Even though the pandemic is still here and has hit the music industry pretty hard, one ray of hope is revenue from streaming which has remained largely unaffected and has experienced general growth globally (Warner and Sony).
Our drive to make the list more expansive saw us retrieve data from Apple’s Nigeria Top 100 list for the first time. This month’s list is composed of top 100 songs from Boomplay and Apple Music. If you missed the June’s edition, you can find it here. For someone who may be wondering how we arrived at the top 10 producers, here’s our method;
- The top 100 songs on boomplay and Apple Music are tracked regularly
- Next, we identify the producers behind these songs
- The final step involves building a model that segments them based on the number of songs they have on the chart and the duration of the songs on the chart.
Highlights
- Our regular top charting producers are still holding strong.
- Cracker Mallo rises up the list for this month courtesy of new songs released such as Dangerous Love by Tiwa Savage and Tesina Pot by Jaido P & Olamide
- Omah Lay who debuted only last month has solidified his position and has gone further to rise a few steps on the chart.
- 3 New producers joined the list Sarz, Speroach Beatz, El Jack for this month courtesy of newly released songs. El-jack gets on our list courtesy of his work on Omah Lay’s album.
