Released independently via Autobamb, the project sits atop the charts in Jamaica, Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, Cayman Islands, Dominica, Grenada, Guyana, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, and Turks and Caicos, signaling a dominant regional takeover.

Fueling the surge are standout tracks “Different Story,” “Graduate,” and “Sacrifice.”  In Jamaica, Alkaline delivers a historic showing, sweeping the entire Top 10 on Apple Music while holding 14 of the Top 20 spots.

The dominance continues with “Masterpiece” (#11) and “No Emotions” (#12), while “Rope Een” (#14), “Key Man” (#16), “Our World” (#17), and “Outro” (#20) extend his grip across the chart.

Leading the charge is “Different Story,” the album’s breakout hit, which has already secured No. 1 in five Caribbean markets—Antigua & Barbuda, Grenada, Guyana, Jamaica, and St. Vincent & the Grenadines. While no other track has reached the summit, Alkaline continues to dominate across key territories including Antigua, Grenada, Guyana, and St. Vincent, with “Graduate” peaking at #2 in four countries (Grenada, Guyana, Jamaica, and St. Vincent) and #3 in Antigua, alongside a strong #2 position on YouTube’s Jamaica chart.

Globally, NPT is making solid impact on Apple Music, landing Top 50 positions in both Canada (#44) and the United States (#47), while also charting across Africa and Europe, including Ghana, Zimbabwe, and the UK.

On iTunes, the album has already hit No. 1 in five countries—Antigua and Barbuda, Belize, Cayman Islands, Gambia, and Saint Kitts and Nevis—and reached an impressive #4 on the U.S. all-genre iTunes chart, alongside Top 10 placements in Canada(#7), Trinidad & Tobago, and Bermuda.
