Grammy-winning singer Damini Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, has recorded 644 million monthly audience on YouTube Music, making him the highest-ranked Nigerian artist on the platform.
According to the latest YouTube Music rankings viewed on Tuesday, Burna Boy currently has 6.41 million subscribers.
He leads other top Nigerian acts including Asake with 2.06 million subscribers and 11.6 million monthly audience, Wizkid with 3.67 million subscribers and 24.2 million monthly audience, Davido with 5.04 million subscribers and 25.4 million monthly audience, and Seyi Vibez with 500,001 subscribers and 3.28 million monthly audience.

This comes weeks after the African Giant became the African artist with the highest monthly listeners on Spotify, hitting 46.84 million to break the previous record of 46.58 million held by South African star Tyla.
The Spotify growth is attributed to the global success of Dai Dai, Burna Boy’s collaboration with Colombian star Shakira.
The song was chosen as the official anthem for the 2026 FIFA World Cup and gained more traction after their performance at the opening ceremony, further boosting the singer’s worldwide reach.
