Nigerian music superstar Davido says he made a rough estimate of N12 billion in 2021 from his music and other business interests.

Despite not releasing an album this year, the artist took to his Instagram story to reveal that he “Made 22.3 million dollars this year talk to shit.”

In a recent podcast with online personality, Temisan Emmanuel, the ‘Jowo’ crooner bragged about the variety of products he is currently representing as brand ambassador.

“I get chin-chin, I get soap, I get bank, I get app, I get drink, I get Bitcoin, I get betting company wetin Dey sup,” Davido jokingly said.

On December 17, the artist announced that he had been signed as an ambassador to the German multinational athletic design company, Puma.

“Oh how good it feels , to officially be….#Pumafam #davidoxPuma,” he announced.

A few months ago Davido generated over N200 million as birthday gifts from his friends and fans in about 72 hours, all of which he donated to orphanages across the country.
