Nigerian singer Chike has spoken to the BBC's This is Africa radio programme about the financial pressures he faces after his musical success and the release of his album, The Brother's Keeper.
His family turn to him when big decisions need to be made because he is "the one who’s going to pay", he said.
"I’m not a zillionaire or a billionaire, far from that," he added, saying he's happy.
In fact, his new album's name is a direct reference to how his relationships with friends and family have changed following his success as a musical artist.
Chike came to fame through talent shows including The Voice Nigeria, and unusually, he has managed to build a career in his own right subsequently, with several hit songs to his name and an award winning first album, Boo of the Booless.
But with big success comes big responsibility he says: "With this new life I have to look after everyone that is around me. That is the reality right now."
Look out for Chike performing his songs at a festival or on a stage near you... But spare a thought for the man, don’t ask him for money!
