Asake‘s ‘MMS’ marks Wizkid‘s second NO. 1 song in Nigeria.
Nigerian music superstar Wizkid has set a new record for the longest gap between NO. 1 songs on TurnTable Top 100 which is Nigeria’s foremost music chart.
Asake’s ‘MMS’ featuring Wizkid off his recently released third album ‘Lungu Boy’ reached NO. 1 on the TurnTable Top 100, marking a second chart-topper for Grammy winner Wizkid.
‘MMS’ marks 3 years, 9 months, and 12 days since Wizkid last recorded a chart-topping single with ‘Ginger’ featuring BurnaBoy.
This sees the singer set a new record that surpasses the previous one of 1 year, 10 months, and 16 days held by Omah Lay.
The record reflects Wizkid‘s longevity with the superstar maintaining his place at the summit of Nigerian mainstream music for over a decade.
The Grammy-winning superstar is expected to release his highly anticipated sixth LP ‘Morayo’ which he names after his late mother.
Ahead of the album, Wizkid released the second installment of his ‘Soundman’ EP in December 2023. The award-winning singer has kicked off 2024 with a handful of guest appearances on DJ Tunez‘s ‘Apala Disco,’ Shenseea‘s ‘Work Me Out’ and recently on Asake‘s ‘MMS’.
