Ghanaian singer Gyakie has recorded a major surge in global listenership, with her Spotify streams jumping by 145% in August 2026 to propel her to the top of the monthly rankings for Ghanaian artistes.
Gyakie accumulated 28.14 million global streams across all credits during the month, up significantly from the 11.5 million streams she recorded in July.
Figures shared by Chart Ghana on X show that the increase was enough to move Gyakie ahead of Moliy, who had dominated the Spotify rankings for Ghanaian artistes throughout the first seven months of the year.
The sharp rise highlights the growing reach of Gyakie’s music, with listeners in Ghana and international markets contributing to the strong performance of her catalogue.
Her latest streaming numbers strengthen her position among Ghana’s leading contemporary artistes and underline the increasing international demand for Ghanaian music.
The August milestone also represents a significant improvement in Gyakie’s streaming performance within a single month, as her global audience continues to expand.
Her management team, FlipTheMusic, has continued to push her catalogue and pursue opportunities aimed at introducing her music to audiences beyond Ghana.
The development comes as Gyakie continues to build her profile within Ghana’s music industry while positioning herself as one of the country’s emerging music exports.
Her rise to the top of the August Spotify rankings also signals growing competition among Ghanaian artistes for international streaming audiences, with monthly figures increasingly serving as an indicator of an artiste’s global reach and momentum.
