According to recent data, the track has now crossed the 100,000-unit sales mark in the US, combining digital downloads and streaming equivalent sales.
The Best, widely praised for its catchy melody and vibrant production, quickly became a fan favourite, with Mayorkun delivering a standout verse alongside his former DMW boss, Davido. The track’s music video, directed by Dammy Twitch, currently boasts over 30 million views on YouTube, further cementing its enduring popularity.
