Wizkid continues to strengthen his position as one of Africa's premier music icons with the release of his latest album, Morayo. 
Released on November 22, 2024, the album has already achieved an extraordinary milestone, setting a new record for the highest opening week streams by any African artist on Spotify. With an impressive 48 million streams in just seven days, Morayo has surpassed expectations and made an indelible mark on global music charts.
Not only has the album dominated Spotify, but it also made waves on Apple Music's Nigeria charts, showcasing Wizkid's far-reaching influence in the music industry.
Key singles like Kese (Dance) and Piece of My Heart have further amplified the album’s success, with the former setting the record for the highest opening day stream on Spotify Nigeria, gathering 1.5 million streams.
The album itself is a heartfelt tribute to his late mother, Juliana Balogun, who passed away in August 2023, adding a deeply personal touch to its artistic narrative.
This remarkable achievement not only underscores Wizkid's status as a global force in the music scene but also highlights the growing influence of Afrobeats across the world stage.
