The latest single by Diamond Platinumz, featuring legendary rhumba maestro Koffi Olomide has sent the charts into a tailspin.
A week after premiering, the audio had generated nearly 2 million views on YouTube alone, sending pirates into a scramble to capitalise, shooting their own video versions.
When the official video premiered on December 1, the hype had already been created, setting the tone for the song to possibly become a December anthem.
And the 3.5 million views it generated will yield almost $3.000 in revenue from YouTube alone.
The online channel pays $1.000 for every 1 million accumulated views. On the third day, it had peaked at 5 million views.
The exact amount made on video depends on various factors, with experts saying that it ranges between $1,000 to $2,000 per million views, translating to $0.002, or one-fifth of a cent per click.
