Burna Boy surpasses a historic point on Boomplay.
-
Burna Boy becomes the first and only Nigerian artist to hit 200m streams on Boomplay.
Grammy Winner, Burna Boy continues to shatter records, and his latest achievement comes on Boomplay.
This time, as the first African artist, to reach 200 million streams on Boomplay, Africa’s most popular music streaming platform.
Boomplay streams are computed using industry-accepted standards, in which a thirty-second stream counts as one stream count.
Barely a year after becoming the first artist to reach the 100 million streams milestone on Boomplay, Burna Boy has gone on to double the achievement, becoming the first artist to be streamed 200 million times on Africa’s #1 streaming service, Boomplay.

His follow-up album, African Giant, which received critical praise and was nominated for a Grammy, now has over 43 million streams, four times as much as his prior work, reflecting his expanding fan base and popularity.
Twice As Tall, his 2020 album, has been streamed twice as many times as African Giant, with over 80 million streams on Boomplay.
