In a recent chat with Punch, Nigerian singer Oritse Femi whose latest hit "Double Wahala" is making waves revealed that his first fee as an artiste was 5 million naira in 2004/2005 and he now charges nothing less than 3 million for a show. In his words he said:
"I went solo in 2006. That was the first time a marketer paid me N5 million for my first single, "Flop Politician’. The money changed my life. Things have definitely changed. I don’t charge less than N3m for a show now. Sometimes, we have concerts funded by multinational companies and we have to tour 20 states. Now, calculate N3m multiplied by 20. The situation has indeed improved."
