Asake’s ‘Lungu Boy’ surpasses 300 million streams on Spotify

Afrobeats star Asake has reached a massive streaming milestone as his latest project, Lungu Boy, soars past 300 million streams on Spotify.
This impressive figure not only reflects the album’s global appeal but also further solidifies Asake’s reputation as one of the most consistent and innovative hitmakers of his era.
With Lungu Boy becoming his third studio album to cross the 300 million-stream mark—alongside Mr. Money With The Vibe and Work of Art—Asake continues to defy the odds, showing unwavering momentum since bursting onto the scene just a few years ago.
Driven by standout tracks like MMS featuring Wizkid, Fuji Vibe, and Worldwide, the album’s success lies in its fearless fusion of genres—merging the raw energy of Fuji music with the bounce of Amapiano and the rhythm of Afrobeats. This genre-bending approach has become Asake’s signature, setting him apart in a competitive musical landscape.
As the numbers climb, so does Asake’s influence. Lungu Boy isn’t just another streaming success—it’s a testament to his ever-growing global reach and his ability to keep the Afrobeats genre fresh, exciting, and endlessly dynamic.
