Asake’s M$NEY Extends No. 1 Run to Eight Weeks on Apple Music Nigeria

Asake’s M$NEY Maintains Eight-Week Reign at No. 1 on Apple Music Nigeria

Asake is proving once again why he’s one of the most formidable forces in contemporary Afrobeats. The Nigerian hitmaker’s latest album M$NEY has now spent an impressive eight consecutive weeks atop the Apple Music Nigeria Albums Chart, cementing its status as one of the year’s most dominant releases.

The album’s sustained success reflects more than just strong debut numbers—it’s a testament to Asake’s ability to create music that resonates deeply with audiences across Nigeria and beyond. M$NEY showcases the artist’s signature fusion of Afrobeats rhythms with Fuji-inspired melodies and cutting-edge production, a sonic blend that has kept listeners streaming week after week. The project’s unwavering grip on the top position demonstrates both the quality of the music and the loyalty of Asake’s rapidly expanding fanbase.

With eight weeks at number one, M$NEY is now just one week away from tying the year’s longest chart run. That record currently belongs to REAL, vol 1, Asake’s collaborative EP with Wizkid, which commanded the summit for nine consecutive weeks earlier this year. If M$NEY maintains its position for another week, it will match that benchmark, further solidifying Asake’s extraordinary 2026 dominance on the streaming platform.

The achievement underscores Asake’s remarkable commercial consistency and his ability to set new standards in the Nigerian music industry. As the album continues its impressive chart performance, the question now is whether it will equal or even surpass the nine-week milestone, adding yet another accomplishment to an already stellar year for the artist.
