Grosses and ticket counts from Billboard Boxscore. The board ranks every reported show by an African artist, not only his — a missing night means Boxscore never reported it. A dash means no headcount was published. Stands Boxscore reported only as one combined total sit beneath the board with the body's figures; no per-night split is invented for them.

Boxscore reported each of these runs as one combined figure and never a per-night gross, so they are shown as the body prints them rather than ranked above — a two-night total would sit fifth on a board of single nights it never had.
Box-office figures reported by Billboard Boxscore & Pollstar (as aggregated by TouringData), cross-checked against press reporting, as of September 2026. Each entry is a single night's gross. Stands that Boxscore reported only as one combined total are listed beneath the board with the body's own figures — they cannot be ranked against single nights, and no per-night split is invented for them.
