Four countries had matched artists: Nigeria (NG), Egypt (EG), Morocco (MA) and South Africa (ZA). This is chart presence inside each market's published daily Top 200, not total consumption, and two collection dates are a single day-over-day reading, not a trend.","unit":"streams","license":"Afrobeats Wire's compilation and analysis are licensed CC BY 4.0.
