The Second Voice’s groundbreaking AI-assisted single “Let Me Be” continues its run atop the Billboard U.S. Afrobeats Songs chart, holding firm at No. 1 for a sixth week on the chart dated June 13, 2026.

Released via Spinnin’ Records, a subsidiary of Warner Music, the track produced by a faceless Zambian creator using Ai vocals has now spent 15 weeks on the chart. The song has surpassed 47 million streams on Spotify and previously charted No. 1 on Shazam Global chart.

While “Let Me Be” continues to dominate, Tyla remains one of the chart’s strongest forces. Her global smash “Water”stays at No. 2 in its 145th week on the chart, while “Chanel” holds steady at No. 3.

The South African star’s continued presence near the top reflects the enduring popularity of her catalog and her ability to maintain momentum long after her breakthrough success.

Asake Floods The Top 20

Nigerian superstar Asake once again demonstrates his chart power with an impressive collection of entries throughout the Top 20. His latest single “Forgiveness” climbs to No. 5, while tracks including “Gratitude,” “MCBH,” “Wa,” “Rora,” “Oba,” “Amen,” and “Asambe” continue to populate the chart.

The sustained performance of multiple tracks highlights the strong reception to his latest project and reinforces his position as one of Afrobeats’ most dominant artists.

“Shake It To The Max (Fly)” Continues Its Strong Run

Holding at No. 4, “Shake It To The Max (Fly)” by MOLIY, Silent Addy, Skillibeng and Shenseea remains one of the year’s biggest crossover records. The track has now spent 67 weeks on the chart.

This week’s chart welcomes several new entries.

Young Jonn’s “Elumelu” debuts at No. 19, becoming the highest-charting new entry of the week. Further down the ranking, Victony’s “FRE$H” arrives at No. 36, while “Energy” by G4ZI and Kizz Daniel enters at No. 39.

These debuts add fresh momentum to a chart that continues to balance established stars with emerging voices.

Omah Lay And Wizkid Stay In The Mix

Elsewhere, Omah Lay maintains a significant presence with multiple charting titles, including “I Am” at No. 17 and “Don’t Love Me” at No. 29. Meanwhile, Wizkid continues his strong showing through collaborations with Asake, including “Jogodo,” “Turbulence,” and “Alaye.”

The Story Of The Week

Despite a chart packed with Afrobeats heavyweights, the headline remains the same: “Let Me Be” refuses to budge.

As the song extends its reign to six consecutive weeks at No. 1, The Second Voice’s AI-powered smash is proving that innovation and audience demand can coexist at the highest levels of the genre. With streaming numbers remaining strong and competition mounting from every direction, the question is no longer whether “Let Me Be” is a hit—but how much longer its historic run can continue.
