The track, originally featured on her critically acclaimed 2016 album Anti, debuts at No. 139 on the worldwide chart, which ranks songs based on combined streaming and sales data from dozens of countries. The milestone comes as Anti marks its 10th anniversary, reigniting attention around one of Rihanna’s most celebrated projects.
Despite its late entry onto the global ranking—introduced only in 2020—“Kiss It Better” is now among Rihanna’s growing list of charting tracks on the tally, bringing her total appearances to 19. The song’s debut performance matches that of Run This Town, her collaboration with Jay-Z and Kanye West, which also peaked at No. 139.
The resurgence of interest in “Kiss It Better” extends beyond global rankings. The single has also re-entered the R&B Streaming Songs chart in the United States, landing at No. 15. It previously peaked at No. 8 and remains one of Rihanna’s notable R&B hits.
Meanwhile, other songs from the singer’s catalogue are also gaining traction internationally. Don't Stop the Music has climbed to a new peak on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S., rising to No. 184. Popular hits including We Found Love, featuring Calvin Harris, and Only Girl (In the World) have also reappeared across both global rankings.
Another Anti standout, Love on the Brain, remains in circulation as well, though it slipped to No. 158 on the Global 200 this week.
The renewed chart activity underscores Rihanna’s enduring global appeal, even as fans continue to await a follow-up to Anti—her last full-length studio album.
