Omah Lay’s Boy Alone (Deluxe) Surpasses Burna Boy’s African Giant to Become 3rd Most-Streamed Nigerian Project on Spotify
Omah Lay has just hit a new career milestone that firmly cements his place among the greats of Afrobeats. His project, Boy Alone (Deluxe), has officially crossed 1.14 billion streams on Spotify, placing it among the most successful Nigerian bodies of work ever released on the platform. This achievement not only highlights Omah Lay’s growing global appeal but also showcases the staying power of his music more than a year after the deluxe edition was released.
What makes this milestone even more impressive is that Boy Alone (Deluxe) has now surpassed Burna Boy’s Grammy-nominated African Giant, which previously held the spot with a similar 1.14 billion streams. That leap makes Omah Lay’s project the third most-streamed Nigerian album of all time on Spotify. For an artist who debuted only a few years ago, joining the same tier as Burna Boy, Wizkid, and other Afrobeats legends is a remarkable feat.
