EMPIRE is the No.1 record label in Nigeria, Africa for two years in a row. We’ve achieved record-breaking success with Fireboy DML’s hit single “Peru” with Ed Sheeran which was #2 on the Top 40 UK charts for 2022 and this year earned a RIAA-Gold certification. Additionally, over the past two years EMPIRE has launched the career of Asake who has already amassed over 1.75 billion streams. Two years in a row EMPIRE has organized writing camps in our San Francisco studio which resulted in Asake’s Work of Art album this year and 2022’s Where We Come From (Vol. 1) compilation album that birthed Kizz Daniel’s “Cough”.
