Grammy-award-winning singer, Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, aka Burna Boy has revealed that he has made more money from his hit song ‘Last Last’ than any other song in his career.
The African giant made this known in a viral video weeks after revealing that iconic American singer, Toni Braxton, gets 60 per cent of the revenue from the single.
‘Last Last’ featured samples of Braxton’s 2000 single “He Wasn’t Man Enough” and since Burna Boy released the song on May 13th, 2022, it has trended worldwide with remixes and challenges on Tiktok.
The singer also clarified that his previous statement about the 60 per cent royalties to Toni Braxton for the sound for ‘Last Last is just a small part.
Burna Boy said: “The 60% royalties that Toni Braxton takes is being misunderstood, she does not get 60% of the whole thing but just one nickel part.
“I’ve made more money from ‘Last Last’ than any other song in my whole career in a short time and I just dropped it like one month ago.”
Burna Boy clarifies the 60% deal with Toni Braxton on his ‘Last Last’ record contrary to what many believed.
He even goes further to say he’s made more money off the song than any other song he’s made.
