Masicka, Jamal, and Pablo YG Lead New Entries on YouTube Jamaica Chart — Week Ending October 9, 2025

A wave of new releases is shaking up the YouTube Jamaica charts this week, as Dancehall star Masicka, rising hitmaker Jamal, and breakout newcomer Pablo YG all debut strong with fresh entries.

At the top, jaame.sss’ “Beloved and Blessed (Reggae Version)” featuring Skatta Lopa holds firm at No. 1 for a sixth non-consecutive week, pulling in 475,026 weekly views—a massive +107,821 gain from last week. But the spotlight this round belongs to the newcomers and climbers who have injected new energy into the rankings.

Masicka Makes a Strong Return with “La Cabra”

Dancehall’s lyrical powerhouse Masicka storms into the chart at No. 4 with his brand-new track “La Cabra”, amassing 228,981 streams in its first week. The song marks his highest debut since “Rich Sex”, which remains on the chart at No. 5 after 15 weeks. Masicka continues to dominate 2025’s digital landscape with precision — his back-to-back releases highlight both consistency and adaptability, balancing gritty street narratives with crossover-ready hits.

Jamal’s Dual Entries Cement His Momentum

Rising artist Jamal continues his chart momentum, notching two new songs in the Top 20. His breakout single “Godspeed” rockets six spots to No. 2, earning 230,119 weekly streams (+71,224), while his latest drop “Nah Dead Poor” makes an impressive debut at No. 15 with 124,163 views. The young crooner now holds three active chart positions, including “Motivate” at No. 19 — a testament to his fast-growing fanbase and sharp storytelling appeal.

Skippa Dominates the Mid-Chart with Three Tracks

Skippa maintains his multi-hit momentum with “10 Past 2” climbing to No. 3, “Evil” steady at No. 7, and “Go” still holding at No. 8. His blend of melodic grit and street-smart lyricism continues to resonate with Jamaican audiences, making him one of 2025’s most consistent performers on YouTube.
