Nigerian music continues its global dominance, with Spotify unveiling its 2024 Wrapped list that crowns Asake as the most-streamed Nigerian artist of the year. Known for his infectious beats and unique style, Asake leads a lineup of exceptional talents that showcases the enduring influence of Afrobeats on the global music scene.

Ayra Starr, the sensational “Sabi Girl,” clinches the title of the most-streamed female Nigerian artist, marking a stellar year that has seen her music resonate with fans worldwide. Both artists’ achievements underscore the growing international appetite for Nigerian music.

Spotify’s Wrapped list reflects the diverse appeal of Nigerian artists, with Burna Boy, Wizkid, and Rema also making the ranks. Asake’s meteoric rise this year is particularly noteworthy, driven by his chart-topping hits and energetic performances.

The recognition serves as a testament to the innovation and creativity of Nigerian artists, who continue to set trends and break barriers in the global music industry. Fans and industry insiders alike celebrate this milestone as a sign of greater things to come for Nigerian music.
