Oxlade joins a prestigious group of Nigerian artists who have reached this milestone, further cementing Afrobeats’ international presence. This RIAA certification is not just a testament to Oxlade’s talent but also highlights the growing global influence of African music on mainstream platforms.

“Kulosa” spent months on the Billboard Afrobeats Chart, peaking at an impressive No. 5, and has achieved certifications in multiple countries including France, Canada, the UK, Nigeria, Spain, and Switzerland.

In response to the news, Oxlade expressed gratitude for his fans and the opportunity to be part of a global cultural movement. “This is just the beginning,” he said. “Afrobeats is here to stay, and I’m proud to be part of its journey.”

His debut album, Oxlade From Africa, also showcases collaborations with renowned artists like Wande Coal, Flavour, Bobi Wine, Fally Ipupa, and Popcaan, solidifying his presence on the international stage.

As the Afrobeats genre continues to capture the attention of international audiences, he’s achievement marks a significant turning point for the next generation of African musicians.
