Nigerian Afrobeats star Davido has set a new record on Apple Music with his latest album Timeless.
It has had the most first-day streams ever for an African album, the music streaming service said in a tweet.
Audiomack Africa also tweeted that the “Timeless album had over 12 million streams in its first 24 hours, more than any other album on Audiomack, ever!”
The 17-track album was released on 31 March and is the musician’s fourth.
The album has already broken the record for the biggest debut week on Spotify Nigeria and the biggest first-day streams on Boomplay.
This album houses 17 tracks and features Nigerian artists like The Cavemen, Fave, Asake, Beninese-French singer-songwriter Angelique Kidjo, British-Nigerian rapper Skepta, South African music producer/DJ Musa Keys, and Jamaican dancehall/reggae singer Dexta Daps.
Tracks 3 (In The Garden) and 14 (Picasso) feature DMW’s latest additions, Morravey and Logos Olori.
