Wizkid’s Morayo Breaks Streaming Records and Tops Charts in Few Hours of Release
Wizkid’s latest album, Morayo, has made an explosive impact on the music scene, topping the Apple Music charts with all its tracks occupying the top 17 spots just hours after its release.
This incredible achievement came within 10 hours of the album’s official drop on November 22, 2024.
Dedicated to his late mother, Juliana Morayo Balogun, who passed away in August 2023, Morayo has resonated deeply with fans worldwide.
The emotional tribute to his mother has not only captured the hearts of listeners but also shattered several streaming records.
One of the album’s tracks set a new milestone in Nigeria by gaining an impressive 1.57 million streams on Spotify within its opening day, marking one of the biggest single-day streaming numbers for any Nigerian artist.
Additionally, the album’s lead single, Piece of My Heart, has made a significant mark, climbing to No. 4 on the U.S. Afrobeats Songs chart and No. 7 on the World Digital Song Sales chart, further proving Wizkid’s global reach.
Nigerian singer Harry song speaks on the rising insecurity in the country and shared that increasing the security income can help improve their performance in securing the country.
The singer took to social media and urged the government “TO MR PRESIDENT. IF YOU REALLY, TRULY WANNA END INSECURITY IN NIGERIA? Start by increasing the salary and allowances of the armed forces. The salary of the army, the navy, the air force, the Nigerian Police Force is too small, too shameful. Increase their salary, this job should be worth dying for. Increase their salaries ooooooo pls and pls.”
Nigerian singer, Peter Okoye from the former duo P-Square, shares his greatest fear. During a recent interview, the singer spoke about his fears and revealed that he is not afraid of death.
Instead, he said he is scared of poverty and has this fear because he has experienced it before. “I am not afraid of death. The only thing I am afraid of in this life is poverty, of being broke.
“I have tasted it [poverty] before. I have been in our house with my parents and siblings, and a bulldozer came and demolished it.”
Popular Nigerian singer, Davido, makes headlines for his gesture of goodwill. It can be noted that during the afternoon performance, the singer paused for one minute of silence to honor his colleague Wizkid’s mother.
The singer paused during his performance and said “Personally, I have lost many loved ones, people close to me, so I understand how Wizkid is feeling right now. May his mother, our mother because she was dear to me, rest in peace.”
This gesture touched many fans, as they were in awe of the singer showing a kind heart despite the usual rivalry between their fan bases.
