As afrobeats genre continues to spread across borders, it has become a common feature for Nigerian songs to dominate charts across other climes within its birth region of West Africa. Stretching this legacy, the Nigerian music community has recorded a new feat as it dominated the top 10 most listened songs for 2023 in its neighbouring Ghana on Apple Music.

The charts unveiled, Tuesday, showed that all the top 10 songs streamed by Ghanaians in the past 12 months were Nigerian hits. According to Apple Music, the analysis was based on plays between November 1, 2022 and October 31, 2023.

Leading the pack was Asake with Lonely At The Top as the most listened song in Ghana this year, while Victony’s Soweto followed in second lead, with Young Jonn’s Xtra Cool following close in third position.

Ruger’s Asiwaju made an appearance in the fourth spot, followed by Omah Lay’s Soso in fifth. Ayra Starr’s Rush races swiftly in sixth position and Fireboy DML and Asake’s Bandana soar for its charm in seventh position.

Apart from being nominated for a Grammy, Davido’s hit single, Unavailable, occupied the eight spot, with Burna Boy’s global smash hit, Last Last, ranked at Ninth and Asake’s Terminator closing the curtains for the top 10 songs.

Afrobeats’ expanding influence wasn’t limited to Ghana, according to Apple Music’s charts, but extended to Kenya whose top 10 was also dominated by Afrobeats songs.
