Ghanaian rapper Kweku Smoke has achieved a major streaming milestone, securing 13 of the 20 positions on Apple Music Ghana’s Top 20 chart, updated on October 26, 2026. His collaboration with Lasmid, “Faith,” leads the chart at No. 1.

The rapper’s dominance goes beyond the top position. “Bra” ranks at No. 2, while “Bombele” takes No. 3. Other entries include “Survivor” at No. 5, “Soul Healer” at No. 6, “Halleluyah” at No. 7, “Mmereniho” at No. 8 and “Okwantunii” at No. 9. This means Kweku Smoke holds eight of the chart’s top 10 positions.

His remaining entries include “Power House” at No. 11, “Life Of A Hustler” at No. 15, “No Days Off” at No. 16, “Set It Straight” at No. 19 and “Through The Pain” at No. 20.

Why This Is a Big Moment

Fans see this achievement as a major moment because it shows the lasting impact of Kweku Smoke’s album, No Days Off, released on September 4, 2026. Nearly seven weeks after its release, all 13 tracks from the project have appeared in the chart’s top 20.

His total also increased from 12 songs in the previous week's chart snapshot to 13, following the arrival of “Through The Pain” at No. 20.

Having more than half of the chart occupied by one artist is an impressive result. It suggests that listeners are continuing to stream the album rather than focusing only on its first few days of release.

What It Says About Ghanaian Rap

Kweku Smoke’s performance highlights the growing visibility of Ghanaian rap on digital streaming platforms. His success shows how a strong album, consistent releases and collaborations can help a local rapper compete for attention across an entire national chart.

Other Ghanaian artists also remain part of the conversation. Kofi Mole’s “BALOTELLI (SUPA)” sits at No. 4, while Fameye’s “Gen Z” ranks at No. 17.

Although one weekly chart cannot represent the entire Ghanaian music industry, Kweku Smoke’s 13 entries demonstrate the strong streaming response to his latest project.

For now, the rapper has made a powerful statement on Apple Music Ghana, with “Faith” leading the way and eight of his songs occupying the top 10.
