CityNews Nigeria reported that despite an initial partial leak, Davido’s ‘Timeless’ album broke several records, including the highest charting album by an African artist on the US Apple Music (peaked at Number 2) and the biggest album first-day streams in the history of Audiomack.
The 17-track album also became the first and only afrobeats album to debut all tracks in the top 100 of the United Kingdom Apple Music top songs chart.
Following the release of the album, global streaming giant, Spotify, said Davido’s music is most streamed in the United Kingdom, Canada, France and Nigeria.
