But in 2007, he decided to pursue a career in music. In his budding years, he was mentored by popular singer Martins Okechukwu Joshua Kalu Okwun, best known as J-Martins, who also featured him and <a href=\"https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/phyno-biography-girlfriend-married\/\">Phyno<\/a> in his album, <em>Tonight.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Runtown&#8217;s popularity increased in mid-2010 following the release of\u00a0<em>Forever.<\/em> Soon after, he released several other songs and has collaborated with many artists within and outside Nigeria.

In 2011, he became one of the first artists of Penthauze before he allegedly became <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pulse.ng\/entertainment\/music\/runtown-the-full-story-of-the-drama-between-singer-and-his-record-label-eric-many\/2mlfnpx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the label&#8217;s partner<\/a>. Still, others claimed the label was co-owned by Runtown and Phyno &#8211; a claim that has not been proven. Through the label, Runtown released his first hit singles titled: <em>Activity Pikin <\/em>(2008) and <em>Pary Like It&#8217;s 1980 <\/em>(2008)<em>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Runtown was further thrust into immense popularity in 2014 when he featured Davido in <em>Gallardo,<\/em> generating over 12 million views on YouTube alone. Shortly after the epoch-making collabo, precisely on June 21, 2016, he was signed by Prince Okwudili Umenyiora&#8217;s record label, Eric-Manny Entertainment. He, however, severed his multi-million Naira contract with the label in July 2018 over the allegation that the label decided to end its affiliation with the artist for signing up and attending musical concerts without its knowledge. Runtown, on his own part, claimed that he left the label as a result of extortion, a violation in their deal, and a threat to life.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>He Allegedly Wrote Davido&#8217;s &#8216;Aye&#8217;<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Apart from singing and production, he is renowned for writing his songs. In 2014, it was rumored that Runtown wrote Davido&#8217;s hit single <em>Aye,<\/em> but the singer is yet to either confirm or deny the claim. He keeps telling people to meet Davido\u00a0to know more about the writer of the song.<\/p>\n<p>Over the course of his fast-growing music career, Runtown has further made music and has traveled the world. His style remains at its most unique peak, and his versatility remains one of his major strongholds. He says his musical influences are Sean Kingston, Bob Marley, and Kanye West.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>List of Runtown&#8217;s Singles<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>If E Happen for Lagos (2021)<\/li>\n<li>Kini Issue (2021)<\/li>\n<li>Body Riddim ft Darkovibes, Bella Shmurda (2020)<\/li>\n<li>International Badman Killa (2019)<\/li>\n<li>Redemption (2019)<\/li>\n<li>Emotions (2019)<\/li>\n<li>Oh Oh Oh (Lucie) (2019)<\/li>\n<li>Unleash (2018)<\/li>\n<li>Energy (2018)<\/li>\n<li>For Life (2017)<\/li>\n<li>Said with Nasty C (2017)<\/li>\n<li>Mad Over You (2016)<\/li>\n<li>Lagos to Kampala (2015)<\/li>\n<li>Bend Down Pause ft.

However, this figure conflicts with other sources that claim the singer has a net worth of about 700 million Naira. Others also claim that the net worth maybe about $1 million to $2 million. Since the singer has not accepted or refuted any of these claims, all the media has its claims with a larger group believing his worth amounts to $2.5 million.<\/p>\n<p>The multi-hyphenated star makes this wealth majorly from his music career, which has lasted more than a decade. This is not only in his released songs but also as a featured artist and in shows that he has attended in different parts of Nigeria and outside. Although it is not known how much exactly he charges per show, many artists of his caliber charge within the range of 1 million to 10 million Naira.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>He Also Owns A Record Label Company And Other Businesses<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Runtown also invests in music as the founder of an African Indie music label in Los Angeles called the Sound God Music Group. The company was launched in 2018 in the United States. So far, it remains unknown how much the label has paid him.<\/p>\n<p>The singer also has a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pulse.ng\/entertainment\/music\/runtown-singer-launches-indie-music-company-sound-god-music-group\/zphl0s8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">charity project<\/a> called WANA, an acronym for We Are New Africa. The project is majorly for empowerment and giving back to society through various means. However, he does not run the project alone but alongside his business partners, Ugo Mozie and Ifeanyi Nwune.<\/p>\n<p>Runtown further earns from his YouTube Channel. Although there is no certainty how much exactly he earns, YouTube is a huge vlog channel that can generate millions and billions of dollars. On average, a YouTuber can make up to $3 &#8211; $9 or more per 1000 views. Since Runtown has more than 298 million views, he probably must have earned about $100 million on an average so far on the channel.<\/p>\n<h3><b>The Singer Also Makes Money Through Endorsement Deals<\/b><\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CHRLf4IrQJ2\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"13\" style=\" background:#FFF;
