Nasboi, a well-known content creator and singer, has shared his perspective on how profitable social media influencing and skitmaking can be. He admitted that, because of how much money some content creators were making, he initially thought popular skit makers like Sydney Talker were involved in Internet fraud. It wasn’t until he joined the industry that he realized they were simply benefiting from the creativity and opportunities it offers.
During his appearance on the Bahd And Boujee Podcast, co-hosted by reality star Tolanibaj and actress Moet Abebe, Nasboi mentioned that many people still suspect skit makers and influencers of engaging in fraudulent activities. This skepticism, he explained, stems from a lack of understanding of just how lucrative the creative industry can be.
He said: “Before I became a skit maker, I could beat my chest that Sydney was a Yahoo boy [internet fraudster]. Because I didn’t know how lucrative the creative industry was until I joined.

“A lot of female influencers and skit makers are also being trolled. Social media users often accuse them of sleeping with men for money but they don’t know these female influencers make a lot of money from endorsements and advertisements.
“Yahoo [internet scam] is stressful. It’s not even as lucrative as skit making. There are some skit makers who are not popular but earn huge amounts of money. I know someone who made $33,000 off a video on Facebook. He is not even popular.”
