“Billionaires Are the Biggest Debtors – Spyro 

Nigerian singer Spyro has sparked conversation online after calling out wealthy individuals—particularly billionaires—for their alleged habit of refusing to pay for services rendered.

In a strongly worded message posted to his Instagram story, the singer didn’t hold back, criticizing the behavior of those who, despite their wealth, often expect freebies.

Expressing his frustration, Spyro pointed out that some of the wealthiest people he has encountered are the most reluctant to pay for creative work or professional services. He emphasized that such behavior should not be directed toward him, as he has put in years of effort to build his brand and success and deserves to be compensated accordingly.

“I’m not poor,” the artist stated firmly, making it clear that he values his worth and won’t tolerate being shortchanged. He went on to slam the hypocrisy of some billionaires, noting that while they have no problem spending lavishly—especially on women—they become evasive or disrespectful when it’s time to pay for actual value or work done.

“The people that owe the most are the rich,” Spyro lamented. “They’re always looking for freebies—especially your so-called billionaires. They’ll blow hundreds of millions on women but act up when it comes to paying for genuine value.”

His comments have since stirred reactions on social media, with many weighing in on the entitlement that often accompanies wealth and the broader conversation around respecting creatives and their work.
