YouTube published its weekly music chart data for the seven-day period ending June 18, 2026, covering 15 territories, the Global Top Artists chart, the Global Top Shorts Songs chart, and the Global Top Music Videos chart. Two developments dominate the data. "Dai Dai" by Shakira and Burna Boy retained the global number one position on its fifth consecutive week on the chart, accumulating 73,770,487 views — a figure that places it among the highest weekly totals recorded since PPC Land began tracking this data in late 2025. And "Life Goes On" by Oliver Tree entered the Global Weekly Top Songs chart at number three in its 14th week on the chart with 36,646,856 views, while "Miss You," his 2022 collaboration with Robin Schulz, re-entered at number eleven with 22,281,732 views. Tree died on June 14, 2026, in a helicopter collision over Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, at the age of 32.

The chart data, published by YouTube, covers consumption across the YouTube platform and YouTube Music. It represents the first weekly measurement period to fully capture the audience response to Tree's death, which occurred on the fourth day of the tracking window.

"Dai Dai" consolidates and grows

"Dai Dai" accumulated 73,770,487 views globally for the period ending June 18 — up from 44,129,627 views in its debut week ending May 28, 2026, the week it first reached number one. That initial debut saw the track climb from position 66 to number one in a single week, at the time the steepest single-week chart climb covered by this publication. Its trajectory since then has moved in the opposite direction to most high-profile debut performances: views have risen rather than fallen into the second and third weeks.

The week ending June 18 falls one week after the FIFA World Cup 2026 kicked off on June 11 across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Shakira's "Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)," the official anthem of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, remained in the global chart at number two for its 53rd week on the chart, generating 39,858,654 views. That figure is itself striking: a track released in 2010 generating nearly 40 million views in a single week in mid-2026 illustrates what tournament context does to catalog consumption on a platform that functions as a searchable archive rather than a release-driven feed.

The KPop Demon Hunters Cast track "Golden" fell to number four globally with 32,521,519 views in its 52nd week — still holding from a position that has sat near the top of the global chart since late 2025. "ICONIC BY MISTAKE," a new collaboration between LE SSERAFIM, ILLIT, and KATSEYE, debuted at global number five in its first week with 32,378,542 views. The track's debut view count is nearly as large as "Golden's" current weekly total — though "Golden" has now held its top-five position for over a year.

India-rooted tracks continue to dominate the mid-table of the global chart. "Shararat" by Shashwat Sachdev, Madhubanti Bagchi, and Jasmine Sandlas sits at sixth with 28,419,261 views in its 27th week. "Billie Jean" by Michael Jackson, which began a sustained multi-territory surge in late April, placed seventh with 24,596,705 views in its 33rd week on the chart. "Bairan" by Banjaare is eighth, "Gehra Hua" by Shashwat Sachdev and Arijit Singh ninth with 23,655,807 views in week 29, and "Beat It" by Michael Jackson tenth with 23,283,895 views in its eighth week.

Oliver Tree's posthumous surge

Oliver Tree Nickell died on June 14, 2026, when two helicopters collided mid-air over Rio de Janeiro. He was 32. Tree had been in Brazil as part of his "Love You Madly, Hate You Badly" world tour, which commenced May 30 in Mexico City in support of his fourth studio album released April 24, 2026. The album was his first release as an independent artist, having left Atlantic Records after a career that began in 2017.

"Life Goes On," a 2021 single from the deluxe edition of his debut album "Ugly Is Beautiful," entered the global chart at number three this week. The track had already been on the chart for 14 weeks before the week ending June 18, meaning it was not a new release but one already in circulation. Its position at third, above tracks from Shashwat Sachdev with vastly larger weekly Indian bases, reflects the scale of the post-death consumption response concentrated in a short window. In the United States, "Life Goes On" entered directly at number three with 5,341,849 views. "Miss You," the 2022 Schulz collaboration, entered at number nine in the US with 3,662,949 views. Both are posthumous catalog entries, not new material.

The chart data does not disaggregate the cause of individual consumption spikes. What it records is the number of views within the seven-day window. In Tree's case, the trajectory is unusual because both a 2021 and a 2022 track entered or significantly climbed multiple charts simultaneously in multiple territories — the hallmark pattern of death-driven catalog consumption, documented previously in the context of Michael Jackson's surge in the weeks covered by this publication in late April 2026.

