Fast-rising Nigerian singer, Jubet, has achieved a major career breakthrough as his single, Hardest Truth, made its debut on the Billboard U.S. Afrobeats Songs Chart, marking a significant milestone for the emerging artiste.
The achievement signals a new phase in the career of the Oyo State-born musician, whose emotionally driven track has gained strong traction across major streaming and digital music platforms in recent weeks.
According to data released by his management team under Loui-K Empire, the single has recorded impressive streaming numbers across multiple platforms, including over two million streams on Spotify, 3.7 million on Audiomack, 1.5 million each on Boomplay and Apple Music, and more than 1.2 million views on YouTube.
The track has also generated significant engagement on TikTok and Shazam, where it reportedly peaked at No. 2 on the global Shazam chart and secured top rankings in several African countries, including Ghana, Kenya, Uganda and Zambia.
Industry observers say the song's performance highlights the growing influence of digital platforms in propelling emerging Nigerian artistes onto the global stage. Streaming services and social media, they note, have become critical tools for music discovery and international visibility.
For Jubet, the Billboard debut represents a defining moment in his steadily rising career. The singer, who first developed an interest in music during his secondary school years, has continued to build momentum as one of the promising new voices in Nigeria's evolving Afrobeats landscape.
