Canton Jones Reaches Number One on Gospel Chart With Praise On Go

Canton Jones hit the top spot on the Mediabase Gospel Top 40 chart for the week ending September 5, 2026, with his single "Praise On Go."

The track was released on March 6, 2026, under IGA Digital, Tribl, Sony, and CAJO Records. Jones wrote the song alongside Damon W. Stewart, and handled production, mixing, and mastering himself through Co-Signed Ent.

The three-minute track has built momentum steadily since its release, climbing the gospel radio charts over several months before reaching the top position.

Jones, a veteran gospel artist known for blending hip-hop and contemporary gospel sounds, has been a consistent presence on gospel charts for more than two decades. "Praise On Go" marks one of his strongest chart performances in recent years.

The song's rise comes during a busy period for gospel music. The 41st Annual Stellar Gospel Music Awards took place in August 2026, and several artists have released new material in the weeks since.

Black Gospel Radio, which tracks gospel chart activity, confirmed the number one placement for the week of September 5. The song has also gained traction on streaming platforms, where gospel music has seen steady growth in listener numbers over the past two years.

Jones has not announced a full album to accompany the single, but industry observers expect more releases before the end of 2026.
