Wizkid’s Starboy imprint has closed out the year with yet another major win as DJ Tunez officially ends 2025 as Nigeria’s most streamed DJ, reaffirming the label’s long-standing influence on the country’s soundscape. For years, Tunez has been one of the quiet powerhouses behind Starboy’s global identity, blending Afrobeats, amapiano, soulful house, and signature Starboy rhythms into a catalogue that consistently resonates with listeners across continents. Finishing the year as the nation’s top-streamed DJ highlights not only his individual success but also the continued strength of Wizkid’s ecosystem, which has produced some of the most culturally defining sounds of the past decade.
Tunez’s dominance in 2025 didn’t happen by accident. His year was powered by a string of high-performing singles, electrifying festival sets, and collaborative records that found massive traction on digital platforms. His ability to merge Starboy’s mellow, melodic DNA with evolving global trends kept him at the centre of playlists, nightlife rotations, and social media virality. The consistency of his work and his instinct for timeless-sounding music helped him stand out in a competitive landscape where DJs are increasingly becoming frontline artists in their own right.
For Wizkid, this milestone reflects the enduring influence of a brand he carefully built one that prioritises quality, longevity, and global reach over hype. Starboy’s identity has always been rooted in subtle excellence, and Tunez embodies that ethos perfectly. Even without loud promotion, his music moves, grows, and finds its audience naturally. His streaming success reinforces the idea that Starboy remains one of the most reliable and respected musical identities in contemporary Afrobeats.
The Starboy narrative continues to evolve, but milestones like this show the foundation remains firm. As DJ Tunez closes 2025 as Nigeria’s most streamed DJ, he not only celebrates a personal victory but also extends the legacy of the Starboy machine where talent thrives, the music speaks for itself, and dominance comes effortlessly.
