{"id":4907,"slug":"home-chart-day-priced-by-origin-17-september-2026","title":"Each home market’s Spotify chart day priced by artist origin, four African-published charts, 17 September 2026","source":"Computed from this desk's spotify-african-share-by-market dataset (17 September 2026 snapshot) and the Spotify 2024 row of duetti-per-stream-rates-2024","source_url":"https:\/\/kworb.net\/spotify\/","source_type":"computed","method":"For each of the four African countries Spotify publishes a daily Top 200 chart for (Nigeria, Egypt, Morocco, South Africa), chart_streams, african_streams and african_share_pct are taken unchanged from this desk's spotify-african-share-by-market dataset for the 2026-09-17 snapshot. non_african_streams is chart_streams minus african_streams; non_african_share_pct is its complement to african_share_pct, both to two decimal places, so the two may not sum to exactly 100.00 on a row where the underlying share was itself rounded. chart_gross_usd, african_gross_usd and non_african_gross_usd multiply the corresponding stream count by $0.003, that is $3.00 per 1,000 streams, Duetti's published global Spotify payout rate for calendar 2024, held in this desk's duetti-per-stream-rates-2024 dataset; african_gross_usd plus non_african_gross_usd may differ from chart_gross_usd by a cent through independent per-row rounding. Duetti does not disclose the statements behind its figure and Spotify disputes that any fixed per-stream rate exists, on the grounds that it pools revenue and pays out pro rata to a rightsholder's share of total streams; treat every usd figure here as an ordering of magnitude at one published global blend, not a receipt. The blend is not market-specific: this desk's own prior reporting on a documented Nigerian label cascade found Apple Music, a higher-priced service than Spotify, paying 16 to 80 cents more than Spotify per 1,000 streams depending on deal structure, and general industry reporting holds African streaming markets as lower ad-supported and lower subscription-price markets than the US or Western Europe on which Duetti's blend is weighted, which means the true Spotify rate actually paid out in Lagos, Cairo, Casablanca or Johannesburg is very likely below $3.00, not above it, so every gross_usd figure in this table is a ceiling, not a floor, on what these streams actually paid. Chart streams measure presence inside a market's own daily Top 200 on one date, a sample of charted consumption, not a full accounting of everything streamed in that market that day, and one date is a snapshot, not a trend.","unit":"usd","license":"Afrobeats Wire's compilation and analysis are licensed CC BY 4.0.
