Nigerian music sensation Davido is celebrating a career-defining moment as his fifth studio album, 5ive, claims the top spot on the UK Spotify album chart.
Afrobeats megastar David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, has hit another major career milestone with the release of his fifth studio album, 5ive.
The highly anticipated project, which dropped on April 18, 2025, has made an impressive international debut, claiming the No. 1 spot on the UK Spotify album chart.
This achievement marks a significant moment in Davido’s global journey, further solidifying his status as one of Africa’s biggest music exports. Domestically, 5ive also posted the second-highest opening week streams for an album on Spotify Nigeria, confirming its widespread appeal both at home and abroad.
One of the standout tracks from the album, Offa Me, featuring American R&B star and Grammy winner Victoria Monét, has quickly become a fan favorite. The sultry, genre-blending track has resonated with listeners for its seamless fusion of Monét’s smooth vocals and Davido’s signature Afrobeats sound. Its visually striking music video, released shortly after the album’s drop, has only amplified the track’s growing popularity.
With 5ive making such a strong international debut on Spotify UK chart, all eyes remain on Davido as he continues to break barriers and redefine the global Afrobeats narrative.
