Asake, a member of YBNL, has accomplished something else with his second studio album, Work Of Art, which debuted at number 200 on the Billboard 200 US list.
Asake’s fame has grown even more as his second studio album, “Work Of Art,” debuted at the top of the American Billboard 200 albums list. His rising fame and international acclaim were solidified by the album’s debut at number 66 on the list.
“Work Of Art” sold almost 13,000 sales in the US alone within its first week, demonstrating both the album’s broad popularity and the fanatical following of the performer. Asake made his debut with his first album, “Mr. Money With The Vibe,” which was published on the YBNL label in 2022. With this achievement, he now makes his second appearance on the Billboard 200 chart. It’s noteworthy that both albums entered the charts at the same spot, demonstrating the artist’s steady influence on the music business.
The Billboard 200 is a prominent and significant chart that ranks the most well-liked albums in the US based on a variety of indicators, such as album sales, streaming performance, and radio airplay. It is an important gauge of an artist’s economic success and influence on the U.S. music industry.
Since the album also reached at number one on the Apple Music Top Albums list for the UK and number three for the US, Asake’s inclusion on the Billboard 200 shows that he has the potential to attract people and acquire momentum outside of his own nation.
Asake joins the ranks of prominent Afrobeats singers like Wizkid, Burna Boy, and others who have also scored top debuts on the list since the inception of the afrobeats style by hitting the Billboard 200 albums chart only for the US. His reputation as a rising star is further cemented by this achievement, which also creates the possibility for future chances, partnerships, and success in the music business.
