SHAB is having one impressive 2026 – an array of fresh new dance-pop hits, fearless advocacy for women’s rights and freedom in her home country of Iran, and even an exclusive surprise performance at Coachella’s glamorous LA Magazine party. Now, she’s raising the bar and accelerating into the mainstream as her soulful duet alongside Preston Harris, “It’s On You,” has hit #26 on the current Billboard Dance/Mix Show Chart.
Showcasing her growing pop appeal in the US and her rapidly rising stardom, SHAB’s most infectious and seductive hit yet is positioned proudly between two of arguably the biggest hits of the year – Bruno Mars’ funky return, “I Just Might,” and that PinkPantheress and Zara Larsson collaboration, “Stateside.” It’s certainly great company to be in, and a sign she could be as big as the names she’s placed alongside, including another long-lasting chart smash, Raye’s “Where’s My Husband.”
It’s no wonder the duet is making significant waves: a fusion between the rising pop star and EDM standout Preston Harris (known for working alongside cultural giants like Kendrick Lamar on To Pimp a Butterfly) was destined for success. But few anticipated something so hypnotic – the Afrohouse smash pulls you into the racing pulse of a nightclub, yet leaves an air of emotional surrender through its velvety vocal unison.
SHAB and Harris’ intimate delivery moves like a conversation, sweeping powerfully over alluring, magnetic rhythms and sultry synths – making this a hit that makes you move, and moves you, sure to linger in your mind long after your first listen. And it’s clear it’s having this exact impact on listeners across the US and beyond.
Already a glowing chart presence, SHAB has made her mark on the ever-evolving pop scene over the years – from her sensuous hit “Lipstick,” which scored on the U.S. Pop Radio Top 40 Chart, to the dance number “Skin & Bones,” which held its place for weeks on the Billboard Top 40 Dance Chart.
But with this release, she steps fully into her power and shows she’s just as captivating in a collaboration as she is on her own terms – and we can’t wait to see what lies ahead.
