Love is in the air this week and we are back with our weekly curated list of 10 songs that you should be jamming to this week or 10 songs that should be included in your playlist this week. In no particular order, here is our list for the week.
Note: This list is curated based on song performances on streaming platforms.
10. Omo Ope – Asake ft Olamide
2020 “Mr Money” crooner Asake teams up with Olamide for “Omo Ope,” a catchy contender for street pop produced by Magicsticks. The song, which dropped last month, 19 January 2022, is charting on all four major streaming platform charts. On Apple Music, it is currently the second most-streamed song in the country.
9. Peru – Fireboy DML ft Ed Sheeran
“Peru” debuted on to Billboard hot 100 at no.79 last week and marked Fireboy’s first career entry on the chart; this marks another milestone for Afrobeat music in the country. Fireboy DML’s entry on the chart joins Wizkid featuring Tems “Essence,” which reached the top 10, and Ckay’s “Love Nwantiti” as the few Afrobeat songs that have landed on the Billboard Charts. In light of his Billboard debut, the singer rolled out another remix to the track last Friday, which featured American rappers 21 Savage and Blxst. My opinion on this remix?- it’s a hit. Fireboy can continue to remix “Peru” for all he likes because each remix only keeps getting better and better. Listen to all the remixes of Peru below and add them to your playlist. You are welcome, by the way.

“Do We Have A Problem?” marks Nicki Minaj’s twentieth Top 10 hit in the United States. The song debuted at no.2 on Billboard hot 100 following its release on music platforms on 4 February 2022. Rapping alongside Lil Baby, Barbz’s president returns with her usual sick bars and punchlines on the track paying homage to the late American-rapper Pop Smoke and Juice WRLD.

Ckay had a memorable 2021 after an unauthorized remix of his 2019 song was released. The newly remixed song, by dance/electronic artiste Ax’el, and alternative/indie act, DJ Yo, went and became a massive sound on Tik Tok last year. Now we have “Emiliana,” and we can only imagine the wonders that the song will do. Listen to it Below.

However, it was comedian Sidney Talker who signed him onto his new record label (Neville Records) in January.
