equivalent to approximately ₦16.8 billion), Burna Boy has firmly stated that his actual net worth surpasses this estimation by a significant margin.

He said, “Hahaha. Let’s not talk about it. Well, I prefer they go that way. That is cool. But it’s inaccurate. They are way off.”
Burna Boy, known for his unapologetic authenticity, also seized the opportunity to emphasize the profound gratitude he holds for his ability to provide for his family’s financial aspirations. He conveyed that being in a position to fulfill his childhood promise to his mother, that of purchasing a house and car for her represents a paramount blessing in his life.
In his own words, Burna Boy expressed, “It’s great, man. It’s a blessing. It’s nothing short of a blessing. I always told my mum while growing up as a kid that I would buy her a house and a car someday. Another ‘I Told Them’ moment.”
As Burna Boy’s legacy continues to flourish on both the national and global stages, this clarification on his net worth underscores not only his thriving career but also his genuine appreciation for the opportunities he has been granted.
The artist’s candidness during the Complex interview further reinforces his reputation as an unfiltered and transparent voice in the music industry.
