However, the list of the top 50 richest musicians in Africa that you will see below is believed to be the most current and up-to-date available.

 

Let’s explore and discover who the richest musicians in Africa are right now, shall we?

 

Top 10 Richest Musician in Africa 2023

 

Being listed as one of the top 10 richest musicians in Africa is a dream come true for many artists from the continent.

 

Imagine the incredible feeling you’d have when you search on Google and see your name occupying the #1 spot on the list of top 10 richest musicians in Africa for 2023.

 

If you can find a word to describe that feeling, please share it in the comments below. I’d love to hear what it’s like.

 

Africa is blessed with abundant talent and resources, yet it is puzzling why there isn’t as much wealth as expected.

 

Out of all the musicians on the richest musician in Africa top 10 list, only Akon made it to the top 50 richest musicians in the world list.

 

Surprisingly, even Davido’s fortune isn’t enough to get him on the world’s richest musicians list. It makes you wonder, doesn’t it? Now, let’s take a look at how much cash these talented musicians currently have.

 

Akon Worth $190 Million

 

Akon peaked at number 1 in the Shoutmeceleb list of top 20 richest musicians in Africa 2022.

 

while most of you may know him for doing songs with legends like Michael Jackson. and Lionel Richie, I respectively say that Lonely is the song that drew me to Akon.

 

His voice I feel sets him apart from other African richest musicians. so without further ado let’s dive into some of the details about Akon.

 

Aliaune Damala Badara Akon Thiam is an African- American singer, songwriter, record producer, entrepreneur, philanthropist, and actor.

 

Akon’s success started after the recording of locked up which is a song off his debut studio album Trouble.

Like Youssou Ndour Akon is also a Senegalese but spent his childhood growing up. In two different countries which is Senegal and the United state of America which is his place of birth.

 

Aliaune Damala is the son of a Senegal dancer and a father who is a percussionist. But he was born in St Missouri US.

 

Akon learned how to play several musical instruments including Drum, guitar, and Djembe at the age of 12.

 

The songwriter currently has 3 studio albums and several mixtapes with singles running to 100s.

 

Here is a list of his albums!

 

• Trouble 2004

 

• Konvict – 2006

 

• Freedom – 2008

 

Konvicted received three nominations for the Grammy Awards in two categories.

 

Best Contemporary R&B Album for Konvicted album and Best Rap/Sung Collaboration for “Smack That” and “I Wanna Love You”

 

On billboard Hot 100 Akon is the first solo artist whose song got debuted at number 1 and 2 consecutively twice.

 

Maybe I should chalk it to being better at what you do. But do you know that Akon has more than ten songs certified as gold in digital sales?

 

But wait is not all!

 

He has hit the certified platinum on several occasions with more than 10 of his songs. Recording 1X platinum

 

What Does it Mean to Go Gold or Platinum?

 

Probably you don’t know what it means “Going Gold or Platinum” so let me explain that easily.

 

You know the way in science there is a term attributed to everything on earth right?

Well, in the music industry, going Gold means you have sold over 500,000 copies of your songs.

 

And going platinum simply means you have doubled that sale to 1 million copies. Hope you understand now?

 

Similarly, when I said Akon has more than 10 songs on 1x platinum, I meant he has more than 10 songs. Which have sold 1 million copies.

 

2x platinum means the song has sold 2 million copies. And 3x platinum means the song has sold 3million copies.

 

Badara has 4 songs that have sold 2 million copies worldwide(2x platinum) and 3 songs which have sold over 3 million copies worldwide.

 

So how does the Senegalese American earn his living?

 

Did I tell you that Akon is the founder of 2 record labels?

 

I guess I did not!

 

One of the singer’s sources of income is through his record label Konvict Music and Konvictdistributionn.

 

When my team and I valued his worth, we found Akon’s worth to be 190 million US dollars.

 

So here are some facts to take home:

 

Real Name: Aliaune Damala Badara Akon Thiam

 

Stage Name: Akon

 

Date of Birth:  April 16, 1973

 

Record Label: Konvict Music and KonvictDistribution

 

Nationality: Senegal and United State of America

 

Sources of income: Music, Record Labels and Business

 

Net Worth: $190 Million

 

Youssou Ndour Worth $120 Million

 

If there is one man that is very much celebrated during his time at the peak of his career.

 

That man would be Youssou Ndour. I like how Wikipedia wrote it when the site said: N’Dour is one of the most celebrated African musicians in history.

 

His mix of traditional Senegalese mbalax with eclectic influences ranging from Cuban rumba to hip hop, jazz, and soul won him an international fan base of millions.

 

But who is he then?

 

I certainly am going to indulge you because if there is anything I love,t would be telling. Stories like my mother who once enchanted me with her storytelling ability.

 

Youssou Ndour is a Senegalese like Akon and he was born in the year 1959 on the 1st of October.

 

The interesting thing about his birth is the fact that he was born a year before Nigeria got her independence.

