Ghana’s beloved Songbird is at it again. On June 17, 2026, Gyakie (@Gyakie_) took to X with a clean, minimalist post that sent waves through the Afrobeats and Afro-fusion community: “26th June, TREASURE”.
No elaborate graphics. No long caption. Just pure anticipation and fans are already losing their minds.
Who Is Gyakie? A Quick Refresher ?
Jackline Acheampong, professionally known as Gyakie (or Songbird), was born on December 16, 1999, in Kumasi, Ghana. Daughter of highlife legend Nana Acheampong, she grew up immersed in music and began singing at the tender age of six.
She burst onto the scene in 2019 and quickly became one of the most exciting voices in contemporary African music. Blending Afro-fusion, Highlife, Alternative R&B, and soulful Afrobeats, Gyakie is celebrated for her effortless vocals, emotional depth, and storytelling that feels both personal and universal.
Her breakout hit “Forever” (later remixed with Omah Lay) became a multi-platinum sensation across Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya, and beyond. Follow-up projects like the Seed and My Diary EPs, along with tracks like “Something,” “Rent Free,” and “December,” have solidified her as a consistent force in the industry.
What We Know About “Treasure” So Far
Teasers dropped earlier in June 2026 have fans describing the track as sultry, bouncy, and emotionally rich. Early snippets circulating on Instagram, TikTok, and X show Gyakie in full Songbird mode — smooth delivery, infectious melody, and that signature warmth that makes listeners hit repeat.
The single is available for pre-save, and the label (Flip The Music / Sony Music) is already calling it potential “Single of the Year” material.
The replies to Gyakie’s announcement post are pure vibes:
- Students at UPSA are already planning to turn up when she performs it live.
- One fan discovered it’s dropping on their birthday (“that’s my birthdayyyy ”).
- Others are demanding a proper fanbase name (“we need a fan base name”).
- Viral clips show people — especially ladies — already jamming to the teaser.
The energy is high, the countdown is on, and the Ghanaian music community is united in excitement.
Gyakie represents the new generation of Ghanaian artists who are confidently exporting soulful, genre-blending sound to the world while staying rooted in their heritage. In an era where Afrobeats and Afro-fusion dominate global charts, “Treasure” feels like another milestone moment — not just for her career, but for Ghanaian music as a whole.
Whether you’re a longtime “Treasure Maker” (yes, that’s what fans are being called) or discovering her now, mark your calendars.
June 26, 2026, Gyakie is serving something special.
