Dancehall artist Byron Messia’s “No Love” climbs to No. 3 on the U.S. Billboard Reggae Albums chart dated August 5, 2023. The album released January 20, 2023 had debuted at No. 8 the week of June 10 and has remained on the chart since.
Talibans 2 also entered the US Hot 100 at No. 99. This is the first time a St. Kitts dancehall artist has entered the Hot 100.
It is also the second Trap Dancehall song to make the chart following “Crocodile Teeth Remix” by Skillibeng and Nicki Minaj spent one week at 100 in May 2021. At the time Skillibeng was the first Jamaican to hit the chart in four years.
Burna Boy hopped on the Talibans remix and the two dropped a music video that was recorded while the African Giant was on vacation in Jamaica. Talibans original debuted at No. 67 on the U.K.’s Official Charts in June and reached a new peak last week at No. 12.
The original music video for Talibans has surpassed 39 million streams on YouTube while the remix with Burna is at 4.5 million. The first video features a clothed Jada Kingdom shaking her bottom to the line “AK shake like Jada Kingdom,’ and in the remix Burna Boy drops the line “Me buy a Burnin for Jada Kingdom,” sparking speculations that the two are dating.
“No Love” which has 16 tracks is released on Ztekk Records.
