“Remains the Only” – Davido Brags After Topping Spotify Nigeria’s Top 16 For Two Days Straight
Afrobeats superstar Davido recently shared his pride after maintaining his remarkable achievement as the only artist to hold all 16 spots on the Spotify Nigeria Daily Top Songs Chart for two consecutive days, even with the release of Wizkid’s much-anticipated new album, Morayo.
Wizkid’s Morayo album made waves on Spotify, breaking numerous records upon its release.
However, despite the album’s success, none of its tracks were able to secure a spot in the top 16 for two straight days, a feat that Davido had previously set with his critically acclaimed album Timeless in 2023.
Following this, music analytics platform The Data Dash showed Davido’s record on X (formerly Twitter), pointing out that the singer remains the only artist to achieve this remarkable feat.
“@davido remains the only artist to occupy the Top 16 spots on the Spotify Nigeria Daily Top Songs Chart for 2 consecutive days, with all new songs from his album Timeless,” the post read.
In his signature confident style, Davido shared the post with a simple but powerful message: “Remains the only!”
This achievement is another testament to Davido’s dominance in the African music scene.
Timeless, which was released in 2023, continues to be a major player in global music charts, with Davido’s distinct blend of Afrobeats, pop, and Nigerian sounds resonating with fans both locally and internationally.
Wizkid’s Morayo album, which broke several Spotify records, is his latest contribution to the music world.
Known for his smooth vocals and chart-topping hits like Essence and Ojuelegba, Wizkid remains a key figure in the Afrobeat revolution, alongside Davido.
While both artists have their unique sound and fan base, the competition between them continues to fuel discussions about who is truly the top star in African music.
The long-awaited trial in the murder case of legendary rapper Tupac Shakur has reached a major development, with Duane “Keffe D” Davis sentenced to 40 years to life in prison on October 13, 2026.
Davis was convicted of first-degree murder in August 2026 for his role in orchestrating the 1996 killing. Tupac was shot in a drive-by attack in Las Vegas on September 7, 1996, and died six days later.
During the sentencing, the judge addressed Davis, rejecting his claims that he had changed his life and moved on from his past. “Mr. Davis, for three years, I’ve heard you say some variation of the same thing to law enforcement, [in interviews], in your book, and it’s something like, ‘Yeah, I was involved in this, but I’m different. I’ve moved on. I got out of Compton. I’m a grandfather now.’ I’m here to tell you that’s not how this works,” the judge said.
She continued “You don’t get to take a man from his family. You don’t get to take his very life, his whole future from him, and just walk away from it. Especially when that man is Tupac Shakur.
“The world never forgot about him and his death, and neither did Las Vegas. It took us 30 years, but at this time, you are going to face justice for what you did on Sept. 7, 1996.”
Nollywood actor Timini Egbuson has reflected on how his perception of YouTube movies has changed over the years. The actor recalled that there was a time when he looked down on movies released on YouTube.
However, he now appreciates the opportunities they have provided for his career and joked that he might have struggled financially if he had continued to dismiss them.
Sharing his thoughts in a post on X, Egbuson wrote “Can’t believe I was looking down on YouTube movies at some point. Hunger go don kpai me by now.”
Nigerian singer Timi Dakolo has advised young people who are still living with their parents not to rush into moving out because of peer pressure.
The singer encouraged young people to focus on their personal circumstances rather than compare their lives with those of others. He noted that there is no need to leave their parents’ homes simply because they want to feel independent.
Sharing his advice, Dakolo said “No hurry, leave your papa house because of peer pressure. Forget all that, ‘I don’t have my freedom here.’”
