Asake's 'Omo Ope' makes history spending 52 weeks on Turn Table music chart

Asake's 'Omo Ope' has made history after spending a record 52 weeks on TurnTable official streaming chart. On Saturday, January 28th, 2023, Nigeria's leading music chart, TurnTable, reported that Afrobeats singer Asake had made a new milestone by being the first musician to spend a full year on the official streaming list.

The announcement revealed that the song which was released on January 18, 2023, has spent 52 weeks on the streaming chart thus becoming the first song to achieve this feat.

'Omo Ope' ft. Olamide is an Amapiano single that blends chorister backup vocals, log drumming, and violins to create a smash song that catapulted Asake to mainstream prominence. The track launched a string of successful singles that culminated in the album 'Mr. Money With The Vibe,' which set a new record.

The song's duration on the charts is a tribute not just to its greatness, but also to Asake's meteoric climb to stardom.

Despite not being featured in his album, 'Omo Ope' stays on TurnTable's official streaming ranking a year after its debut. This is a tremendous accomplishment, and no one knows how long this historic record will last.
