Afrobeats powerhouse Tiwa Savage has reached a new career high, surpassing 800 million streams on Spotify across her catalogue. This milestone places her firmly among Nigeria’s most-streamed artists on the global platform.
The achievement further underlines her status as one of the genre’s most enduring and influential voices.
With this feat, Tiwa joins an exclusive group of Nigerian acts to hit the 800-million-stream mark, while also standing out as one of the very few female artists to do so. The milestone reflects more than a decade of consistency, evolution and cross-continental appeal, built on a catalogue that blends Afropop, R&B and soul.
From early hits like Kele Kele Love to global favourites such as Ma Lo, Koroba and a string of high-profile collaborations, Tiwa’s music has continued to resonate with listeners in Africa, Europe and North America. Her steady presence on major playlists and international charts has helped her remain relevant even as new waves of Afrobeats stars emerge.
Industry observers note that the streaming milestone highlights Tiwa Savage’s rare longevity in a fast-moving industry, as well as the growing global appetite for African music led by female voices. It also reflects the wider boom in Afrobeats consumption on streaming platforms, where Nigerian artists continue to post record-breaking numbers year after year.
As she adds to her catalogue and expands her global reach, Tiwa Savage’s latest Spotify milestone reinforces her place not just as a hitmaker but as a cornerstone of Africa’s modern music story.
