Asake’s Work of Art Hits 91 Weeks on Apple Music Nigeria Top 10
Asake is proving that staying power matters just as much as initial impact. The Nigerian sensation’s sophomore album Work of Art has now spent an astounding 91 weeks inside Apple Music Nigeria’s Albums Top 10, cementing its status as one of the streaming era’s most resilient projects.
Released to widespread acclaim, Work of Art showcases Asake’s distinctive fusion of Afrobeats rhythms, Fuji music traditions, and cutting-edge production techniques. The album hasn’t just captured lightning in a bottle—it’s managed to keep that energy alive for nearly two years as Nigerian listeners continue returning to its standout tracks week after week. This kind of sustained streaming dominance speaks volumes about the project’s replay value and cultural resonance.
The achievement places Asake in rarefied air. Only one Nigerian album has logged more weeks in the Top 10: Wizkid’s iconic Made in Lagos, which has accumulated 107 weeks and counting. That makes Asake’s Work of Art the second-longest charting Nigerian album on the platform, a remarkable feat that underscores the YBNL artist’s commercial consistency and broad appeal across demographics.
As Work of Art continues its historic chart run, Asake solidifies his position as one of Afrobeats’ most formidable forces—an artist who doesn’t just chase trends but creates music with genuine longevity. With each passing week, the album adds another chapter to its legacy as one of Nigeria’s defining musical statements of the decade.
