Houston R&B group lands its third consecutive #1 with “Don’t Mind,” edging out Beyoncé as its independent chart run continues.
HOUSTON, CA, UNITED STATES, September 29, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Houston R&B powerhouse Sentury has reached another major career milestone, taking the #1 spot on both the Billboard Adult R&B Airplay and Mediabase Adult R&B charts with their latest single, “Don’t Mind,” which now sits ahead of Beyoncé on the chart. The achievement marks Sentury’s third consecutive #1 hit, following chart-topping singles “Only Human” and “Forever,” and further extends the Houston group’s remarkable independent run in contemporary R&B. “Don’t Mind” continues to make a significant impact at radio, generating more than 50 million audience impressions to date.
The latest chart-topper continues the romantic storyline introduced with “Forever.” While “Forever” captures the promise of lasting love, “Don’t Mind” moves the story forward, following a couple as they look toward marriage, commitment and building a future together.
For Sentury, the win is proof that an independent R&B group can compete at the highest level of the format. Operating through Gateway Records, the group has built its audience through the music, radio support, live performances and a direct connection with fans. Leo, CJ, AJ and Rico have developed a signature sound built on rich four-part harmonies, sophisticated presentation and authentic stories about love, relationships and commitment, a style they proudly call “grown man R&B.”With 10 Billboard-charting songs, three consecutive #1 records and recognition from outlets and platforms including Billboard, Rated R&B, ThisisRNB, Great Day Houston, Amazon Music and Pandora, Sentury continues to build its presence as an independent force in modern R&B. The group is already preparing for its next chapter, with upcoming releases and collaborations featuring R&B legends Jagged Edge and hip-hop icon Rick Ross.

About Sentury:
With roots deep in Houston, TX, R&B powerhouse Sentury is carrying the torch for the golden era of R&B. Their music nods to the legacy of classic groups, pairing rich layered harmonies and heartfelt storytelling with a sleek modern edge. Together, Leo, CJ, AJ and Rico deliver what they proudly call “grown man R&B.”
Sentury’s origins trace back to church, where the members found one another as teens singing at services and fellowships. The group began in 2011 with a tight musical bond between Leo, AJ and Rico, but they knew they needed a special fourth voice to complete the sound. When they discovered CJ’s enormous talent, they wasted no time. After getting a seal of approval from CJ’s mother, Sentury was born.
Sentury’s style is silk in motion: rich harmonies, vintage cool and unapologetic soul, draped in smooth suits and dimly lit desire. Blending velvety vocals, swaying basslines and live instrumentation, their sound is seductive yet understated, emotional yet resilient, and classic while still fresh.Initially signed to a major label, the group chose to go independent when Leo founded his own record label, Gateway Records, giving Sentury full creative and promotional control and fueling their success. Their 2025 single “Only Human,” a fresh but faithful reimagining of the Jeffrey Osborne classic, climbed to #1 on Billboard’s Adult R&B Airplay chart and earned praise from industry legends, including the original hitmakers themselves. The follow-up, “Forever,” also released in 2025, reached #1 as well, giving the group back-to-back chart-toppers, a milestone few artists ever reach. An emotionally charged celebration of enduring love, devotion and commitment, “Forever” uses lush harmonies and melodies to capture the feeling of finding someone who brings pure joy and completes your world. Now in 2026, “Don’t Mind” picks up the story, with Leo describing it as “a follow-up to the love story in ‘Forever.’ The couple is planning their wedding and life together.”
In an era of disposable dating, Sentury stands for something deeper: genuine romance, real connection and music with meaning. They aren’t just reviving R&B; they’re redefining it for a generation craving authenticity, proving that true soul never goes out of style.
