Ghanaian dancehall musician Stonebwoy has opened up about the wealth he has amassed from his stint in the Ghana music industry.
Over the years, the BHIM Nation leader has achieved significant success as a bonafide music superstar in Ghana and on the international stage.
Stonebwoy recently released his highly anticipated sixth studio album, Up and Runnin6, following the strides of his 5th Dimension album, which was released in 2023.
The Burninton Music Group CEO has bagged many high-profile awards, including two BET Best International Act awards in 2015 and 2017.
Stonebwoy has also landed numerous endorsement deals with prominent brands like TECNO Ghana and Ghandour Cosmetics.
Despite his vast wealth, the dancehall musician has lived a modest lifestyle in public and rarely flaunts his properties, unlike some of his colleagues in the Ghanaian music industry.
Stonebwoy brags about his wealth
Musician Stonebwoy held an X space session to speak about his new album and interact with his numerous fans.
In an interaction with prominent content creator Kwadwo Sheldon, the dancehall musician was asked if he had seen $10 million. He shared that he had never physically seen and held the whopping amount in his hand.
The Jejereje hitmaker noted that a single song from him was worth 30 billion based on the quantification of his net worth.
He said:
"I can quantify that a single song from me is worth 30 billion. It is a creative material. It is left for someone to give me money and tell me they value my stuff at that price."
Spice lauds Stonebwoy for bringing her to Ghana for the first time: "Been in the music industry for 25 years"
Stonebwoy also added that he owned three swimming pools in three different houses in Ghana.
Yaw Boadu-Ayeboafoh on Stonebwoy's music valuation
In a conversation with YEN.com.gh, entertainment analyst Yaw Boadu-Ayeboafoh shared his thoughts on Stonebwoy's valuation of his music.
He said:
"Although it is an obvious over-evaluation, to the creator of the art, it will always be evaluated higher than normal. However, in the real world with real evaluation tools, I doubt his song is even close to that evaluation."
