Wizkid’s Kese (Dance) Disappears from Apple Music Top 100 Chart
Wizkid’s latest hit single, Kese (Dance), which broke records upon its release, has mysteriously vanished from Apple Music’s Top 100 chart.
Released on November 15, 2024, Dance quickly rose to the top, clinching the number one spot on Apple Music Nigeria’s Top 100 chart just hours after its debut.
The song also achieved a monumental feat on Spotify, garnering 2.753 million streams globally within its first day, setting a new record for an African song.
However, fans were left puzzled when the chart-topping single suddenly disappeared from Apple Music’s charts.
Many have attributed this to the platform’s stringent policies regarding streaming manipulations, suggesting that potential irregularities in streaming activities might have led to its removal.
Apple Music is known for enforcing strict measures to ensure authenticity in streaming numbers, and this incident has raised questions about how streaming data is monitored and verified.
The unexpected takedown has fueled a broader conversation about the pressures artists face to achieve record-breaking numbers in the competitive music industry.
Fans and critics alike are rumouring that the song’s streams might undergo a thorough review and possible deduction before being reinstated on the charts.
Dance marked a significant milestone in Wizkid’s illustrious career, showcasing his ability to connect with audiences worldwide and maintain his status as a leading figure in Afrobeats.
The song’s disappearance has sparked debates on social media, with fans defending Wizkid and calling for transparency in how streaming platforms handle such cases.
Others view it as an opportunity for the industry to address concerns about the authenticity of streaming figures and the role of artificial boosts.
Two Nigerian music stars, Rema and Asake, have earned a place in former U.S. President Barack Obama’s annual list of favorite songs for 2024.
On Saturday, Obama shared his handpicked selection of tracks from the year, and both artists’ songs were included.
Rema’s hit single Yayo and Asake’s collaboration with Travis Scott on Active made the prestigious list..
The list also saw the inclusion of another African artist, South Africa’s Tyla, who was featured for her song Jump, a track featuring Gunna and Skillibeng.
In addition to the African stars, Nigerian-American singers Shaboozey and Jordan Adetunji also appeared on Obama’s playlist.
Shaboozey’s A Bar Song and Adetunji’s Kehlani were celebrated for their unique sound, adding diversity to the mix.
As expected, the list also featured big names from the global music scene, with legendary artists like Kendrick Lamar, Beyoncé, and Karol G all making an appearance.
These mainstream stars continue to dominate the music industry, but Obama’s inclusion of emerging artists such as Rema and Asake shows his appreciation for a variety of musical genres.
On sharing his list with his followers via X (formerly Twitter), Obama encouraged fans to explore the tracks, saying, “Here are my favorite songs from this year!
Check them out if you’re looking to shake up your playlist, and let me know if there’s a song or artist I should make sure to listen to.”
