Chart Check [Hot 100]: Tyla’s ‘Water’ is the Week’s Top-Selling R&B Song

Tyla‘s breakout hit ‘Water‘ already made a historic splash on the Hot 100 when it premiered on the all-genre chart two weeks ago, but now – thanks to rising streams, radio airplay, and sales – the Sammy Soso-produced bop is sailing toward even higher heights.

The South African hitmaker earned her inaugural Billboard #1 last week when she saw her name printed atop the Afrobeats chart (where she’s found again this week).

Elsewhere, the newcomer reigns over the R&B Digital Song Sales listing as well, hovering over the genre’s leading hits like ‘Snooze‘ (SZA), ‘Good Good‘ (Usher), and others. Here are the numbers that powered its placement across multiple charts.

Digital downloads ≈ 2,000 sold
Streaming ≈ 9.7 million U.S.-based streams
Radio Airplay ≈ 10.7 million audience impressions

The combination of handsome sales, streaming, and radio airplay spurred a 17-spot jump from last week – placing ‘Water’ at #46 on the refreshed Hot 100 and making it the highest rung she’s reached on the tally yet.
