Asake’s M$NEY Reclaims Top Spot on Spotify Nigeria, Sets New Longevity Record
When it comes to streaming dominance in 2026, one name keeps rising to the top: Asake. The Nigerian superstar’s latest project M$NEY has officially reclaimed the No. 1 position on Spotify Nigeria’s Weekly Albums Chart, extending what’s already become a historic run for the YBNL signee. With this latest surge back to the summit, the album now boasts an impressive 14 weeks at the chart’s peak—making it the longest-reigning No. 1 album in Nigeria on Spotify this year.
M$NEY’s sustained success isn’t just about numbers; it’s a testament to Asake’s evolving artistry and his ability to craft music that resonates deeply with fans. The project showcases his signature fusion of traditional Afrobeats rhythms with gritty street-pop sensibilities and irresistibly catchy melodies that have become his trademark. Every track feels purposeful, every beat intentional, creating an album experience that keeps listeners coming back week after week. The streaming figures reflect what fans already know—Asake has tapped into something special with this release.
This milestone further solidifies Asake’s status as one of Afrobeats’ most formidable streaming powerhouses. While many albums struggle to maintain momentum past their first few weeks, M$NEY continues to prove its staying power, consistently connecting with audiences across Nigeria and beyond. The album’s commercial triumph and chart longevity add another impressive chapter to a career that’s been nothing short of meteoric.
As M$NEY continues its victory lap at the top of Nigeria’s streaming charts, one thing is crystal clear: Asake isn’t just riding a wave—he’s creating one. Fourteen weeks at No. 1 is more than a statistic; it’s a statement about the enduring appeal of authentic, innovative Afrobeats music.
