Apple Music released the list of the most-streamed Nigerian songs, albums, and artistes on its platform as the country marked its 64th Independence Day.
The music streaming platform celebrates Nigeria’s independence with the theme ‘Oshe Naija’.
“As Nigeria marks 64 years of independence in 2024, music emanating from the country continues to sweep the world,” Apple Music wrote in a short statement on its app.
“Far from the monolith, however, the country’s vibrant musical scene is made up of a host of diverse cultural threads, each of which contributes to Nigeria’s rich tapestry of community, art, and expression.
“From the bustling streets of Lagos to the lush landscape of Taraba. This year, Oshe Naija celebrates the country’s abundant sonic diversity with an exploration of its most dynamic sounds and the regions that birthed them.”
Burna Boy tops the list for the most-streamed artiste in Nigeria. He is closely followed by Wizkid and Davido.
‘Made In Lagos’, the 2020 project by Wizkid, is the most-streamed Nigerian album while Rema’s ‘Calm Down’ remix featuring Selena Gomez is the most-streamed Nigerian song of all time on Apple Music.
