    Nigerian music sensation Asake has achieved another milestone with his third studio album, ‘Lungu Boy,’ which has become the longest-charting number-one album on Nigeria’s premier music chart, TurnTable.

    Since its release on August 8, 2024, ‘Lungu Boy‘ has dominated the chart for 15 consecutive weeks, marking a historic run.

    This achievement adds to Asake’s growing list of records, as he now holds the distinction for the longest-charting album and song on TurnTable Charts.

    In 2023, his hit single ‘Lonely At The Top‘ set the record for the longest number-one reign on the TurnTable Top 100, surpassing Omah Lay’s ‘Godly,’ which previously held the record with 11 weeks at the summit.

    Released as his third album in three years, ‘Lungu Boy‘ continues the streak of success Asake began with his previous albums, ‘Mr. Money With The Vibes’ and ‘Work of Art.’

    Known for his ability to consistently produce chart-topping hits, Asake has solidified his place in the Nigerian music industry with this latest achievement.

    The album features high-profile collaborations with international and Nigerian stars, including Wizkid, Stormzy, Central Cee, and Anais Cardot, further showcasing Asake’s versatility and global appeal.

    The standout track ‘MMS‘ featuring Wizkid has also earned a nomination for Best African Song Performance at the 67th Grammy Awards, making it Asake’s second Grammy nod in two years.

    Since his breakthrough into the mainstream in 2022, Asake’s rise has been nothing short of phenomenal. His hit-packed albums and unique sound have propelled him to superstardom, with industry experts and fans alike declaring his run as unprecedented in Nigerian music history.

    With ‘Lungu Boy‘ continuing to break records and gain digital success, Asake is showing no signs of slowing down. As his career reaches new heights, he remains a defining force in shaping the future of Afrobeats.
