’Nobody’ by Kwesi Arthur featuring Mr Eazi, has won over the hearts of many music lovers since its release.
The song is the fourth song on Kwesi Arthur’s album Live From Nkrumah Krom Vol 2 (LFNKII) released in April 2019. With fans enjoying the versatility the artiste offered on the album, the song did not immediately seize the attention of listeners.
However, it quickly peaked up after the video, which featured actress and TV show host Efia Odo, went viral.

The song has evolved to surpass African girl featuring Shatta Wale as the most popular song on the album but that may not be the end of its journey.
As Kwesi Arthur readies for his solo sold-out concert in London this July, many fans are waiting so patiently to see the artiste perform the song live for his audience.
At number two is ‘Shuga’ by Stonebwoy featuring Beenie Man. The song which had topped the charts twice in a row, is one of Stonebwoy’s numerous collaborations with foreign acts, his way of pushing Ghanaian style of music to the world.
Maintaining its position from last week is Fameye’s ‘Nothing I Get’. The song has pushed Fameye from being a struggling underground to gaining recognition in the mainstream.
