Tuface African Queen at number one is well deserved. 💯🫡👍

Unfortunately till today, most afrobeat songs lack quality lyrics. Many of those artists can't go far in their career because they can only sing about "baby", "party" and "money", nothing else.

So many shortcomings. Where will I even start.

Alhaji Tekno Duro should be in the top 15, same as Runtown Mad over You. Kiss Daniel Woju also. Terry G Free Madness / Akpako Master should be somewhere in the list.

Fair to me.
But 2baba should have at least claimed 3 spots on the top 5, followed by maybe flavour and style plus

I remember when this sound was still only known in Nigeria .I used to love it back then but when it began to get recognized by foreigners,I developed a seething hatred for it

Duro by Tecno should be there sha

Position of buga by kiss Daniel is too low

I think Mohbad should be there

Maybe Omah Lay is still growing

Maybe because Dagrin is no more on earth angry

I don’t like artists who are arrogant or constantly in the news for fighting in clubs, so I avoid playing their music. Once I hear about such behavior, I lose interest in their songs.

I understand what you're saying.Afrobeats isn't really a Nigerian thing anymore.Its now a product to be packaged and sold to outsiders.
Re: Billboard’s Afrobeats Top 50 Songs Of All Time (Full List) - 2Baba, Wizkid Lead by A305: 1:32pm On Aug 21, 2025
It's a shame having Ojuelegba at N0 2.

Naah, it isn't worth it at all. Style plus's "Olufunmi" or "run away" is more deserving of that spot even, P,square's "Temptation."
