The single enters the chart at No. 59, marking a major milestone for the duo and signaling the growing global reach of their sound.  

A Defining Chart Moment

For Tyla, the debut continues a rapid rise in the U.S. market following the success of “Water,” which made her one of the few African artists to break into the Hot 100.  

For Zara Larsson, it marks a strong return to the chart with a fresh crossover moment this time anchored in a global pop-Afrofusion blend.

Together, they’ve created something that doesn’t sit in one lane:

  • Pop
  • Afropop
  • R&B textures

All in one record.

Why This Debut Matters

  • It’s their highest first-week entry
  • It reflects strong streaming + early momentum
  • It positions the track for upward movement in coming weeks

The Power of Collaboration

“She Did It Again” also highlights a bigger trend:

Cross-market collaborations are driving chart success.
