October London‘s newest focus track, “She Keeps Calling,” has landed on Billboard.
The electro-funk groove debuts at No. 22 on the Adult R&B Airplay chart, led by Tyrese’s “Wildflower.”
“She Keeps Calling” is London’s third solo appearance and fourth overall on this airplay chart, making it his third entry of 2024.
Here’s a listing of October London’s entries:
- “Back to Your Place,” No. 1 for 10 weeks (2023)
- “Mulholland Drive,” No. 1 for two weeks (2024)
- “All I Want Is You,” with Boney James, No. 8 so far (2024)
- “She Keeps Calling,” No. 22 so far (2024)
As outlined above, London has had two singles to reach the top of the Adult R&B chart. His first hit, “Back to Your Place,” is from his debut album, The Rebirth of Marvin, released in 2023.
London’s second chart-topping single, “Mulholland Drive,” featuring Snoop Dogg & LaToiya Williams, is also featured on the same album.
Additionally, London has a top 10 entry with jazz musician Boney James on the track “All I Want Is You,” which appears on James’ album, Slow Burn. The song also appears on London’s second album (more on that later).
Elsewhere on Billboard, “She Keeps Calling” is No. 28 in its fifth week on the R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart.
Additionally, the Soopafly-produced track is No. 29 on the Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart in its fourth week.
Released on Aug. 30, “She Keeps Calling” jump-started London’s new era for his sophomore album, October Nights. The project came out on Oct. 11 via Death Row Records/gamma.
London said at the time, “My new single ‘She Keeps Calling’ was co-written by me and my boy Mike Letter. This has to be one of my favorite songs off my upcoming album!”
He added, “I wrote this song for all the times anyone has had a woman hit their line and eventually those calls build up and have you come back for more than you anticipated.”
October Nights is the follow-up to London’s first full-length album, The Rebirth of Marvin. Leading up to its release, London also put out the single “A Beautiful Woman.”
In addition to Boney James, October Nights includes features from Tyrese, Ledisi and Snoop Dogg.
In an interview with Rated R&B, London expressed his hopes for what fans would take away from October Nights.
“I hope they take away that I finally can put the Marvin thing to rest,” said London. “I’m happy that I’m compared to someone so great, but I hope they take away that I’m more than those inflections of Marvin. Let’s get somewhere else. Let’s take another trip. You’re on this rollercoaster ride. We did that first dip. Now, this is the twist and turn into something else.”
In late October, London concluded his supporting act role with Maxwell on The Serenade Tour alongside Jazmine Sullivan. He will return to the road in January 2025 to begin a series of shows across the U.K. and Europe.
