It’s a good week to be plugged into Afrobeats. Five standout releases are already shaping the conversation—and lighting up dancefloors. Leading the charge is Adekunle Gold, who channels a money-minded mood on “Coco Money,” delivering slick confidence over an infectious groove. Right behind him is SPINALL, linking up with Young Jonn on “Kerosene,” a club-ready banger engineered to ignite speakers. Together, they bring bold energy and undeniable swagger, setting the tone for a week filled with fire.

But that’s just the beginning. From genre-blurring collaborations to emotionally rich solo efforts, this week’s drops prove one thing: Afrobeats isn’t slowing down, it’s evolving. Whether you’re craving late-night mood-setters, global fusions, or straight-up bangers, these releases offer something for every kind of listener.

Here’s a look at the top songs released by Afrobeats artists this week…

#1. Adekunle Gold – Coco Money

After teasing it at an exclusive dinner in May, Adekunle Gold has finally unveiled “Coco Money”—a swagger-drenched anthem that finds him in full “AG Baby” mode. Blending Afro-pop, highlife, and Afrobeats into a sleek sonic cocktail, the track is a masterclass in smooth delivery and confident bravado. Produced by Niphkeys, it features a clever interpolation of Rihanna’s “BBHMM,” reinforcing themes of wealth, power, and self-assurance.

From the hypnotic beat to the sharp songwriting, every element is designed to command attention. And when Adekunle declares, “k’owo pe o, k’owo pe, b*tch better have my money,” there’s no mistaking the luxurious intentions behind the track. As the follow-up to “Obimo,” “Coco Money” marks another bold stride in his ascent to global stardom.

#2. SPINALL ft. Young Jonn – Kerosene

“KEROSENE” is aptly named—it’s straight-up fire. Produced by SPINALL and GOJI, the track ignites from the start with hypnotic percussion that builds into a full-blown, club-ready banger. Young Jonn is in top form here, effortlessly toggling between crisp vocals and sharp ad-libs, riding the beat with the infectious energy that’s become his signature.

As always, SPINALL proves himself a sonic architect, fusing Afrobeats with electronic dance music to create a high-octane hybrid made for late-night parties and packed dancefloors. “KEROSENE” doesn’t just light things up, it sets the tone for his upcoming album Eko Groove, which promises more genre-bending heat. It’s a collaboration that delivers on every level and demands a spot on your weekend rotation.

#3. Shallipopi ft. Rauw Alejandro – Laho III

Shallipopi continues his global takeover with “Laho III,” a sizzling remix of his street anthem, this time featuring Latin reggaeton star Rauw Alejandro. The track fuses Afro-street pop with Latin urban flair, thanks to the slick production work of Progrex, Dimelo, and Ninow El Zorro.

Right from the jump, Shallipopi’s signature slang and magnetic energy take center stage. Then comes Rauw, sliding in with a silky Spanish verse that adds a whole new flavor. It’s a seamless back-and-forth that proves music needs no translation. From its boisterous chants to the Caribbean-laced beat, “Laho III” is a celebration of indulgence, of freedom, of youthful rebellion. And after the massive wave of “Laho II” with Burna Boy, this latest remix is clear proof: Shallipopi isn’t just riding the momentum. He’s building a legacy, one banger at a time.

#4. Lojay – Tenner

Lojay has carved a niche as a master of genre-bending sound, and his latest single “Tenner” only deepens that reputation. Produced by Black Culture, the track blends Afrobeats with a brooding, alternative edge, delivering a sonic experience that feels both intimate and expansive.

Lojay’s emotive vocals pull listeners into a world of longing and romantic tension, capturing the raw vulnerability that sets him apart. The moody production is layered with infectious rhythms, striking a rare balance between introspective and danceable. With his debut album XOXO set to drop on August 22, “Tenner” is a poignant teaser, hinting at the emotional depth and musical richness that await across the upcoming 14-track project.

#5. Mr Eazi – Corny

With “Corny,” Mr Eazi slides back into the spotlight, exuding his signature laid-back charm and genre-blending finesse. The track is a mellow gem, anchored by Eazi’s unmistakable vocal cadence and his gift for effortless storytelling. While its structure leans on simplicity, “Corny” resonates deeply, revealing emotional vulnerability beneath its easy-going rhythm.

True to form, Eazi strikes that delicate balance between introspection and mass appeal. It plays like a page torn from a personal journal, set to the soft pulse of Afrobeat, making it a seamless fit for any relaxed playlist. With this release, Mr Eazi reaffirms his place as one of Afrobeats’ most consistent and compelling voices.
