• According to him, only a few are making money at the moment.

Talent manager Paulo Okoye has expressed his concerns about the current state of Afrobeats, stating that the genre is facing a decline.

“Afrobeats is going through a lot lately!! Every Afrobeat artist was doing way better 3 years ago compared to today!!

Only a few are making money at the moment, and that’s a fact!!
