6.) Cheque - Zoom

It's not everyday that a Trap/Emo track becomes a hit in Nigeria, but this song is still waxing strong. After it dropped off Cheque's debut EP, 'Razor,' it enjoyed a lukewarm reception but after its video dropped, it soared up the charts.

7.) Bella Shmurda featuring Zlatan and Lincoln - Cash App

The song might be premised upon the counter-culture of 'yahoo yahoo,' but the music is alluring enough to form a dalliance with the Nigerian heart. The song also further ties into how pop culture continues to promote Square's product of the same name. Jack Dorsey would be proud.

8.) Tems - Damages

9.) Wizkid - No Stress

Well, Wizkid admires a woman with no stress and his album, Made In Lagos was said to reflect that reality. His song might have had a tumble from No. 4 to No. 9 on this week's chart, but the times look great for Baba Bolu.
