Wizkid and Asake have etched their names into African music history with their new collaboration, “Jogodo.”

The track has become the fastest African song to surpass 10 million streams on Spotify, reaching the milestone in under a week.

According to data tracked by Charts Africa, the feat underscores the song’s record-breaking streaming pace on the platform.

The achievement further underscores the rising global influence of Nigerian artistes, as Afrobeats continues to gain momentum across major digital music platforms.

The record-breaking milestone has attracted widespread industry attention, with chart-tracking platforms spotlighting the scale and speed of the song’s performance.

“Wizkid and Asake make history as ‘Jogodo’ breaks the record for the fastest African song to hit 10 million streams on Spotify, doing so in less than a week,” Charts Africa said in a post on X.

The milestone builds on earlier signs of a historic run, after Jogodo surpassed 5 million streams within days of its release to set a new Spotify Nigeria record for the biggest opening and streaming week ever recorded in the country.

The performance of Jogodo mirrors broader structural shifts in Nigeria’s music economy, where streaming success is increasingly translating into stronger commercial returns for artistes.

It was earlier reported that Nigerian artistes earned an estimated $395 million from touring and live performances in 2024 and 2025, based on industry data and stakeholder insights.

Concerts, festivals, and international tours have emerged as the main revenue drivers, with streaming platforms playing a vital role in discovery and promotion.

Younger audiences—especially Gen Z listeners—have been central to this growth, fueling consumption across Spotify, Apple Music, and Audiomack.
As Afrobeats continues to expand its global footprint, strong streaming figures have increasingly become a key marker of an artiste’s international relevance and earning potential.
