Akon‘s ‘Right Now (Na Na Na)’ has become the latest song to surpass one billion views on YouTube.
The Sengalese-American singer-songwriter has accrued his fourth single to achieve the milestone on the streaming platform, following 2004’s ‘Lonely’, 2006’s Eminem-featuring ‘Smack That’, and 2011’s ‘Play Hard’, the latter a collaboration with David Guetta and Ne-Yo.
‘Right Now (Na Na Na)’, taken from his third studio album ‘Freedom’, was first released in 2008.
Currently, Akon’s 2007 single ‘Don’t Matter’ stands at over 700million views, making it the next possible Akon song to hit one billion.
In recent years, other songs that have hit one billion views on YouTube include Red Hot Chili Peppers’ ‘Californication’, Dr. Dre’s ‘Still D.R.E.’, Rick Astley’s ‘Never Gonna Give You Up’ and Cardi B’s ‘Bodak Yellow’.
