Asake’s M$NEY Becomes Second Highest-Charting Nigerian Album Ever on Global Spotify

Asake continues his historic global run as his latest project, M$NEY, officially debuts at #18 on the Global Spotify Weekly Top Albums Chart.

The achievement marks Asake’s third career entry on the chart, further strengthening his position as one of the most commercially successful African artists in the streaming era. Even more significantly, M$NEY now becomes the second highest-charting Nigerian album of all time on the Global Spotify Weekly Albums chart.

The milestone reflects the massive worldwide demand surrounding the project since its release. From Nigeria to international markets, M$NEY has dominated streaming conversations, playlist placements, and chart rankings, reinforcing Asake’s growing influence beyond Africa.

Known for blending Fuji-inspired melodies, street-pop energy, and amapiano-infused production, Asake has consistently developed a sound that resonates both locally and globally. With M$NEY, he continues that momentum while pushing his commercial reach to even greater heights.

The #18 debut also highlights the increasing global power of Afrobeats and African streaming audiences overall. Nigerian albums are now competing more directly on worldwide charts traditionally dominated by Western acts, signaling a major shift in global music consumption.

For Asake, this latest achievement adds to an already remarkable run for M$NEY, which has continued to break streaming records and dominate charts since release. The album’s strong global debut further confirms his status as one of the defining African artists of his generation.
