Asake’s new sophomore studio album, “Work of Art” debuts at #66 on the US Billboard 200 Albums chart, selling just over 13,000 Units in the United States in its opening week.

It becomes his second album on the chart after his debut album, “Mr Money With the Vibe” debuted at the exact same position #66 last year. What a coincidence!

He also sets the record as the first Nigerian act to appear on the US Billboard 200 with their first two albums.