"NO BATIDÃO" and the Shorts chart

"PASSO BEM SOLTO (Slowed)" by ATLXS retained the Global Weekly Top Shorts Songs number one for its 65th week, with no view count reported in the chart file. "NO BATIDÃO" by ZXKAI and slxughter, the Brazilian phonk track that held the global songs chart number one for most of early 2026 before "Dai Dai" displaced it in late May, remained at fifth on the Shorts chart in its 33rd week. It no longer appears in the top 10 of the global songs chart; its current presence in the Shorts chart illustrates the lag structure between Shorts chart positioning and main chart performance.

"Headlights (feat. KIDDO)" by Alok and Alan Walker rose to second on the Shorts chart in its 13th week, up from sixth. "Bairan" by Banjaare held third. "Copines" by Aya Nakamura fell from second to fourth in its ninth week. "Sou Favela" by Mc Bruninho and MC Vitinho Ferrari placed sixth. "Brasil" by M4IA climbed to eighth and "Udi Udi" by Aneesh, SARKAR, and Hruday moved to ninth from 13th. "Raga of Revenge" by Anirudh Ravichander held tenth. "Dai Dai" appeared at number eleven on the Shorts chart in its second week there — a contrast with its main chart dominance that is structurally significant. The track's five-week global number one has been driven almost entirely by long-form video consumption, not by Shorts creator adoption.

Shakira climbed from eighth to fifth with 212,958,365 views and 0.24% growth — her first top-five placement since this publication has been tracking the chart, driven by the combined performance of "Dai Dai" and "Waka Waka." Michael Jackson remained at sixth with 210,238,453 views in week 539. Bad Bunny held seventh with 185,654,679 views. Fuerza Regida placed ninth, Sonu Nigam tenth.

Brazil — week ending June 18, 2026

Brazil's chart shows minimal overlap with global trends, a pattern that has been consistent across every week covered by this publication. "Peão Todo Tatuado" by Jeninho and Mariana Fagundes held number one with 7,814,661 views in its 12th week, reversing positions with "Diário de um Cafajeste," which fell to second with 7,165,264 views in week 32. "Carnívoro" held third, "Famoso Ímã | O poderoso chatão" held fourth, and "Reliquia do 2T" climbed to fifth. Oliver Tree's "Life Goes On" entered the Brazilian chart at sixth with 4,360,127 views — a notable cross-over given Brazil's typically self-contained chart ecosystem. "Dai Dai" entered at ninth with 3,579,061 views in week 4. The track's presence in Brazil is driven partly by the FIFA World Cup, which opened June 11 with North America as host, generating significant South American viewership of World Cup content.

India — week ending June 18, 2026

India's chart remains entirely separate from the global commercial trends visible in Western markets. "Shararat" by Shashwat Sachdev, Madhubanti Bagchi, and Jasmine Sandlas held number one with 24,401,552 views in its 28th week. "Bairan" by Banjaare held second with 20,659,813 views in week 15. "Gehra Hua" placed third with 20,568,933 views, "Jaiye Sajana" fourth, and "Sheesha (Aakhya Mai Aakh Ghali Jo Bairan)" by Mitta Ror and Swara Verma fifth with 16,354,353 views in week 21. "Hellallallo" placed sixth in its fourth week. "Fortuner" by Raj Mawar and Mukesh Fauji Ruchika Jangid held seventh with 10,662,407 views, "Chunnari Chunnari" entered at eighth in its 43rd week, "Pavazha Malli (Unplugged)" ninth, and "Bangles" by Sanju Rathod and G - SPXRK tenth with 10,067,372 views in week 9. Neither "Dai Dai" nor any Oliver Tree title appears in India's top 10.

