His song’s success on the Billboard Afrobeats Chart and global certifications highlight its massive appeal.
Two years after its release, ‘Kulosa’ has been declared gold in the United States after reaching 500,000 units in sales.
The hit single, one of the most successful Colors Studio performances of all time enjoyed huge commercial success with over 400 million Spotify streams and over 187 million YouTube views across two music videos.
The song was a big success in the United States where it spent months on the Billboard Afrobeats Chart reaching a NO. 5 peak position.
The debut album, Oxlade From Africa, with collaborations from stars like Wande Coal, Fally Ipupa, and Popcaan, solidifies Oxlade’s standing in the Afrobeats scene, adding layers of cross-continental influence to his work.
