Nigerian superstar Wizkid has achieved another milestone with his latest single, “Piece of My Heart,” which has become the most-streamed song in a single week on YouTube Nigeria.
The R&B single garnered an impressive 1.20 million streams, surpassing Fireboy’s “Peru” remix featuring Ed Sheeran, which previously held the record with 1.18 million streams.
This feat follows Wizkid’s record-breaking opening day streams on Spotify Nigeria, eclipsing the mark he shared with Asake’s “MMS.” Notably, “Piece of My Heart” is the first song to reach 1 million opening day streams on Spotify from any African country.
The song’s success reflects Wizkid’s status as one of Nigeria’s most commercially successful artists and highlights the growing popularity of streaming in Nigeria, particularly on YouTube.
“Piece of My Heart” marks the beginning of Wizkid’s “Morayo” era, leading up to the release of his highly anticipated sixth album on November 22, 2024.
