    Nigerian Afrofuji and hip-hop artist Ahmed Ololade, known professionally as Asake has achieved another feat by debuting his second studio album, Work Of Art, on the Billboard 200 US chart.

    Asake’s career is on the rise as his second studio album, “Work Of Art,” debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 albums chart.

    His increasing fame and global recognition were solidified by the album’s entry at number 66 on the chart.

    “Work Of Art” sold almost 13,000 units in the US alone within its first week, demonstrating both the album’s broad popularity and the fanatical following of the performer.

    Asake made his debut with his first album, “Mr Money With The Vibe,” which was released on the YBNL label in 2022. With this achievement, he now makes his second appearance on the Billboard 200 chart.

    It’s noteworthy that both albums entered the charts at the same spot, demonstrating the artist’s steady influence on the music business.

    The Billboard 200 is a prominent and significant chart that ranks the most well-liked albums in the US based on a variety of indicators, such as album sales, streaming performance, and radio airplay.

    It is an important gauge of an artist’s economic success and influence on the American music market.

    Since the album also reached number one on the Apple Music Top Albums chart for the UK and number three in the US, Asake’s inclusion on the Billboard 200 shows that he has the potential to attract people and gain momentum outside of his own nation.

    Asake joins the ranks of prominent Afrobeats singers like Wizkid, Burna Boy, and others who have also scored top debuts on the charts since the inception of the afrobeats style by hitting the Billboard 200 albums chart only for the US.

    His reputation as a rising star is further cemented by this achievement, which also creates the possibility of future opportunities, collaborations, and continued success in the music industry.
