On the socially conscious single titled “World”, Shmurda took aim at almost every group of people with past colonial masters and religious leaders getting a tongue-lashing from the Gen Z hit-maker.

UrbanAfro singer Tobechukwu Victor Okoh, known as Peruzzi, impressed the most this week on Apple Music top ten Nigerian songs chart finishing with two slots. His single with Davido titled “Somebody Baby” went six positions up while “God Forbid”, off his new album “Rum and Boogie”, made its chart debut as well.

Closing out the chart instead is Steve Crown’s “Hosanna” — a new gospel song from the Nigerian artist who had become famous after his hit song “You are Great” dominated airwaves in 2015.

Here is our complete Bomplay top ten Nigerian songs chart for this week:

It is refreshing to see Naira Marley’s “Coming” finally knock off Omah Lay’s “Godly” from the summit of Boomplay’s chart. The track had been sitting at the top since the weeks following its 2020 release.

Boomplay also shows that gospel songs are returning to popularity on streaming platforms. Besides Steve Crown’s “Hosanna” we also see Nathaniel Bassey’s “Hallelujah Challenge Praise Medley” just two spots outside from the Boomplay Nigerian songs weekly top ten chart.
