In addition, Skiibii’s “Baddest Boy (Remix)” with Davido becomes the most popular ever in chart history, breaking the record recently set by Fireboy DML & Ed Sheeran’s “Peru” on chart dated January 3, 2022 (“Peru’s” previous record was a result of massive airplay while “Baddest Boy (Remix)” is due to huge streaming numbers due to multiple versions of the song being available).
On the streaming chart, “Baddest Boy (Remix)” is Davido’s ninth No. 1 entry on the chart – and Skiibii’s first. Additionally, it breaks the record for biggest streaming sum in a week, with its 8.21 million equivalent streams dwarfing the previous record of Joeboy’s “Sip (Alcohol)” of 6.56 million streams.
Fireboy DML & Ed Sheeran’s “Peru” slides to No. 2 after topping the chart for four consecutive weeks – it continues to lead the radio chart with 52.6 million radio impressions (7th week at No. 1).