What this means for the marketing community

The week ending June 18, 2026 illustrates two mechanisms that operate simultaneously on YouTube but draw on entirely different demand sources. The first is event-driven consumption: "Dai Dai's" continued growth into its fifth week, reaching 73.7 million views, is inseparable from the FIFA World Cup that opened June 11. The track's presence in the top 10 of 11 of the 15 territories covered — and at number one in the US, UK, Australia, Germany, Spain, the Netherlands, and Portugal — represents the kind of cross-territory dominance that a major sporting event with a purpose-built anthem can produce. The music video features Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappé, Vinícius Júnior, Harry Kane, and Luis Díaz, distributed through Sony Music Latin and Ace Entertainment under major-label infrastructure. That combination — event, celebrity, major label, music video format — produced results measurable in individual territory charts.

The second mechanism is death-driven catalog consumption. Oliver Tree's "Life Goes On" and "Miss You" entered or climbed multiple charts within the first tracking period following his June 14 death. The pattern is structurally familiar from Michael Jackson's multi-territory surge documented in late April 2026: an external event triggers audience search behavior, which YouTube's platform architecture surfaces through catalog discovery in ways that differ from radio or playlist-based consumption. For media buyers, the question is whether catalog inventory around grieving events represents a contextually appropriate placement environment, and what brand safety signals the platform's tools provide for those circumstances.

YouTube's separation from Billboard chart data in January 2026 means these weekly data releases now represent the primary measurement infrastructure for understanding what YouTube audiences are actually consuming. There is no cross-reference point with Billboard's methodology. The charts measure views — including replays, short viewing sessions, and background play — not equivalent to a radio spin or a full stream completion. Understanding what that view count represents technically matters for planning decisions.

The Shorts chart tells a different story. "Dai Dai," despite its dominance on the main songs chart, sits at only eleventh on the Shorts chart in just its second week there. Its chart run has been built almost entirely on music video consumption rather than Shorts creator adoption — the inverse of how NO BATIDÃO sustained its global #1 position through early 2026. Whether Shorts adoption follows in the coming weeks, or the track's trajectory depends entirely on long-form video performance tied to the World Cup's duration, will be visible in subsequent weekly releases.

Summary

Who: YouTube, the video platform, published weekly music chart data for the seven-day period ending June 18, 2026. The primary chart subjects include Shakira and Burna Boy ("Dai Dai"), Oliver Tree ("Life Goes On" and "Miss You"), LE SSERAFIM, ILLIT, and KATSEYE ("ICONIC BY MISTAKE"), Michael Jackson (catalog entries across multiple territories), Kenshi Yonezu (Japan), Feza (South Africa), and Ari Lesmana with eńau (Indonesia). The Global Top Artists chart is led by Alka Yagnik with 437,551,861 views.

What: "Dai Dai" by Shakira and Burna Boy held the YouTube Global Weekly Top Songs number one for a fifth consecutive week with 73,770,487 views. Oliver Tree's "Life Goes On" entered the global chart at number three with 36,646,856 views in the first chart period following Tree's death on June 14. "ICONIC BY MISTAKE" debuted at number one in the United States with 5,943,699 views. The Shorts chart continued to be led by "PASSO BEM SOLTO (Slowed)" by ATLXS in its 65th week.

When: The chart data covers the seven-day period ending June 18, 2026. Oliver Tree died on June 14, 2026 — the fourth day of the tracking window. The FIFA World Cup 2026 opened on June 11. YouTube published the data during the week of June 27, 2026.

Where: The charts cover 15 territories: Global, United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Brazil, India, Japan, Germany, France, Spain, Kenya, South Africa, Netherlands, Portugal, and Indonesia, plus the Global Top Artists chart, Global Top Shorts Songs chart, and Global Top Music Videos chart. Oliver Tree's death occurred in Rio de Janeiro. The FIFA World Cup 2026 is hosted across the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

Why: The data matters because it captures two simultaneous catalog consumption events driven by external triggers — a sporting event and a musician's death — whose combined effect on chart positions illustrates how YouTube's platform architecture responds to demand that originates outside the music industry's normal promotional cycle. For advertising and media planning, the week's chart structure shows how different types of events produce different geographic footprints: the World Cup anthem performs widely across Europe, North America, and Latin America, while Oliver Tree's posthumous catalog resurgence is concentrated in English-language and Western European markets. India, Japan, South Africa, Kenya, and Indonesia show no Oliver Tree entries in their top 10s.
