Ckays music is worldwide— Love Nwantiti (@Ckaystans) February 6, 2022
Wizkid opened the door to Billboard Hot 100 for the genre AFROBEATs and Ckay, Amarae debuted after that. Fireboy is about to debut and the dude shouting “Billboard” we are coming is still hustling for one entry since 5 years ago…lol

Ckay is global now. Don’t hate on that boy.
