The second row removes DJ Zinhle, South Africa's largest panel artist (219,564 streams across 3 charting tracks on 24 October), from South Africa's total and recomputes its rate on the remaining 4 artists and 8 recordings; Egypt's side is untouched in this row. The third row instead removes \u062d\u0645\u0648 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0631\u0634\u062f\u064a, Egypt's largest panel artist (1,160,157 streams across 20 charting tracks), from Egypt's total and recomputes Egypt's rate on the remaining 17 artists and 112 recordings; South Africa's side is untouched in this row. gap_pct is (south_africa_rate minus egypt_rate) divided by egypt_rate, times 100, computed here rather than in prose. This is a named-row exclusion test on a single date, not a multi-day robustness series; South Africa's cohort is 5 artists and 11 recordings, small enough that one artist can move the whole country rate, which is exactly what this table is built to show.","unit":"streams","license":"Afrobeats Wire's compilation and analysis are licensed CC BY 4.0.
