The Nigerian music scene is on fire as two of its finest talents, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, and Lojay, have made their grand debut on the prestigious Billboard Hot 100 chart.
The duo collaborated with American superstar Chris Brown on his latest hit single, ‘Sensational’, which also features Nigerian singer Lojay, who is making waves with his unique sound and style.
The song, which is a fusion of Afrobeat, R&B, and pop, has been dominating the airwaves and streaming platforms since its release in January. It finally cracked the Hot 100 chart at number 96 on this week’s edition, after topping the Bubbling chart for three consecutive weeks. “@chrisbrown’s “Sensational” featuring @davido & @Lojaymusic debuts at No. 96 on this week’s #Hot100. It earns Davido and Lojay their first career entries on the chart,” Billboard announced via their X handle on Monday.
With this remarkable achievement, Davido and Lojay have joined the elite club of Nigerian artists who have made it to the U.S Billboard Hot 100 chart, such as Wizkid, Burna Boy, Tems, Rema, Ckay, and Fireboy DML.
The song is also a testament to the global appeal and influence of Nigerian music, which has been breaking barriers and crossing boundaries in recent years.
