Sugar Sweet, the second release from Mariah Carey’s forthcoming 16th studio album Here For It All (due September 26), continues to make sweet moves on various charts.
A week ago the song, which also features dancehall artiste Shenseea and American singer Kehlani, rose to #41 on the UK Singles chart. It also peaked at #17 in Japan, #16 in New Zealand, and #106 on South Korea Top 200.
On the latest Billboard charts, Sugar Sweet darts from #40 to #33 in its second week on R&B/Hip Hop Airplay, while slipping from #20 to #23 on Hot R&B Songs where it got a far as #17. Meanwhile, it rises from #36 to #24 on Mainstream R&B/Hip Hop Airplay in its second week.
Shake it to the Max (Fly) remix continues its downward trajectory on some Billboard charts. The song by MOLIY, Silent Addy, Skillibeng and Shenseea is down to #4 on Billboard’s Rhythmic Top 40 Airplay (it peaked at #1 for two weeks), dips from #59 to #65 on the Hot 100 chart. It improves from #6 to #3 on R&B/Hip Hop Digital Song Sales, while backtracking from #16 to #19 on Mainstream R&B/Hip Hop Airplay where it peaked at #3.
Over on the Billboard Canadian Hot 100, the song falls from #45 to #48 having peaked at #24, while slipping two spots down to #20 on R&B/Hip Hop Airplay. On Hot R&B/Hip Hop Songs, it creeps up to #14 up from #15 after its #10 peak a few weeks ago.
On the US Afrobeats Songs chart, it remains at #1 for a 10th week, while on Billboard’s Radio Songs, it slides down from #34 to #40, but it fares better on Pop Airplay stepping up from #30 to #28 in its 6th week.
And speaking of the Rhythmic Top 40 Airplay chart, Sean Paul’s Ginger moves up from #22 to #20 in its 5th week.
Now onto the Billboard Reggae Albums chart, there is very little movement compared to last week’s chart.
Bob Marley and the Wailers are on top for 292 non-consecutive weeks with Legend, while Shaggy’s Best of Shaggy: The Boombastic Collection remains at #2, and Sean Paul’s Dutty Classics Collection is firm at #3.
