Tyla has reached No. 1 on Billboard’s U.S. Afrobeats Songs chart with “Is It Love,” adding another major chart moment to her growing international run.
The latest chart update places the South African singer back at the top, continuing the momentum she built with earlier hits including “Water,” “Push 2 Start,” and “Chanel.” The achievement also reflects the wider growth of African pop in the United States, where Afrobeats, amapiano, R&B, and pop influences are reaching more listeners.
“Is It Love” follows a period of strong visibility for Tyla, whose breakout single “Water” became a global hit and introduced her sound to a much broader audience. Since then, she has remained active across streaming platforms, radio, awards stages, and international music charts.
The new No. 1 shows that Tyla’s success is continuing beyond one breakout track. Her music keeps connecting with audiences as U.S. listeners become more familiar with African pop styles and their regional sounds.
