The TurnTable Top 50 (also known as TurnTable Nigeria Top 50 Albums chart) is the official album streaming chart in Nigeria. It is compiled every Tuesday by a Nigeria-based music digital streaming tracking company and published every Tuesday by TurnTable magazine. The list shows the 50 best-streaming music albums of the moment in Nigeria. The first issue of the Nigeria Top 50, was launched on Tuesday, 8 November 2022,[1] and the first number-one album was Mr. Money with the Vibe by Asake.[2]

History

On 31 March 2022, TurnTable announce the expansion of the TurnTable Top 50 single chart, into Top 100.[3] According to the co-founder, and editor-in-chief of the magazine, Ayomide Oriowo, "The chart expansion will be supported by TurnTable Top 200, as the official album-based chart".[3] On 8 November 2022, the album's official chart, began operation as the current TurnTable Top 50 chart.[1]

Policy

The chart retains a similar system to the existing Top Streaming Songs chart, which is a point-per-play system that determines the values of streams on different streaming platforms.[1] Paid streams will be weighted as one point per play value, freemium streams will be weighted as 0.75 points per play, ad-supported video streams from YouTube will be weighted as 0.66 points per play while ad-supported streams will be weighted as 0.5 points per play.[1] The album chart as well as other genre-based consumption-ranked album charts will employ a single tier (equating 1,500 streams as one album unit) for on-demand audio streams (paid or ad-supported) from subscription services.[1] Video streams will also contribute to the Top 50 Albums Chart.[1]
