To be sincere, this year seems so fast because many things have happened and all the things that happened this year in the music industry from January till date is still very much fresh in our head.
It’s a tough one this year in the music Industry, the competition is high, every artistes are under pressure to drop hits. Las Las! many songs were released but just few made hits.
In no particular order below are top 10 songs we feel are the hottest in 2018:-
1. Wizkid – Soco
Apparently Soco by Wizkid and other Starboy crew is the song with longest life-span in 2018.
The song received lots of backlashes in the early days of release but fans start getting to love the song after much repeat airplays.
With 31million views on YouTube Soco is still as hot as ever.
2. Davido – Assurance
This is a well-hyped song built around an artiste like Davido with several baby mamas who found love “Assurance” in Chef Chioma.
The song has pulled about 30million views on YouTube as at the time of writing this post.
3. Falz – This Is Nigeria
This song came in very timely when corruption in Nigeria moved to another level.
Falz‘s “This Is Nigeria” which is a cover of “This is America” by Childish Gambino came at the time when snakes and monkeys began swallowing Nigeria’s money.
Like Olamide‘s Science student, the song also suffered a ban because of how the rapper creatively portray a certain religion despite many other National issues addressed on the song.
With 15million views, “This Is Nigeria” is no doubt one of 2018 biggest hit songs.
4. Olamide – Science Student
“Science Student“is the first hit song of 2018. It was a continuation of Olamide‘s successful 2017 run.
Even in the face of serious backlash and NBC ban,Science Student was well accepted by the streets and it was a big hit.
Some Nigerians claim the song was promoting drug abuse, NBC banned it but the song still gathered 10million views on YouTube.
5. 2Face Ft. Peruzzi – Amaka
The fact that this song is so damn relatable made hit a big hit. Almost everyone have experienced an “Amaka” (disappointment) in their relationship lives.
We are not suprised the song has over 8million views on YouTube.
6. Burna Boy – Ye
With over 6.5 million views on YouTube, Burna Boy‘s song Ye is no doubt a “gbedu wey dey ja pata”.
The song is a track off is Outside album which is topping charts.
This song along has taken Burna Boy away from the under-rated act he used to be as fans are beginning to acknowledge that Burna is more talented than Wizkid and Davido.
7. Kizz Daniel & Davido – One Ticket
The joint efforts of Kizz Daniel and Davido is what fans have been expecting from the beginning of the year.
When the song was finally released in November, both did beyond expectations. 6million views in the space of one month is huge.
8. Wizkid Ft. Duncan Mighty – Fake Love
As this year marks the big come back for Duncan Mighty, this particular song resurrected his dead music career to become one of the most featured artiste in 2018.
“Fake Love” is indeed one of the biggest collaboration of 2018 with 5million views on YouTube.
9. Victor AD – Wetin We Gain
This song in particular open doors for other motivational songs this 2018.
For a rather unknown artiste like Victor AD to pull over 4million views on YouTube for “Wetin We Gain“, it will be unfair not to include the song on 2018 hottest songs.
10. Kizz Daniel & DJ Spinall – Baba
After its release on 27th April, 2018 “
Baba” came through as an instant hit as
Kizz Daniel killed the
