Asake Becomes First African Artiste To Top Global Spotify Debut Chart by opamoses1(op): 6:54pm On Aug 13, 2024
ASAKE becomes first African artiste to top global Spotify debut chart.

Nigerian singer Ololade Ahmed, popularly known as Asake, has made history as the first African musician to top the global Spotify debut chart.

He acclaimed the feat after his recently released third studio album ‘Lungu Boy’ peaked at number one on the chart.

The 15-track album, with guest features from Wizkid, Travis Scott, Stormzy, Central Cee and Ludmilla, broke the record for the biggest first-day streams for an African album on Spotify.

The album garnered 9.42 million streams on the Global Spotify Chart on its first day.

One of the standout tracks from the album ‘MMS’ featuring Wizkid, broke the record for the biggest first-day streams on Spotify Nigeria with 870,000 streams.

Congrats to the Asake
