Music Fans: Historic Achievement by Tamela Mann in Gospel Airplay Charts
Mann has achieved her record 11th No. 1 on Billboard’s Gospel Airplay chart with her uplifting song Working for Me. This accomplishment breaks her tie with gospel legend Kirk Franklin, making her the artist with the most No. 1s on this chart since its inception in March 2005.
The chart-topping event was marked by a significant 6% increase in plays during the week of September 6-12, according to Luminate.
Co-authored by Mann herself, along with Phillip Bryant and Tameka Mintze, “Working for Me” follows a series of consecutive hits. Her previous No. 1 singles include Finished, He Did It, Help Me, and Touch Me. This streak also matches Tasha Cobbs Leonard for the most consecutive Gospel Airplay chart-toppers among women.
In addition to her success on the Gospel Airplay chart, Tamela Mann’s achievements highlight an inspiring journey in the music industry.
She expresses immense gratitude for the platform to share her music and God’s message with a global audience. Concurrently, CeCe Winans’ “That’s My King” continues to rule the Hot Gospel Songs chart for its 20th week, further illustrating the impact of gospel music on listeners worldwide.
