Burna Boy‘s “Love, Damini” is highest charting Nigerian album
Over a week ago, Burna Boy released his sixth studio album, “Love, Damini.” This project contained 19 tracks, and star-studded features from J Balvin, Khalid, Ed Sheeran, Popcaan, Kehlani, and more.
Burna has been one of the biggest international artists out lately, especially out of Nigeria. Love, Damini was a highly anticipated project, which many believed that could be Burna’s biggest project to date.
Burna’s first week sales with Love, Damini are now here, and it was definitely a success. It has debuted at number 14, on the Billboard 200 chart. The album sold 25,000 units, in its first week, according to Chart Data. It’s Burna’s highest charting album ever.
Burna also has the highest charting Nigerian album of all-time, on the Billboard 200. He also set the record for most charting albums on the Billboard 200 among Nigerian artists, with three.
Since 2019, every Burna Boy album release has seen a jump, in charting debuts. 2019 saw “African Giant” debut at number 104, and “Twice As Tall” debuted at 54. Love, Damini displayed how much support Burna has gained over the past two years in the United States, as well as worldwide.
Burna’s “Love, Damini” Tour also kicks off on July 17, in Bridgetown, Barbados. It’ll conclude on July 31, in Atlanta.
