Idahams made a jump from number two last week to end up in the top spot this week, replacing Niko B’s viral hit “Who’s That What’s That” (WEAREBLK/ Ministry of Sound) while Rema made a jump from number 16 to number nine.
“Ada” is the lead single off Idahams’ 2020 seven-song extended play, Man On Fire, which crossed one million Audiomack streams less than three weeks after its release. The project has received more than 3.5 million streams across platforms since coming out in June.
Originally released as a single, “Woman” was re-released as part of Rema Compilation, a syndicated collection of loosies and singles from previous projects.
