In typical hitmaker manner, Davido‘s most recent track, “Awuke,” has landed at the top of the charts, ushering in a new era for the celebrated artist.
After making several guest appearances, Davido’s first release of 2024 is “Awuke,” which features Jamaican musician YG Marley. It was released on October 31, 2024.
‘Awuke’ made its debut on the TurnTable Top 100, Nigeria’s sole aggregate music chart that incorporates data from streaming services, TV, and radio, during the chart week of November 1–7, 2024.
“Awuke” became YG Marley’s first chart-topping record in Nigeria with its feat.
Additionally, he joins Nicki Minaj, Mayorkun, Teni, Skiibii, BoyPee, Hyce, and Brown Joel as the eighth artist to achieve their first-ever No. 1 single on the Nigerian charts through a Davido assist.
Only three songs, including “Awuke,” have achieved number one status without being accessible on any of the main streaming services. Wizkid’s ‘Piece of My Heart’ featuring Brent Faiyaz and Gyakie and Omah Lay’s ‘Forever’ remix both accomplished this achievement recently.
Following its success on the chart-topping remixes of Kizz Daniel’s “Twe Twe” and BoyPee, Hyce, and Brown Joel’s “Ogechi,” “Awuke” becomes Davido’s third number one single of 2024.
In addition, it’s Davido’s tenth number one song on the chart, solidifying his position as one of the biggest names in Nigerian music.
