DJ Spinall and Fireboy DML’s “Sere” Surpasses 100 Million Streams on Spotify

Nigerian DJ and producer SPINALL (DJ Spinall) and singer Fireboy DML have hit a major streaming milestone. Their 2020 collaboration “Sere” has officially exceeded 100 million streams on Spotify, marking a significant achievement for both artists and Nigerian music.

Released on December 4, 2020, as part of Spinall' s fifth studio album Grace, the track has gradually become an evergreen favorite in Afrobeats. As of late July 2026, it sits just over the 100 million mark (reports cited around 100, 034, 100,034,698 streams). The song is the first by a Nigerian DJ to reach this milestone and the first Nigerian DJ- artist collaboration to do so. For Fireboy DML, it is his fifth track to surpass 100 million Spotify streams.

“Sere” arrived during a strong period for Afrobeats, featuring Fireboy' s smooth, melodic delivery over Spinall' s signature production (with contributions from producer Kel- P). The track' s infectious groove, playful lyrics, and positive energy helped it resonate with listeners beyond its initial release window. A remix featuring American R & B artist 6 LACK followed in 2021, further expanding its reach, while the official music video has accumulated tens of millions of views on YouTube.

Unlike many chart- topping singles that explode quickly and fade, “Sere” has demonstrated remarkable longevity. Its organic growth over more than five years highlights the lasting power of well- crafted Afrobeats records and the global appetite for Nigerian music on streaming platforms.

This achievement highlights Spinall' s pioneering role as a DJ and producer who consistently produces hits while uplifting collaborators. It also enhances Fireboy DML' s impressive streaming catalog, which already includes massive tracks like “Peru” and “Bandana.” Industry observers note that “Sere” ranks among the growing list of Nigerian songs to reach the 100- million- stream mark on Spotify, reflecting the broader rise of Afrobeats worldwide.

With “Sere” now past the 100 million streams, both Spinall and Fireboy DML continue to grow their catalogs. Spinall remains one of Africa' s most prominent DJs and producers, known for high- profile collaborations and energetic performances, while Fireboy maintains his position as one of Afrobeats’ leading vocalists with consistent releases and strong streaming numbers.

“Sere” stands as a testament to quality songwriting and patient audience growth. In an era of fast- paced releases, its journey to 100 million streams on Spotify proves that some records only get stronger over time.
