Daniel Benson
Six Nigerian No. 1s, and half his plaques abroad were filed under a name he no longer uses — he was Buju until 2022.

Common questions
How many certifications does BNXN have?
BNXN has 65 certifications across 6 countries, counted one plaque per title per country at its current tier. The most decorated is “Gwagwalada” (5× Platinum). Every figure is read from the certifying body's own register, not from press coverage.
How many No. 1s does BNXN have?
BNXN has 6 No. 1 placements on official national charts, from 89 entries in total. A No. 1 counts each time a release reaches the top of a country's chart, not the number of releases that have done it, and platform charts are counted separately on the live board.
Why don't BNXN's Nigerian certifications match TurnTable's website?
Because TurnTable's public certification page shows only part of its own register: it serves a hard cap of 500 rows and currently displays no Silver awards at all, for any artist. BNXN holds 18 Silver plaques among 55 Nigerian plaques here, so at least that many cannot appear on the live page. They are read from the same register's own archived captures rather than inferred — open the February 2026 capture and search BNXN's name to see them.
Is BNXN more certified than Olamide?
Yes. BNXN holds 65 plaques to Olamide's 54, counted under the same rule: one plaque per title per country at its current tier. The country spread differs too — 6 against 2.
Which countries has BNXN been certified in?
BNXN holds plaques in 6 countries, including Nigeria, United Kingdom, United States, Canada, New Zealand, France. Each is awarded by that country's own certifying body, and the full country-by-country breakdown is on this page.