 

N’dour is a Senegalese singer, songwriter, and actor. One of the movies he debuted in is Amazing Grace, a movie centered on the abolishment of the slave trade.

 

Here is how the New York Times described him: “his voice as an “arresting tenor, a supple weapon deployed with prophetic authority”

 

He was born to a Toucouler mother and Serer father and began his career at the early age of 12.

 

Considering this post is on his net worth, I won’t touch more on his biography. But, you can learn more about him here.

So What is his source of wealth?

 

Youssou Ndour is a businessman and a politician, I don’t know about Senegal.

 

but if you are a politician in my country that’s a huge criterion to be a millionaire.

 

don’t take my word for it lolz!

 

Occasionally he acts in movies and gets paid too. The fact that he is a composer means that he also gets paid writing songs for others.

 

In the movie Amazing Grace he is the musician behind the soundtrack of the film

 

Here is take home from this:

In 2018 during an interview, Yomzansi blog said Black Coffee spoke about creating a new Africa, his music, his next big venture: GongBox, and other investments.

 

Dj Black Coffee is valued at 60 million US dollars. thanks to the success of several of his albums and business investments.

Davido’s net worth has often been compared with that of Wizkid due to the fact that these two are the best in Nigeria.

 

But there isn’t much to talk about that other than the constant comparison between the two on who is Nigeria’s richest musician.

 

You can say Davido has done a lot for the movement of modern-day Afrobeat alongside other humanitarian activities.

 

The interesting thing is that since Mr. P and Rudeboy split in 2017, these two have topped the list. Check out this post where I elaborated on Davido and Wizkid’s net worth more.

 

David has always been some of the fan’s favorite in Nigeria because of his active social media presence.

But if there is anything that is almost peculiar about him, it is that he loves to support others and help them achieve success

 

David was born in Atlanta Georgia of the United States of America. He is the son of Adedeji Adeleke who is a Nigerian billionaire.

 

David is currently 29 years and he was born in the early 90s Precisely 1992.

 

The singer recorded songs like IF, Fall, and Fai which I usually call The triple F. you can say the 3 songs were all a success.

 

Because when writing this blog post Fall moved 7 points upward on Billboard.

 

Davido is one of the top 20 most popular musicians in Nigeria thanks to his singing, production, and acting skills.

 

But wait!

 

What is The singer’s sources of income?

Davido makes money from his music, and endorsement deals. and one of the most recent is Travelbeta.

I like to think that poverty is a choice right?

 

But would you agree with me on this?

 

Honestly, you really don’t have to but here is what I think.

 

There’s no difference between the man who is Rich and the one that is poor…

 

The only difference I have seen while meeting with several young people like myself is the fact that we want to be rich but not ready to put in the work.

 

Wizkid isn’t one of the generations that didn’t do anything and got rich overnight right!

 

I talked about that more when I wrote about Wzkid net worth and biography. in that article, I covered more about it so you should check it out too.

 

Starboy was born in the year 1990 in Lagos State. and he is a singer, songwriter, and performer.

 

He debuted with his first song Holla at your boy in 2010. the song was a single off his debut studio album Superstar.

That is how his breakthrough started as a singer and amazingly today he is the proud owner of his own record label and has several endorsement deals.

 

So how does he make his wealth?

 

Music has been the number one thing I love to do the singer said. while pushing a strong narrative Africa to the world during his interview with REDTV.

 

Money keeps pumping in from several sources including his clothing lineup but most noteworthy is the singer’s record label Starboy Records.

Don Jazzy Worth 20.8 Million US Dollars

 

If you want to make a list of the best African musicians, somehow, you can’t forget to mention names. like Don Jazzy because of the influence they have put in to grow music in Africa.

 

As a result of his Love for music, several Stars like Tiwa Savage have risen to prominence. you can’t take that away because if you call Tiwa then know Mavin records is close by.

 

Although Mavin Queen is now signed to Universal Music Group. after she left a heart-throbbing goodbye to the record label that made her.

 

Don Jazzy was born in the year 1982. and he is a record producer, singer, and most recently an entrepreneur.

 

After his first record label failed while in partnership with D’banj. the singer decided to raise a new record label called Mavin records.

 

Michael Collins Ajereh has worked with the likes of Kanye West and Jay Z. but one of his memorable songs remains Dorobucci and the most recent Mavin all is in order.

It covers his growing up, career, and everything you probably need to know.

Koffi Olomide Worth 18 Million US Dollars

 

Another singer that I have come to love over the years is Koffi Olomide. most especially because of his impact in the music industry.

 

Plus it only makes sense if he is included as the richest musician in Africa right?

 

I still remember that Fally Ipupa and Ferre Gola are all past members of his Quartier Latin International Orchestra.

 

A group that was founded in Kinshasa DR Congo in 1986  purely to entertain Congolese and other African countries.

 

Similarly, this group also often tours Europe and other North American countries according to Wikipedia.

