Impressive on its own accord, the feat is rendered all the more impactful given that the song is just getting starting on radio + streaming platforms and will undoubtedly benefit from the viewership of its incoming music video.

Notably, the top 5 placement is Normani’s first in the region as a solo artist (having amassed two previous entries with Fifth Harmony’s ‘Worth It’ and ‘Work From Home’). It’s Smith’s ninth.

And with the song smashing in the US too, folks it looks as though this may be 2019’s first official “hit-hit.”
