“Imagine growing up and only politicians and oil men were the ones really getting real money followed by G boys. Music was not even in the conversation wen money was the topic,” he said.

He, however, revealed that there have been changes as he has been able to make money through music and is now richer than ninety per cent of the people he looked up to as billionaires.

Burna Boy added that it was why he never looked down on young people, as they could become as rich as Elon Musk in future.

“Now an ugly black musician from Port Harcourt got more money that ninety per cent o f the people he looked up to as money makers. This is why I never count any young people out, because they could be ELon Musk tomorrow typing his same message,” he added.
