Nigerian superstars Wizkid and Asake have set a new African music record with their latest collaboration, Jogodo, after the song became the fastest African track to reach 10 million streams on Spotify.
The milestone was achieved in less than one week of release, according to streaming data tracked by Charts Africa, which highlighted the unprecedented speed of the song’s performance on the platform.
The achievement further underlines the growing global reach of Nigerian music as Afrobeats continues to dominate conversations across major digital streaming services.
Confirming the record in a post shared on X, Charts Africa stated:
“Wizkid and Asake make history as ‘Jogodo’ breaks the record for the fastest African song to hit 10 million streams on Spotify, doing so in less than a week.”
The 10-million-stream milestone builds on earlier indicators of a historic run for the track. Within days of its release, Jogodo crossed the 5-million-stream mark, setting a new Spotify Nigeria record for the biggest opening and streaming week ever recorded in the country.
The record-breaking performance has since drawn widespread attention within the global music industry, with chart-tracking platforms and fans alike highlighting both the scale and speed of the song’s success.
With Jogodo, Wizkid and Asake have once again reinforced Nigeria’s position at the forefront of Africa’s digital music explosion, as Afrobeats continues to achieve new global benchmarks.
