Wizkid’s “Made In Lagos: Deluxe Edition” Breaks Records in Nigeria

Wizkid’s iconic album Made In Lagos: Deluxe Edition has achieved an unprecedented milestone, topping Nigeria’s album charts for 188 consecutive weeks, as announced by ChartsAfrica. This longevity is fueled by the global smash “Essence” featuring Tems—the first Nigerian track to hit the Billboard Hot 100.

This feat underscores Afrobeats’ explosive rise, with streaming surging 300% since 2018 per UNESCO reports, reshaping global music landscapes. Wizkid, who began his career at 11, pioneered this wave with his 2016 Drake collab “One Dance,” a Billboard #1.

A timeless masterpiece, it cements Wizkid’s legacy in African music history.