 

As a result of his impact on the African music industry. Koffi Olomude has earned a spot in SMCE top 20 richest singers in Africa.

 

But you might be wondering who is he, right?

Well Olomide is a Congolese singer, guitarist, vocalist, composer, dancer, and entertainer

 

and he was born in the year 1956 in Kisangani, Democratic Republic of Congo.

 

He has worked with artists like Bouro Mpela who much like Fally Ipupa. was part of the group he formed in the mid-80s.

 

The Soukous singer and producer has had Gold record much like his African brother Akon.

 

In the coming days, I will write explicitly about his net worth and biography. but for now, knock yourself out with this article am sure there is lots of important stuff there.

 

Did you know that he was once a backup vocalist for his fallen friend Papa Wemba?

 

I mean Koffi Olomide Wake Up hit was made possible due to the feature of Papa Wemba.

 

He is currently estimated to have a net worth of 18 million US dollars.

 

Antoine Christophe Agbepa Mumba makes money from music, record label, and his business.

 

The singer has more than 10 albums to his name, check out a complete list of his albums here.

 

Key takeaways!

 

Real Name: Antoine Christophe Agbepa Mumba

 

Stage Name: Koffi Olomide

 

Date of Birth: July 13th, 1956

 

Record Label: Koffi Olomide records

 

Nationality: Kisangani Dr Congo

 

Sources of Income: Music, Record Label

 

Net Worth: $18 million

 

Fally Ipupa Worth $17 million

 

African is filled with impeccable raw talents and among such talents is Fally Ipupa.

 

I think the Congolese are a country of raw and talented musicians ranging from Papa Wemba to Koffi Olumide, Werrason, and more.

 

Ipupa was born in the year 1977 and he is a singer, songwriter, philanthropist, and dancer.

 

Before flying a solo career Fally was part of the Koffi Olomude music group Quartier Latin International Orchestra.

 

The group performs in African countries, Europe and North America before the singer decided it is time. To chase his own dream and write his name in the book of history like every other African.

But did that decision pay off?

 

I bet you can’t even list some of the top 10 African musicians without enlisting his name.

 

His rise to fame came in the form of his 2006 album Droit Chemin. and ever since then you can say he has been unstoppable whilst winning several awards.

 

he won Césaire music male artist of the gear in Paris, two Black Music Awards for Male Artist of the Year, Best clip in Benin, and Male Artist of the year in Ivory Coast.

 

The Great One is what the Congolese call him and being born in Kinshasa can mean music is engraved in your DNA.

 

The singer was signed into a universal music group and further shared the stage with the likes of 2face, Snoop Lion, Dbanj, and more.

 

So what are his sources of wealth?

 

The guitarist and dancer make his money from music and international shows. Being signed by a brand like UMG can mean more money.

 

Fally Ipupa is currently worth 17 million US dollars with more than 3 albums to his name.

 

Here is a list of his albums

 

• Droit Chemin – 2006

 

• Power “Kosa Leka” – 2013

 

• Tokooos – 2017 July

 

• Control  – 2018

 

So here are some key takeaways:

 

Real Name: Fally Ipupa N’simba

 

Stage Name: Fally Ipupa

 

Date of Birth: December 14th, 1977

 

Record Label: UMG

 

Nationality: DR Congo, Kinshasa

Net Worth: $17 Million

 

Dbanj Worth $16.7 Million

 

Another singer who has amazed endlessly with his gift and talents is Oladapo Oyebanjo. At least that is his real name in contrast with his stage name D’banj.

 

Dbanj in his prime took Africa by storm and I can’t forget songs like Why Me and Suddenly which were hit tracks and by far still one of my favorites from the singer.

Lolz!

 

I bet he can’t be featured on Soukous because we have the likes of Fally Ipupa there raking awards home.

 

Anyways Dbanj is a Nigerian singer, songwriter, entrepreneur, and TV personality of the Afro-pop genre. His early career started at Mohits records.

 

A record label that he co-owned with Don jazzy but the label later disbanded due to. a misunderstanding that arose between the two partners.

 

Oladapo Daniel Oyebanjo was born in the year 1980 and his father and mother wanted him to be a military man. However, his destiny was music and he just went for it.

 

D’banj Why Me is the song that gained prominence in Africa and the world at large.

 

If you want to find a singer that honors Fela Kuti by fusing Afrobeat and Afropop and creating a modern sound. That resonated with lots of Nigerians then that will be Dbanj.

Tongolo announced him to Nigeria as a new star and the video was paid for by the mother. But why Me and Oliver Twist sealed and put him on a pedestal of best musicians in Nigeria.

 

Since this post is about the richest musician in Africa I would leave you to read his biography here.

 

So how does he make his money?

 

Daniel makes his money from several endorsement deals, music, and business.

 

Oyebanjo Daniel is currently worth 16.7 Million US dollars. alongside side every asset he has and owns.
