Apple Music’s 2025 Replay data places “Morayo” at the summit of its Sub-Saharan Africa album rankings, recognizing it as the region’s most-streamed body of work this year. The project, released between late 2024 and early 2025, blends Afrobeats, R&B, and soulful mid-tempo grooves that have resonated deeply with listeners across Nigeria and neighboring markets.
The album’s performance helped propel Wizkid to the status of Apple Music’s most-streamed artist in Sub-Saharan Africa in 2025, matching his position at the top of the platform’s Nigerian charts. In Nigeria, “Morayo” also leads the list of top albums of the year, placing ahead of major releases like Davido’s “5ive,” Asake’s “Lungu Boy,” BNXN’s “Captain,” and Burna Boy’s “No Sign of Weakness.”
