Following its incredible release and worldwide acceptance, here are the top records Asake’s new album, ‘M$NEY’, has set so far.
Asake’s new album, M$NEY, has wasted no time making its mark. Released on May 1, 2026, the project has quickly become one of the most talked-about African albums of the year, pushing the Nigerian star into another historic phase of his career.
The album reached number one on the UK Apple Music chart, giving Asake another major international streaming achievement. With this milestone, he became the first African artist to have five projects reach number one on UK Apple Music, further proving his strong hold on one of Afrobeats’ most important overseas markets.
This achievement is especially significant because the UK has long been one of Asake’s strongest territories outside Nigeria. From sold-out shows to consistent chart success, his relationship with British listeners has grown into a key part of his global rise. M$NEY reaching the top of the UK Apple Music chart shows that his fanbase is not only loyal but also powerful enough to push his projects to record-breaking heights.
Beyond Apple Music, Asake also made history on Spotify. In the days following the album’s release, he became the highest-charting African artist in the history of Spotify’s Global Top Artists chart, setting a new benchmark for African music on the global streaming stage.
The momentum did not stop there. Asake also appeared strongly on global digital artist rankings, with reports placing him at number 15 on the World’s Global Digital Artists list. This reflects how widely his music was being consumed across different digital platforms after the release of M$NEY.
For Asake, these records add another layer to a career already defined by speed, consistency and impact. Since breaking into the mainstream, he has built a reputation for delivering projects that dominate charts, spark conversations and stretch the global reach of Afrobeats. M$NEY continues that pattern, showing that his commercial influence remains one of the strongest in African music.
Asake’s latest achievements place him at the center of that movement, proving once again that Nigerian music continues to shape global pop culture.
With M$NEY, Asake has not only released another successful album. He has strengthened his position as one of Africa’s most dominant streaming-era artists and set new standards for what African albums can achieve internationally.
