Spotify: ‘Unavailable’ remains Davido’s most streamed song on ‘Timeless’ album

Spotify, a global online streaming platform, has announced Nigerian singer, David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido’s ‘Unavailable, as the most streamed song on his recently released album, ‘Timeless’.

The Spotify Managing Director for Sub-Saharan Africa, Jocelyne Muhutu-Remy, made this known in a statement issued on Tuesday, August 22, 2023.

Davido’s 17 track ‘Timeless’ album was his fourth album which was released on March 31 and had set numerous streaming records since its debut.

She said Spotify decided to release the data in honour of the artistes – Davido, Tiwa Savage, Tyla, and Bruce Melodie – who performed extraordinarily during the inaugural Giants of Africa Festival, held in Kigali, Rwanda, on August 19, 2023.

She noted that Spotify partnered with Giants of Africa for the inaugural festival, in celebration of the non-profit’s 20 years anniversary.

Muhutu-Remy stated: “Unavailable is Davido’s most streamed song on Timeless, and the most exported track among 18-24 year olds, soundtracking many dance videos.

“The song, the dance moves, Davido’s close out performance was everything and more.

“Davido’s audience is spread out all across the continent, from Nigeria, South Africa, Ghana, Kenya, and Zambia.

“It was a pleasure to partner with Giants of Africa particularly for the closing concert where the audience got to experience some of Africa’s top-tier talent.

“Africa’s youth are the future, and we are excited to continue to support them, through partnerships such as this one.”

Muhutu-Remy added that ‘Koroba’ was Tiwa Savage’s most streamed song on Spotify, followed by ‘Ma Lo’, while ‘Stamina’ remained her top exported track among 18-35 year-olds.

“Tiwa’s performance at the Giant of Africa festival showed why she is still the undisputed queen of Afrobeats,” she said.
