Blxckie’s ‘YENA’ Continues Its Run At #1 On Apple Music Hip-Hop Chart. Blxckie is making his presence felt once again, and this time, the numbers are doing all the talking. The South African rapper has secured the number one position on the Hip-Hop/Rap Top Albums chart with his latest project, YENA.
He shared a screenshot of the chart on Tuesday evening, giving believers and supporters another reason to celebrate his latest musical achievement.
Sitting behind him is Lil Baby’s FRESH at number two, followed by Drake’s ICEMAN in third place. Fellow South African rapper Loatinover Pounds also makes an appearance in the top four with Ground 2 Glory.
The achievement arrives less than two weeks after Blxckie released YENA on 30 October through Somnyama Music Entertainment and EMPIRE. Marking his first full-length project since the release of his gold-certified debut album B4Now, the 15-track offering signals another important chapter in the Durban-born rapper’s musical journey.
Taking its name from his long-standing moniker, Somnyama Yena Yedwa, YENA showcases Blxckie’s continued evolution while maintaining the distinctive sound that has helped establish his place in South African hip-hop.
The album brings together an exciting selection of collaborators, including A-Reece on ‘bonkerz’, Bas on ‘cover me’ and L.A.X on the previously released ‘lonely’. Usimamane, KindlyNxsh and K1llbrady also make appearances, adding their respective flavours to the project.
With a blend of introspective songwriting, melodic explorations and hard-hitting hip-hop, YENA gives listeners a glimpse into how much Blxckie has grown as an artist since his debut.
Interestingly, the rapper let the chart achievement speak for itself, sharing the screenshot without an accompanying caption. No lengthy announcement was necessary, as the number one position made the statement.
His achievement also comes as another encouraging moment for South African hip-hop, with Loatinover Pounds securing a place among the chart’s top four.
For Blxckie, YENA is already making the kind of impact that speaks to the anticipation surrounding his return. The new chapter has officially begun, and he is doing it from the top.
