Burna Boy becomes Nigerian artist with most charting songs in US Billboard history
Singer, Damini Ogulu aka Burna Boy, has displaced his colleague, Tems, as the Nigerian artist with the most charting songs in US Billboard Hot 100 history.
He achieved the feat after breaking a tie with Tems, with the debut of ‘We Pray’ by Cold Play featuring him, LittleSimz, Elyanna, and TiniStoessel, on the chart this week.
‘We Pray’ debuted at No. 87 on this week’s Hot 100, increasing Burna Boy’s entries on the chart to six.
Tems has five entries on the chart while Wizkid, who was the first Nigerian artist to debut, has 4 enteries.
Rema, CKay, Fireboy, Davido and Lojay have one entry each.
Burna Boy is one song away from breaking South Africa’s Seether’s record as the African artist with the most Billboard Hot 100 chart entries of all time.
