Burna Boy’s “No Sign of Weakness” Dominates Nigerian Charts

Burna Boy has once again solidified his global Afrobeat crown with *No Sign of Weakness*, debuting at No. 1 on Nigeria’s Official Top 100 Albums Chart. Released on July 11, 2025, the album sold 16,850 units—equivalent to 25.2 million streams, between July 11-17, showcasing his unmatched influence. This milestone aligns with the genre’s explosive growth, with streams surging 500% since 2015, per MIDiA Research, and African music exports rising 70% since 2019, according to UNESCO.

Following the Grammy-nominated African Giant (2019), this eighth studio album, featuring Travis Scott, Mick Jagger, and others, marks Burna Boy’s evolution from local star to international icon. Nigeria’s music industry, now valued at $1.2 billion in 2024 (IFPI), thrives on streaming platforms like Spotify, amplifying African cultural exports globally.

No Sign of Weakness isn’t just a chart-topper—it’s a testament to Burna Boy’s resilience and the rising tide of African music. Fans and critics alike are buzzing, will this be his Grammy moment? Stay tuned!
