Emerging music sensation Burna Boy and his
record label AristoKrat Records are N10m
richer after selling the marketing rights to his
debut album Leaving an Impact For Eternity
(L.I.F.E).
According to reports, the label sold the rights
to a popular Alaba music and movie marketer
Uba Pacific. The marketer was initially hesitant
about investing such a huge amount on a new
artiste but his fears were later doused.
The album made a record sale of 40,000 units
on the day of its release, and the amount paid
for the rights ($62,000, its equivalent) is
‘wholesome,’ going by the standards of the
Nigerian music market and the activities
pirates – a devil which most artistes dread and
haven’t been able to find a solution to.
With the artistes style and selection getting
music lovers going and attracting rave reviews
from movie critics, Burna Boy’s career is sure
to be on the rise. The Glo Ambassador released
his album less than a month ago and the hit
single, Run My Race , is already topping the
charts.
