Five years after its release, 'African Giant' has now been declared platinum in France by SNEP after exceeding over 500,000 units in sales.
The certification owes a lot to the success of 'On The Low' and 'Gbona' which have earned platinum certifications in France.
'African Giant' is now the only Nigerian album to be declared platinum after sharing the SNEP gold record with Rema's debut album 'Raves & Roses'.
In 2023, Burna Boy's hit single 'Last Last' was declared diamond by SNEP in what was another testament of his international success.
