The recent album from multiple award-winning Nigerian singer Wizkid dubbed 'Made In Lagos' has debuted on the Billboard World Album chart.

Wikzid released the 14-track album towards the end of October and it has been received positively across the globe.

With just about a fortnight after it was officially released, the 'Made In Lagos' project has debuted on Billboard World Albums chart at #2 this week.

In the album, which is Wizkid's fourth since the debut 'Superstar' released in 2011, the Starboy Entertainment boss features American Grammy awards winner H.E.R, Ella Mai, Jamaican artists Projexx and Damian Marley and fellow Nigerian artists Tems, Starboy Terri, Skepta and Burna Boy.

Of the featured singles, 'Ginger' in which Wizkid teamed up with fellow star Burna Boy has been trending and also raking up millions of streams on various digital platforms.

The song debuts at #11 on the Billboard Top Triller Global chart and at #10 on Billboard World Digital Songs this week.
