Nigerian music sensation Asake has been named the country’s best-selling artist for 2024, marking a remarkable achievement as he continues to dominate the music scene. According to the annual end-of-year chart by TurnTable, Asake clinched the top spot for the third consecutive year, a feat never before accomplished in Nigerian music history.
The award-winning singer’s albums, including “Mr Money With The Vibe” and “Work Of Art,” enjoyed enduring chart success throughout the year, with his third album, “Lungu Boy,” emerging as the standout project. Released in August 2024, “Lungu Boy” not only topped the charts for 15 consecutive weeks but also claimed the title of the best-selling album of the year.
Asake’s reign wasn’t limited to album sales. He continued to dominate across multiple platforms, securing his position as the number one radio artist in Nigeria for the second consecutive year.
On digital streaming services, Asake was a force to be reckoned with. He topped Apple Music’s 2024 charts, with “Lungu Boy” leading the album rankings. His influence extended to Audiomack, where he was the platform’s most-streamed artist, and he also emerged as the number one artist on YouTube in Nigeria.
This unprecedented success solidifies Asake’s position as one of the biggest and most influential artists in Nigeria’s ever-evolving music industry.
