Ghanaian music duo R2Bees have reached an impressive new milestone with their hit song “Over,” which has surged to the number one spot on the Official UK Afrobeat Chart.
Originally released on September 20, 2017, the track has become the second Ghanaian song to achieve this remarkable feat, following Moliy’s “Shake It to the Max” featuring Silent Addy.
Produced by renowned Ghanaian producer Killbeatz, “Over” has enjoyed a stunning resurgence in 2026, reconnecting with audiences both at home and across the globe.
The song also appears on R2Bees’ 2019 album Site 15, further demonstrating the track’s enduring appeal and continued influence in the Afrobeat and hiplife space. Nearly a decade after its release, “Over” is proving that timeless music always finds its way back to the spotlight.

This achievement underscores R2Bees’ growing impact on the global music stage and reflects the rising international appetite for Ghanaian sounds. With “Over” topping the UK Afrobeat Chart, the duo once again reinforces their reputation as pioneers and leading figures in Ghana’s vibrant music industry while inspiring a new generation of artistes.
R2Bees, comprising cousins Faisal Hakeem and Rashid Mugeez, are a Ghanaian hip-hop and hip life duo from Tema. Known for their smooth blend of rap, melody, and street-inspired storytelling, the pair has been a dominant force in Ghanaian music for over a decade.
Their influence has extended far beyond Ghana’s borders, including a nomination at the BET Awards in 2013. In March 2019, the duo released their third studio album, Site 15, a project that further cemented their legacy and showcased their versatility.
Today, with “Over” topping the UK Afrobeat Chart years after its debut, R2Bees continue to demonstrate the timeless power of their music and their enduring place at the forefront of African music.
