Since bursting into the mainstream in 2022 with the infectious hit Omo Ope, Asake’s career trajectory has been nothing short of phenomenal. That breakthrough track, which featured Olamide, not only introduced him as an artist to watch but also set the tone for his debut album, Mr. Money With The Vibes. The album delivered chart-topping hits like Joha, Terminator, and Organise, solidifying his status as a leading force in Afrobeats.

Fast forward to 2024, Asake’s third album, Lungu Boy, smashed records with an impressive 18 million first-week streams on Spotify Nigeria, a feat that underscores his unrivalled connection with fans. His seamless blend of street-inspired lyrics, catchy melodies, and genre-defying beats has made him a household name, not only in Nigeria but across the globe.

Asake’s global appeal extends beyond streaming numbers. This year, he joined the elite ranks of Nigerian artists who have sold out the iconic O2 Arena in London, an achievement that highlights his international acclaim. His electrifying performances, characterized by high-energy choreography and intimate audience engagement, have left fans clamouring for more at every venue he graces.

From the O2 Arena to packed stadiums across Africa and Europe, Asake continues to prove his ability to draw massive crowds while maintaining his unique sound and authenticity.

Following closely behind Asake on Spotify Nigeria’s 2024 Wrapped list is Seyi Vibez, who had an impressive year with multiple projects, including his contributions to his label’s compilation album. Burna Boy, Wizkid, and Rema round out the top five, showcasing the dominance of Afrobeats' biggest names. The rest of the top 10 features artists like BNXN, ODUMODUBLVCK, Shallipopi, Davido, and Young Jonn—all of whom have played a pivotal role in shaping the Nigerian music scene.
