Asake Breaks Billboard Record, Surpasses Burna Boy with 50 Afrobeats Chart Entries
Nigerian singer Ahmed Ololade, better known by his stage name Asake, has now set a new record on the Billboard U.S. Afrobeats Songs chart, surpassing Burna Boy in the process.
With the release of his latest album, *Lungu Boy*, Asake managed to debut nine songs on this week’s chart, bringing his total number of chart entries to an impressive 50.
Among his current hits, the track *Active*, a collaboration with popular American rapper Travis Scott, has claimed the number-one spot on the chart.
This achievement further highlights Asake’s growing influence in the global music scene, particularly in the Afrobeats genre, where Nigerian artists have been making significant waves.
The Billboard U.S. Afrobeats Songs chart, which was introduced in April 2022, tracks the most popular Afrobeats songs in the United States.
Since its inception, the chart has been consistently dominated by Nigerian artists, underscoring the increasing global reach and appeal of Afrobeat music.
Asake’s latest feat adds another milestone to the genre’s journey, as he continues to break records and push the boundaries of African music on the international stage.
It’s the weekend once again, and it’s time to sit back and unwind. Why not do that with some music and feel nostalgic while you’re at it? Today, we’ll be reminiscing about a former girl group that took the stage in 2012 but, sadly, lasted for less than six years. That girl group is Fifth Harmony.
It can be recalled that the band started out in 2013 and broke up in 2018. While they didn’t spend so long together, they brought beautiful songs that were major hits during those years. Let’s take a look at their top 10 hits:
- Work From Home ft. Ty Dolla $ign
- Worth It ft. Kid Ink
- Boss
- Sledgehammer
- That’s my Girl
- All in My Head (Flex) ft. Fetty Wap
- Miss Movin On
- Down ft. Gucci Mane
- He Like That
- I’m in Love with a Monster
