    1. He spoke english somewhere over the weekend and was quickly beaten to death

    2. Either his phone is bad and since he has no job it'll take quite a while to replace OR his data plan expired and it'll take earned money to come back on. Then again, Maybe someone borrowed his dictionary to go write Post UME and ain't brought it back yet.

  49. what Davido and the rest dont understand is that the ranking is based on bankability i.e. between your name, your endorsements, crowd appeal across Africa and your assets how much are you worth? Its not a measurement of liquid cash. To put this in perspective, if Davido and Don Jazzy walked into a bank to ask for a loan, what music-related asset could they provide as security for that loan. I would readily give P-square, 2face et al a loan based on receivables from their next concert anywhere in Africa. On the other hand however, people are entitled to their own opinions and don't have to agree with Forbes

    1. Having said that, what made most mess of the list is ranking Wizkid higher than 2face. It just doesn't follow, do they know since when 2face has been singing at the highest level, how much he would have invested since then? Wizkid just started out some 3 years ago. It just can't be

Come on its davido s jst a spoilt brat, infact I totally agree dat he doesn not deserved to b. On d forbes list. All davido does is spend n show off pls linda we dnt.

  72. Forbes just assumed so manu things...wizkid cant be richer than the likes of 2face,bankyw n fally ipupa...I guess what davido meant by that is that he knows everyone on that list n knows who is who...donjazzy can't be richer than 2face,dbanj and psquare. Lai lai. All forbes uses is the deals and recent performances. What about longevity..2face n bankyw have been making millions b4 wizkid came on board and they still charge more than wizkid for a show. Shey na ritual money wizkid do ni?.

  122. Because they have something objective moneywise going on? Davido, Forbes is objective. They don't go by fame unless that is the measure. when it comes to measuring worth, they use objective indicators. As it turns out, ya did not make the top 10.

  124. People keep Comparing Naeto C with Davido. Well I will say it and with fact, Davido's dad is miles richer than Naeto C's mum wella. There is no comparison, If he gets too much access to his fathers wealth then no artist will even be able to compete in terms of wealth.
