Tyla Reigns as No. 1 Afrobeats Artist of 2024, ‘Water’ Is Top Song


Tyla's breakthrough year leads to twin wins on the 2024 year-end Billboard U.S. Afrobeats Songs scoreboards.

The single drowned the competition and charged to a 51-week domination on the list during the chart year, stepping aside for only one week during that time, for Asake and Travis Scott’s one-week champ, “Active.” The rankings for Luminate-based recaps reflect equivalent album units, airplay, sales or streaming during the weeks that the titles appeared on a respective chart during the tracking year. The Nigerian performer debuted 16 additional songs on the list in the 2024 chart year, from both his November 2023 EP, Ravage, and 2024 full-length album, HEIS.
