Buzzing Nigerian singer, CKay, has hit another milestone on the Billboard chart with his latest tune, 'Emiliana'.

'Emiliana' is a smash Afro-fusion Tune that came as a follow-up after the singer’s “Love Nwantiti” became a global smash hit. And a few weeks after its release, it debuted on the Billboard top 200 charts at number 190.

Away from the debut, Emiliana is also said to be the first Afrobeats song to make the Billboard charts without an official video.

Last year in November, the singer rose to No. 1 on Billboard's Emerging Artists chart to become the top emerging act in the U.S. 

CKay's 'Love Nwantiti' became the first Afrobeats/Nigerian song to debut on the US Billboard Hot 100 without first appearing on the Primary Bubbling Under 100 chart. This track is still on Shazam at #47.

There's still plenty of room for the new single to reach greater heights in 2022.
