BNXN’s “CAPTAIN” Reclaims #1 on Apple Music Nigeria

BNXN’s CAPTAIN has surged back to the top of Apple Music Nigeria’s Top Albums chart, reaffirming its cultural impact. Released on July 3, 2025, the 16-track project, with its striking artwork of a solitary figure surrounded by red-lit soldiers, symbolizes resilience. The album faces stiff competition from heavyweights like Burna Boy’s No Sign of Weakness and Wizkid’s Morayo, underscoring Nigeria’s vibrant Afrobeats scene, which has seen a 20% rise in album streams this year. Olamide’s *Ikigai* further diversifies the chart, reflecting an industry thriving on collaboration. 

Chart battles like these have boosted artist visibility by 30%, according to a 2024 study, and CAPTAIN’s resurgence highlights BNXN’s rising global influence. With its bold themes and sonic depth, the album continues to captivate fans, proving its staying power in a fiercely competitive market. As Afrobeats dominates globally, BNXN’s latest triumph cements his place among the genre’s elite.
