Similarly, Burna Boy's 'Higher' set a new record for most opening day streams for a solo song by an African artist. According to music chart news platform Chart data, the Nigerian superstar surpassed the previous African record he set with his 2023 Grammy-nominated single 'City Boy'.
Burna Boy's latest feat is a testament to his status as a global superstar whose music is breaking new ground for African artists.
Burna Boy has been in a record-making mood all year with the latest being his historic sold-out concert at the London stadium where he became the first African artist to sell out the venue twice and also the first to headline two stadium concerts in the UK.
