Street-pop sensation Seyi Vibez has officially crossed the 1 billion mark on Spotify, solidifying his place among Nigeria’s most streamed artists. The milestone caps off a remarkable three-year run that has seen the singer rise from breakout star to one of the most dominant voices in Afrobeats.
Since bursting onto the scene in 2022 with his hit single Chance, Seyi Vibez has taken an unconventional path to success, marked by a flurry of solo releases and viral collaborations. In just three years, he has dropped seven solo projects and a compilation album, an output that has helped fuel his rapid climb on streaming platforms.
Key to this achievement are chart-topping collaborations like Gwagwalada with BNXN, which has racked up over 78 million streams, and Bad Vibes with Ayra Starr, which has surpassed 52 million streams. These hits, along with his solo catalog, have built a loyal streaming audience that continues to grow.
On Apple Music Nigeria, Seyi Vibez’s Different Pattern was the most-streamed song of 2024, and he remains one of the top artists on Audiomack, another sign of his wide appeal, especially within Nigeria’s street music audience.
2025 has already been busy for the singer. In February, he surprised fans with the 4-track Children of Africa EP, marking a new chapter in his career following a split from his former label in 2024. Shaolin, one of the EP’s standout tracks, became one of the year’s early hits.
Seyi Vibez also recently released Pressure, a bold experiment in which he sings entirely in English, showcasing a new dimension of his artistry and hinting at ambitions beyond the local market.
With 1 billion Spotify streams now under his belt, Seyi Vibez continues to build momentum. His unique blend of raw street energy, emotional vulnerability, and sonic evolution is resonating far beyond Nigeria’s borders, and it looks like he’s just getting started.
