YouTube is one of the primary ways people outside the shores of Nigeria connect to Nigerian music videos. It is also an indication of how big a song is accepted or known internationally. As we come to the end of the year, we will examine the Top 10 most viewed Nigerian Music videos on YouTube.
Three (3) crooners, Burna Boy, Davido and Ckay, dominate the list with two songs each. The list also features gospel music by Sinach. Based on the total accumulation of views for a particular song from all channels with copyrights, Ckay's Love Nwantiti will be Number 1 with about a billion views but we base this assessment on one video (track) alone.

These Nigerian songs are currently in the top 10 list of all time as of 31st of December 2021.

Many foreign artistes can make 200m views within a week.

Stop underrating these guys. You have to understand that these views are not by Nigerians. Nigerians have their Local TV stations, Radio, downloads and file sharing to listen to their music. There are a lot of avenues for illegal downloads. This is not the same for Justin Bieber and the rest of the Canadian and European listeners. Internet over there is cheaper and more widespread and free WiFi.
Many Nigerian musicians do not have those international distributions like Drake etc nor the star power.
If Nigerians or even Africans at home are put under the same conditions with free WiFis or cheap Wifis and less illegal filesharing and the rest, the streaming numbers will be good.

Under these conditions, even 50 million is incredible!!!

Echara:
See sharp guys don rush already go upload love nwantinti for them channels. See views within three hrs.

Ckay total stream is actually about 1 billion views considering a total of the copyrights. Too many illegal streams as well. He is not policing illegal streamers at all- They are biting off from his total views

Mehn ckay shock me ohh

Davido fall and If that year even till date , those two songs still de sweet for my ears. I don't know if we will ever have Davido of 2017 again. Though im still de try but 2017, that niggar was something else.

R

David baba !

Zazooo zeh!

Every year same list

At least I know one of them. It is the Sinach - Way Maker.

Lol 200m views is the highest
If Naija artistes are as big as they claim to be, why are their video views so low

Compare these figures to the billions for Drake, Ed Sheeran, Bieber etc. Naija artistes are small boys abeg. Small hug or chat from any foreign celeb they hype it like anything. Beggars.

Exactly the same thing I was checking some days ago, I was shocked to see ckay song there

That's the quickest, I think, thanks to Tiktok

His career was on steroids back then
