THE MUSE (Season II)

The Muse Season II is here, evening of Music, Drama, Poems etc.

ABOUT THE PLAY “The Sisters”:
It is about the battle with bitter truth and painful reality. It unravels the vanity and deceit that characterize the lives of the high in society and stresses also, the transiency of political power and social status.
The president’s death provides an occasion for the sisters to come to grips with these realities and to re-examine their lives after all the disappointments and misfortunes they have been through.

The Sisters is one long, tortuous movement of shocking revelations that demonstrate that fact that all humanity is flawed and that we know very little about ourselves and the world.

TOP 10 RICHEST NIGERIAN MUSICAL ARTISTES

Music has been paying heavily in Nigeria for the past ten years. No wonder average Nigerian youths sees music as the quick means to wealth and fame.
The number one means of knowing how popular a musician or music is, is by checking out it’s YouTube stat. If you are popular, it will show on your YouTube views, no manipulation. And if you have a great stat on YouTube, you are a great artiste, making good money.
Another means is through awards but since most music awards are heavily manipulated, we are going to skip awards and use other means such as endorsement and ability to pull crowed and command good appearance fee. Self promotion isn't gonna count in this rating.
Here I present to you the top 10 richest musicians in Nigeria and their estimated net worth. This list is the most detailed and most accurate you can find anywhere on the internet. Enjoy!
10. TIMAYA – Timaya’s vocal power is unmatched in the industry. He is one one the best and probably the most successful music star ever come out of the Niger Delta area. Far more successful than Daniel Wilson and others. He is truly the “Egberi Papa 1 of Bayelsa”.
One of his hit track “Sanko” is about to hit 2 million views while his biggest hit “Bum Bum” featuring Sean Paul has already grossed over 16 million on YouTube. Timaya net worth is – N1.1billion
9. BANKY W – Two best music videos ever done in Nigeria to his credit (Lagos Party and Wizkid’s Holla at ur Boy) and a serious record label of his own, Banky W is surely a force to reckon with in the Music business in Nigeria.
