Wizkid has set the benchmark for consistency on Spotify’s Daily Top Artists – Nigeria, holding the longest active streak on record (1,000+ consecutive days)—a run fan chart-trackers say no one else has matched. Recent tallies show the streak passing the 1,000-day mark and still rolling, underscoring a dominance built on relentless streaming power and cultural pull.

The numbers mirror the moment: Wizkid’s collaborations continue to power Nigeria’s daily charts—most recently with “Forever Be Mine”—keeping him front-and-center in the country’s listening habits. 

Beyond the dashboards, the legacy is clear. Wizkid is widely credited with helping push Afrobeats into the global mainstream—bridging Lagos, London, and the U.S., and opening doors for an entire generation of African artists to tour arenas and top playlists worldwide.
