Fireboy DML is making history yet again! His global hit “Peru” has officially sold over 2.2 million units in the U.S., earning 2× Platinum certification from the RIAA. This marks a major milestone, not just for Fireboy, but for Afrobeats as a whole.
A Song That Took Over the World
Originally released in July 2021, Peru quickly became a fan favorite with its catchy melody, smooth vocals, and relatable lyrics. But when Ed Sheeran jumped on the remix, the song exploded globally—racking up streams, hitting the Billboard Hot 100, and cementing Fireboy as one of Afrobeats’ biggest international stars.
Fireboy’s Growing Legacy
With Peru now joining the elite club of multi-platinum Afrobeats hits, Fireboy DML is solidifying his place alongside Burna Boy, Wizkid, and Tems as a major force in global music. His signature blend of Afrobeats, R&B, and pop continues to resonate with fans worldwide, proving his versatility and staying power.
What’s Next?
Fresh off this massive achievement, Fireboy isn’t slowing down. His latest album Adedamola is already making waves, and there are rumors of a collaborative EP with Lojay in the works.
