What Is BaseNaija
We break down how much artists earn from streaming platforms by turning real numbers into simple naira figures anyone can understand.
How We Get Our Figures
Every artist gets a Measured or Modeled label on each platform. Measured means the number comes from real stream or view. Modeled means there is no public numbers anywhere, so we estimate it using data built from measured ones.
Platforms We Track
Right now we track Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, Audiomack and Boomplay, since that's where most streaming in Nigeria and across Africa happens. These platforms all report real numbers, except Apple Music, which has no public stream data, so it's estimated.
Why These Are Estimates
No streaming service tells the public what it pays artists. What they earn depends on their deal, distributor's cut and other factors we can't see from the outside. What we publish is a realistic range based on public stream data and industry payout rates.
Who Uses BaseNaija
Fans use it to see how their favourite artists are doing beyond streams and followers. Journalists use it as a reference, while artists and managers use it to compare their numbers with others in the same space.
