Many Kenyans are aware that gospel artiste Willy Paul terribly failed in his KCSE exam-he scored a D, but with his almost useless grade, he manages to make more than a university lecturer.
This boy lives in a very expensive apartment, in a neighborhood where if your monthly rent is Ksh 40,000, everybody will laugh at you.Willy Paul drives a sleek Mercedes Benz, which he acquired after making his first millions.
This gospel artiste, in a bad day, like January, he charges Ksh 100,000 per performance. The amount doubles during festive season and special events like weddings and church functions. In a good month, Willy Paul performs 15 times, meaning that he is able to make up to Ksh 1.5 million per month.
If you didnโt know, gospel artistes mint some good cash from the industry, which is why Size 8 decided in a single night that she would change his genre, and for sure she is now a gospel artiste.
The average income of a gospel artiste in Kenya is Ksh 250,000 per month, but people like Size 8,Willy Paul,Rufftone and Bahati are in their own league.
