Wizkid’s “Essence” is on track to become the first Nigerian song to go platinum in the United States.
Grammy-winning Nigerian musician Wizkid’s trailblazing Billboard Hot 100 smash, ‘Essence,’ was rumored to have reached one million in sales equivalent on September 21, 2021.

Chart Data, a reputable source, broke the story. This comes just two weeks after the song was certified Gold in the United States, earning Wizkid’s second Gold record after Drake’s ‘Come Closer.’

With this achievement, ‘Essence’ becomes the first Nigerian song to achieve platinum status in the United States.

‘Essence’ has climbed back to No. 17 in the charts after falling last week. Turntable Charts, Nigeria’s main music chart publisher, recently stated that ‘Essence’ is the third most popular Nigerian song of 2021 so far.
