Afrobeats singer Daniel Benson, popularly known as BNXN, has shared his opinion on the debate on who is richer between musicians and athletes.

The ‘Finesse’ crooner said aside from footballers, NBA players are far richer than most musicians.

BNXN explained that he is friends with some NBA players and from his experience with them, Nigerian artists are not as rich as American basketballers.

Speaking during a recent livestream with steamer Ojo, the singer said, “I am friends with a few NBA players. These guys have so much money. Nigerian artists don’t even have as much money as them.

“NBA players are insanely rich. A player of Jaylen Brown’s calibre have so much money. Afrobeats are not close to athletes in terms of earnings.”
