Wizkid, the multi-award winning Nigerian music superstar adds another achievement to his already impressive portfolio as he becomes Nigeria’s most streamed artiste on Spotify, leading by a whopping 4.4 billion streams.
Spotify only became available to the Nigerian audience last year February, allowing music lovers from this region to stream and download various contents available on its platform and the Nigerian audience have shown that it is Wizkid’s songs they most relate to, streaming it a cumulative total of 4.4 billion times across all credits (that is, features and joint songs included).
The second most streamed act is Burna Boy with 2.78B streams, Mr Eazi is seen chilling at the third spot with 1.33B streams while CKay is the final member of the billion club with 1.02B streams—a feat worth mentioning; 909 million streams makes OBO Davido the final member of the Top 5 most streamed Nigerian artistes on Spotify.
“Kontrol” crooner Maleek Berry, Tems—the most streamed female act, Rema, Fireboy DML and Tiwa Savage respectively round up the Top 10 list of the most streamed Nigerian artistes on Spotify. The statistics is provided through @topchartsafrica on Twitter.
