Ganja Man’s “Bayanin Naira” has been one of the longer-running entries on Spotify’s Top Hausa 100 this year, holding its place since a February 21 release.
The title translates roughly as an accounting of money, and the subject matter puts it closer to the street-rap end of the Arewa spectrum than to the romance material that dominates much of the playlist.
That lane has grown considerably, with UK Boy’s Hausa drill and ClassiQ’s hip-hop both finding audiences well beyond the North.
The Arewa scene has leaned harder into streaming through 2026, with newer acts building audiences on playlists rather than through the Kannywood soundtrack route that carried earlier generations.
“Bayanin Naira” by Ganja Man is available on all streaming platforms.
