He said that after he made those statements, many people assumed that Toni Braxton was receiving a chunk of the money made from 'Last Last'.
He further explained that the 60 per cent he spoke about is only for a portion of the income the song will generate.
“The 60 per cent royalties that Toni Braxton takes is being misunderstood, she does not get 60 per cent of the whole thing but just one small 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.”
The ‘Last Last’ hit song was released in May 2022, and has by far been a worldwide success with fans jamming to it worldwide.
Burna Boy first debuted the song at his recently sold-out concert in New York’s Madison Square Garden in April 2022.
In a previous interview, Burna Boy aka Odogwu, shared that he directed the music video and used his mansion in Lagos as the location for the shoot. Also, the song is a breakup song which reflected on his past relationships, especially the recent one with Stefflon Don.
