Nigerian music is already picking up speed in 2025, as a number of artists begin what is anticipated to be another album-heavy year.
‘Baby (Is It A Crime)’ by Rema is the most listened Nigerian song on Spotify so far in 2025.

With 7.5 million streams, OdumoduBlvck’s latest track “Pity This Boy,” which features Victony, is off to a fantastic start. The rapper, who recently received eight nominations, including Next Rated for the 17th Headies, is off to an exciting start in 2025.
‘Favour’ by Gospel Star Lawrence Oyor has garnered 6.6 million streams, demonstrating its early 2025 impact with its message of optimism.
‘Why Love,’ Asake’s first song of 2025, has received 3.2 million streams to date.
