Gospel superstar Sinach was recently touted as the first African to top the Billboard Christian Songwriters Chart.
Her song “Waymaker,” originally released in 2016, recently gained massive popularity following performances by The Elevation Worship and other Christian rock bands.
But it was Leeland’s Waymaker (Live) that shot the song into Billboard Top 10 hits. Another version of the song by Michael W. Smith featuring Vanessa Campagna and Madelyn Berry also lit up the charts.
Sinach took to her Twitter on Wednesday to share the good news.
