Wizkid Sets Record -1st Nigerian Album To Spend A Year On Billboard Charts by Nobody: 1:35pm On Nov 12, 2021
Congratulations are in order for the Nigerian artiste WizKid Ayo Balogun as his album 'Made in Lagos' becomes the 1st Nigerian album to spend 1 year on the Billboard world albums chart.

After it's arrival on the billboard charts in October 2020, the album has spent 4 weeks at no1, which is also the longest time a Nigerian artiste has stayed at the no1 spot - the only other album being Burnaboys twice as tall which was at the top spot for 1 week.

Longest charting Nigerian albums on the billboard charts are as follows:
1. WizKid 'made in Lagos' (2020) - 52 weeks
2. Fela 'the best black president' (1999) - 45 weeks
3. Burnaboy 'African giant' (2019) - 36 weeks
4. Davido 'A good time' (2019) - 25 weeks
5. Burnaboy 'Twice as tall' (2020) - 12 weeks
6. CKay 'the first' (2020) - 6 weeks
7. WizKid 'Sounds from the other side' (2017) - 4 weeks

It's back at no1 on billboard world for this week

It will tey cos dt album is addictive, pple can't stop streaming. I still play it in my car cos it's so soothing.
AGbaby needs to drop his album and deliver me from Made in Lagos & African playlists.
Joeboys single is so addictive, hopefully he drops a good album.
