– Grammy-award-winning Burna Boy has made it known that his buzzing song ‘Last Last’ is garnering massive numbers.
– The Afrobeats megastar with real name Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu, revealed he made more money off the 2022 hit single than on any of the songs in his hugely successful career.
– Burna Boy made this revelation in his latest interview on Shopping For Sneakers. In the interview, he further revealed that while Toni Braxton gets 60% of the streaming royalties off his hit single ‘Last Last’, her percentage is just a small fraction of the earnings as opposed to the general interpretation the revelation generated.
