Asake’s WHY LOVE Returns to No. 3 on Apple Music Nigeria, Eyes Another Year-End Streaming Crown

Asake‘s enduring hit WHY LOVE has climbed back to No. 3 on the Apple Music Nigeria Top Songs Chart, more than a year after its original release.

The resurgence is another testament to the song’s remarkable staying power, as it continues to attract strong streaming numbers long after its debut. While many releases fade with time, WHY LOVE has maintained a consistent presence among listeners, proving its lasting appeal.

The latest chart climb also strengthens the song’s chances of finishing 2026 as Apple Music Nigeria’s most-streamed song, a feat that would see it claim the year-end title for a second consecutive year. Such an achievement would further cement the record as one of the defining Nigerian songs of its era.

Since its release, WHY LOVE has become one of Asake‘s signature records, earning widespread acclaim for its infectious melodies, replay value, and emotional resonance. Its continued success reflects both the artist’s loyal fanbase and the song’s ability to remain relevant in an ever-evolving music landscape.

With the year-end race still underway, WHY LOVE remains firmly in contention, continuing to prove that true hits don’t just peak—they endure.
