Peruzzi, Zlatan and Shoday’s INFERNO Debuts at No. 2 on UK Afrobeats Chart

Peruzzi, Zlatan and Shoday’s INFERNO entered the UK’s Official Afrobeats Chart at No. 2 for November 8-14, adding a UK result to its Nigeria platform run.

Peruzzi, Zlatan and Shoday’s “INFERNO” debuted at No. 2 on the UK’s Official Afrobeats Chart for November 8-14, 2026. The Official Charts Company marks the single as a new entry, with Blaqbonez and Asake’s “IKEBE 3000” above it at No. 1.

For a Nigerian release team, this is a new market signal beyond the song’s domestic platform run. A position on the UK chart reflects the Official Charts Company’s seven-day measure of Afrobeats sales and streams there. It cannot be converted into a Nigerian stream total or a global audience figure, but it gives the collaboration a dated result in a second market.

What the UK chart shows

The chart dated November 8-14 lists “INFERNO” at No. 2 with one week on the ranking. The Official Charts Company’s individual track page also identifies November 14 as its first chart date and No. 2 as its peak so far. Nigerian outlet HypeTribe also reported the debut on November 9 after checking the published ranking. These are confirmations of the same chart result, not separate audience measurements.

“IKEBE 3000” remains at No. 1 for a fifth chart week, according to that UK list, while Ayra Starr and ZAYN’s “HEAVEN BABY” is No. 3. BNXN’s “If You Like” rises from No. 8 to No. 4. The order makes “INFERNO” the highest new entry in the chart’s top four. It does not establish the number of UK plays or sales behind any of those positions: the public ranking displays places and weeks, rather than a consumption total for each title.

A different clock from the Nigeria charts

“INFERNO” was released on October 29, as the release metadata on Chartex and our Spotify Nigeria debut report record. The November 7 Spotify Nigeria daily chart still had the song at No. 1, with 416,129 streams displayed by Kworb and a rounded 416.1K on Chartex. That is a single-day, single-service result in Nigeria. The UK Afrobeats rank covers a week and a different country, so neither figure should be used to calculate the other.

Our earlier cross-platform report also explained why a song could lead current Spotify and Apple Music lists while the most recent TurnTable Official Nigeria Top 100 covered only its release day. The UK debut now adds a separate development, not a replacement for TurnTable’s Nigerian measure. Release teams following the record should watch the next full TurnTable week and the next UK Afrobeats ranking before drawing a conclusion about staying power.

The verifiable milestone today is narrow and useful: a new No. 2 UK Official Afrobeats entry for a collaboration already leading Spotify’s Nigeria daily chart. Its public label and chart credits do not disclose the performers’ contract terms, rights shares or income from either market.
