The announcement revealed that the song which was released on January 18, 2023, has spent 52 weeks on the streaming chart thus becoming the first song to achieve this feat.
'Omo Ope' feat Olamide is an Amapiano record that combines chorister backup vocals, log drums, and violins for a hit song that propelled Asake to mainstream fame. The single ushered in a run of hit songs that was triumphantly capped with a record-breaking album 'Mr. Money With The Vibe'.

A year after its release 'Omo Ope' remains on TurnTable official streaming chart despite not being included in his album. This is an incredible feat and there's no telling how much longer this landmark record will extend.
