Wizkid continues to bulldoze barriers on a global scale.

Full story below…

The Afrobeats titan has been on a colossal crusade for the better part of a decade, waving the flag for the genre and the African continent worldwide.

And he’s yielding rousing results.

Because the Starboy’s latest album ‘Made In Lagos’ – home to smash hit ‘Essence (ft. Tems)’ – has officially been certified Gold by the RIAA. 

The honor crowns 500,000 equivalent sales in the US. 

In the process, ‘Made In Lagos’ becomes the first ever African album to be certified Gold by the RIAA.

Huge congrats!
