“I Have More Money Than 90% Of People I Looked Up To” – Burna Boy Brags

Nigerian Afrobeats superstar, Burna Boy has shared a message about his journey from humble beginnings to wealth.

In an Instagram post, Burna Boy shared a personal reflection on his path to success, expressing pride in his achievements while making it clear why he doesn’t look down on others.

Growing up, he recalled that financial success was mostly tied to politicians, oil tycoons, and individuals involved in fraudulent activities, commonly referred to as “Yahoo boys.”

Having come a long way from his roots in Port Harcourt, Burna Boy bragged that he has surpassed most of the people he once admired as examples of financial success.

Using his story to inspire others, the musician encouraged his fans not to underestimate anyone’s potential.

He wrote, “Imagine growing up and only politicians and oil men were the ones really getting REAL money followed by the G boys. Music was not even in the conversation when money was the Topic.

“Now, an ugly black musician from Port Harcourt got more money than 90% of the people he looked up to as moneymakers. This is why I never count any you h people out, because they could be Elon Musk 2moro typing this same message.”
