Nigerian media personality Daddy Freeze has ignited mixed reactions with a recent social media post listing the richest artists in Nigeria. This announcement comes during an ongoing feud between music stars Wizkid and Davido, with the “Essence” hitmaker throwing shade at Davido by calling him cheap, talentless, and overrated. Many speculate that the rivalry may stem from Davido’s lucrative Puma deal and UBA endorsements.
On October 7, 2024, Daddy Freeze shared an updated list on his verified Instagram account, which claims that Davido tops the chart with an estimated net worth of $100 million. Following him is Don Jazzy, the CEO of Mavin Records, with a net worth of $50 million. Grammy winner Burna Boy (Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu) ranks third with $30 million, while Wizkid is in fourth place with a net worth of $25 million. Rounding out the top five is Rema, known for his hit “Calm Down,” with $15 million.
According to the rankings shared by Daddy Freeze, Davido is four times wealthier than Wizkid and has a combined net worth greater than that of Wizkid and Burna Boy together. The post congratulating Davido has since gone viral.
Reactions to Daddy Freeze's post have been mixed, with some users criticizing him for presenting what they consider false information. Comments from social media users included:
iamr0land: “So Davido got more money than Wizkid and Burna? 😂 Y’all be playing 😂.”
voicedbyetta: “Watch them come for Daddy Freeze 😹😹. You can actually support your fav without fighting anyone.”
