Gyakie keeps climbing the charts as her newest single, ‘Sankofa,’ officially enters the Billboard U.S. Afrobeats chart, marking a notable milestone that showcases her growing international presence.

Taken from her forthcoming debut album After Midnight, the song has also secured a position among the Top 5 Trending videos on YouTube in Ghana, highlighting its broad appeal across both domestic and global audiences.

Released only a few weeks back, “Sankofa” has already gathered millions of streams and appears poised to keep growing. Although this marks her first appearance on the Billboard U.S. Afrobeats chart, Gyakie has previously made waves on several other charts, further solidifying her position as one of Africa’s most exciting female voices and highlighting her growing influence on the international stage as she continues to bridge cultures with her signature sound.

On YouTube, the track’s lively visuals and uplifting message resonated with listeners, swiftly catapulting it into Ghana’s Top 5 Trending list. This viral surge strengthens Gyakie’s standing as a genre‑blending artist who uniquely fuses profound lyricism with catchy grooves.

With her highly anticipated album After Midnight scheduled for release later this year, the triumph of “Sankofa” sets the stage for what promises to be one of the most discussed African music projects of 2025.

In the meantime, listeners can stream “Sankofa” on all major platforms and continue following the official video on YouTube.
