    Wizkid, a Nigerian musician, recently became the most streamed Afrobeats artist on Spotify across all credits by surpassing six billion streams. As a lead artist, this extends his African record and showcases his ability to export African music globally.

    Wizkid gained international attention in 2015 with his hit single ‘Ojuelegba’ and in 2016, he was featured by Drake on the mega smash hit ‘One Dance’, becoming the first song to cross the one billion streams mark on Spotify.

    His fourth album, ‘Made In Lagos’, which produced the hit record ‘Essence’ feat Tems, has received RIAA Gold certification and the Justin Bieber-assisted remix has reached No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100.

    Wizkid’s collaborations with high-profile artists such as Drake, Major Lazer, and Beyonce have contributed to his success, making him a commercial artist with global reach.
