Top Ghana Artists & Songs 2022
Check out our list of the top 12 Ghana artists and their songs in 2022. They are at the top of their game, so is their song
While many would think the world’s focus is only on Afrobeats which originated from Nigeria, the truth is that music from Africa as a whole has gripped the world. It isn’t just Afrobeats. Ghanaian music has gained so much attention for years now, with artists like Shatta Wale, Stonebwoy, Sarkodie, and more championing the cause.
A few years back, Shatta Wale snagged a feature with multiple Grammys winner Beyoncé Knowles and did justice to it. Ghanaian artists have also won some of the world’s most coveted awards and have continued to rise. Since the previous year, a long list of Ghanaian artists have dominated the scene with their music and also collaborated with some of the biggest names in the African music industry.
This year, they have continued to deliver. Some of 2021’s previous jams have spilled into this year. While some new jams have been released since January, and the world cannot stop listening. Here is a list of the top 12 Ghanaian artists so far in 2022. This list is in no particular order.
1. King Promise
26-year-old Gregory Bortey Newman, popularly known as King Promise, is one of Ghana’s leading Highlife and Afrobeats artists. Both a singer and a songwriter, King Promise has made a massive reputation for himself with a long list of hits.
