Burna Boy Achieves Milestone: Equals Davido's Record on Apple Music US Chart

 

Grammy-winning Nigerian artist, Damini Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, has marked a historic achievement by matching the record set by Davido for the highest-peaking African album on the Apple Music United States chart.

Davido initially established this record with his fourth studio album, 'Timeless,' which achieved a remarkable Number 2 position earlier in the year. Now, Burna Boy's latest album, 'I Told Them,' has also surged to the Number 2 spot on the US Apple Music chart, creating a tie with Davido's 'Timeless.' This accomplishment signifies an extraordinary achievement and underscores the significant influence of African music on a global scale.

The triumph extends beyond the United States. Burna Boy's 'I Told Them' album has triumphed on the European Apple Music Album chart as well, clinching the Number 2 position. This achievement solidifies the album's status as the highest-peaking African project in the history of the European Apple Music Album chart.

Remarkably, this achievement signifies Burna Boy's remarkable progress. He surpasses his own prior feat achieved with his 2022 album, 'Love, Damini,' which secured the Number 3 position. The continuous elevation of Burna Boy's musical prowess underscores his growing influence and resonates as a testament to the global appreciation of his unique sound and artistry.

As Burna Boy continues to carve his name in the annals of music history, his achievement serves as a beacon of inspiration for other African artists and a testament to the remarkable journey of African music reaching new horizons and capturing the hearts of audiences worldwide.
