Popular Nigerian afrobeats star, Burna Boy, has revealed that American RnB star, Toni Braxton, gets 60% in royalties on his last single ‘Last Last.’
The Grammy award winner revealed that he always wanted to sample Toni Braxton’s 2000 R&B hit, ‘He Wasn’t Man Enough’ and he eventually got music producer, Chopsticks, to make it happen.
The Afro beats megastar revealed that although Toni Braxton gets 60% of the royalties from the single, he was fine with it as his only concern was making a great song.
Since the release of the single ‘Last Last’, it has enjoyed wide success both in Nigeria and internationally and the song’s popularity contributed to shock the revelation generated on social media.
While Burna Boy is a successful digital artist, his live shows account for a huge part of his earning. With a catalogue and statesmanship that has helped him to sell out arenas across Europe.
