Tyla’s breakout hit “Water” continues to wave across radio charts, securing the top spot on Billboard’s Adult R&B Airplay list dated February 24.
The track’s meteoric rise follows a 25% surge in plays, propelling it to No. 1 and earning the coveted Greatest Gainer award for the week.
Chart-Topping Success: A Breakthrough for Tyla:
At just 22 years old, Tyla achieves her first Adult R&B Airplay No. 1 with her debut appearance on the chart.
“Water” has enjoyed widespread success, topping the Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart for eight non-consecutive weeks and the Rhythmic Airplay chart for one week.
The track’s radio dominance adds to Tyla’s winning streak, culminating in her recent Grammy Award win for Best African Music Performance.
Steadfast Presence: “Water” Continues its Reign:
While “Water” maintains its stronghold on various charts, including a sixth week at No. 2 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart, it faces stiff competition from SZA’s “Snooze,” which secures a historic 31st week at No. 1, setting a new record for the chart’s longest-running song.
Crossover Appeal and Continued Momentum:
Demonstrating its crossover appeal, “Water” also leads the Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart for a third consecutive week and holds steady at No. 8 on the Pop Airplay chart.
Meanwhile, Tyla’s second single, “Truth or Dare,” enters the rankings, debuting at No. 40 on Rhythmic Airplay and No. 44 on R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay, signaling continued momentum for the rising star.
Anticipation Builds for Debut Album Release:
Both “Water” and “Truth or Dare” are set to feature on Tyla’s highly anticipated self-titled debut album, slated for release on March 22.
With her infectious sound and chart-topping success, Tyla’s ascent in the music industry shows no signs of slowing down.
