{"id":6529,"slug":"panel-top3-and-country-concentration-03-october-2026","title":"Artist and country concentration of Spotify’s 50-artist African panel, 3 October 2026","source":"Computed from this desk's spotify-african-artists-global dataset (kworb.net Spotify daily Top 200, 75 markets, 3 October 2026)","source_url":"https:\/\/kworb.net\/spotify\/","source_type":"computed","method":"Every row of spotify-african-artists-global (50 artists, 3 October 2026 collection) was summed to get the panel total of 18,193,006 daily chart streams. Each artist's and each country's own daily_streams total was then divided by that panel total to get share_of_panel_pct. The 'Top 3 combined' row sums the daily_streams of Seyi Vibez, BNXN and Asake, the three highest rows in the source dataset. share_of_nigeria_pct expresses a row against Nigeria's own country total rather than the whole panel, and is left null for rows that are not Nigerian-origin or a Nigerian subset. 'Rest of Nigeria' is Nigeria's country total minus the Top 3 combined row. A reproduction needs only the source dataset and arithmetic: no streams were estimated or modelled.","unit":"streams","license":"Afrobeats Wire's compilation and analysis are licensed CC BY 4.0.
