“Forever” takes the penthouse from Olivia Dean’s “Man I Need,” which falls to No. 4 after a two-week reign. Between the former and present champ, Tone Stith’s “Fly” darts 7-2 to mount a challenge for the throne, while Kehlani’s former leader “Folded,” which ruled for two weeks in February-March, slips 2-3.
Before “Forever,” the Houston-based quartet led the Adult R&B Airplay ranking with “Only Human.” Their reimagining of the 1990 Jeffrey Osborne hit topped the list for one week in August 2025. While Osborne’s original predates the Adult R&B Airplay chart, which launched in September 1993, it reached No. 3 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart in January 1991.
“Forever” required an extensive journey to the top spot, reaching the apex in its 30th week on the chart. It thus becomes only one of 13 songs in the 32-year history of Adult R&B Airplay to need at least that much time to reach No. 1, joining, among others, “Only Human,” which completed a 34-week march to the summit. The record overall remains with Snoh Aalegra’s “I Want You Around,” at 41 weeks.
Elsewhere, “Forever” climbs 27-26 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart, which ranks songs by combined audience totals from adult R&B and mainstream R&B/hip-hop radio stations. There, it improved to 3.5 million in audience, up 7% from the prior week’s total.
