Davido & Omah Lay’s With You Holds Strong as the Only Nigerian Song in the UK Apple Music Top 100
Afrobeats continues to show its staying power on the global stage, and Davido and Omah Lay’s hit collaboration With You is one of the clearest signs of that momentum. As of now, the track remains the only Nigerian song holding a spot in the UK Apple Music Top 100, a remarkable feat considering the volume of international releases that enter and exit the chart daily.
Released to critical acclaim, With You is a melodic, emotive ballad that seamlessly blends Davido’s electrifying presence with Omah Lay’s signature vulnerability. The synergy between both artists is undeniable, creating a song that appeals to both core Afrobeats lovers and international pop audiences alike. The production, rooted in smooth Afro-fusion, allows the lyrics to shine, with themes of longing, love, and emotional connection.
For Davido, a veteran hitmaker and global ambassador of African music, this is yet another milestone in his string of international chart successes. For Omah Lay, known for crafting emotionally honest music, this cements his place as one of Nigeria’s most important and exportable young voices.
The song’s continued climb and sustained position on the UK chart reflects not just its sonic quality, but the rising dominance of Nigerian music worldwide. Afrobeats is no longer a trend – it’s a global movement, and songs like With You are leading the charge.
As the genre evolves and gains more traction internationally, the performance of “With You” on such a competitive chart signals both global recognition and continued cultural influence. It’s a proud moment for Nigerian music – and a glimpse into an even bigger future.
