This is one of those unpopular posts that kinda earns one the "Hater tag" but I'm not trying to shit on Wizkid but rather trying to clarify the misinformation about Wizkid being the first Nigerian artist to be featured on a Billboard Chart.

The Billboard is a organization popularly known for its music charts such as the Hot 100 singles chart and the Billboard 200 albums charts. Besides those two well known charts, the Billboard also has a large number of charts such as the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop songs, The Billboard Twitter Last 24 hours chart (which Wizkid was featured on courtesy his collaboration with Drake), the Official UK Singles Chart among others, which it monitors and publishes.

For the sake of correctness, it would be right to say that D'Banj, who had a top 10 single (Oliver Twist at number 9) on the Billboard UK Official Singles Chart in 2012, is the first Nigerian to chart on a Billboard chart considering date (2012 which is 4 years old). Don't take my word for it here's a screenshot and a link to check it out yourself.

I'm pretty sure that if one really checks the Billboard there might be more Nigerian artists who have singles that have been charted on the Billboard music charts.

Since this is for clearification purposes, let me also point you to the fact that the report says BILLBOARD TWiTTER'. I suppose they are different platforms from what you are trying to prove.

Who billboard don epp!?

Wizkid and lie lie. Linda could be right in all this.

still doesn't stop wizkid from shinning !!!

Mentality....... ZERO

I thought everyone knew this? I read the initial WizKid post, it clearly states that WizKid was the first Nigerian on Billboard's Last 24 hours Twitter chart. Or do folks only read headlines and ignore the actual article?

Oh and I'm sure that Fela has been featured on a Billboard chart...so D'banj is probably not the first.

I have a confession, dont take it personal.....*singing*....bot fuel today for 65 naira

Mode 9 was the first Nigerian I know that made it to the Billboard chart. Only that there are many billboard chart these days so I wouldn't know much about that.

Even Reminisce Baba Hafusa was featured on the charts in May last year. Not sure how it got into billboard bt yeah it did!

correct

Before D'Banj, there was Sunny Ade and Fela Kuti also on Billboard.
I think they are also Nigerians, if I am not mistaken

Clear sign of the indomie generation. I suppose u've never heard of Sade Adu.

What about seal? Sade Adu? Lighthouse family? I think Majek's cover of redemption song.... Lamont Dozier's song going back to my roots featured Orlando julius. If the first three names are not seen as Nigerian.

The blogs i saw failed to put the Billboard Twitter Last 24 hours in their blog post title and neither did the Nairaland thread
