Nigerian music star Kizz Daniel has set social media abuzz after sharing a thought-provoking take on the relationship between money and happiness. Despite his massive success in the entertainment industry, the ‘Buga’ hitmaker revealed that he still lives like a “poor man”, and not because he has to, but because of his mindset toward wealth.
In a recent post, Kizz Daniel questioned the common belief that money guarantees happiness, asking,
“Why when money comes, happiness dey always comot?”
He reflected on how many wealthy people often live in sadness despite their riches, urging fans to look beyond the curated images of joy and success often portrayed online.
When a fan replied, challenging the singer’s point by suggesting he’s always chasing money himself, Kizz Daniel responded with honesty:
“Lol… I still live like a poor man every day. Na money dey chase me instead.”
He went on to explain that he’s not discouraging the hustle but wants people to understand that wealth often brings its own set of challenges.
“Guys, I’m not saying don’t chase money, I’m just saying with money comes problems. People wey get am no go tell una the truth cuz they want to feel superior,”
he added.
This personal reflection comes just days before the release of Kizz Daniel’s highly anticipated EP ‘Uncle K’, adding another layer of depth to his public persona. Known for hit records and electrifying performances, Kizz Daniel is now showing a more introspective side, reminding fans that success isn’t always as glamorous as it seems.
As fans await new music, Kizz Daniel continues to spark meaningful conversations—this time, about wealth, mental health, and staying grounded in a world obsessed with appearances.
