“Pink Pony Club” earned 38.1 million in airplay audience, 15.1 million streams, and 6,000 sold during its latest week on the Billboard Hot 100, rising from No. 9 to No. 5. It thus became Roan’s first song from The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess to enter the top five and third overall, after “Good Luck, Babe!” and “The Giver”.

“Pink Pony Club” was initially released in 2020, and later made its way to Roan’s debut album The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess from 2023. It became a sleeper hit in the wake of Roan’s rising popularity, especially after she delivered memorable performances during her appearances on Saturday Night Live and the 2025 Grammy Awards.

As for the rest of the Billboard Hot 100 for this week, Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s “Luther” returned to the top spot for its sixth total and consecutive week. It’s followed by Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ “Die With a Smile” at No. 2, Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” at No. 3, and Morgan Wallen’s “Just in Case” debuting at No. 4.

Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars dropped “Die With a Smile” back in August and released several different versions in an attempt to help it reach No. 1. After facing tough competition, especially during the holiday season, they spent four consecutive weeks at the runner-up spot before climbing to No. 1.

“Die With a Smile” accumulated 59.7 million radio airplay audience impressions, 27.1 million official streams, and 6,000 in sales during its latest week on the chart. It’s Mars’ ninth song to Hit No. 1 and Gaga’s sixth, helping her become the third artist to achieve multiple No. 1s in three different decades following Janet Jackson and Michael Jackson.

Before finally climbing to No. 1 in the US, “Die With a Smile” found enormous success worldwide. It spent eight weeks atop the Billboard Global 200 chart, becoming the second longest-reigning song of 2024 behind another Mars collaboration, “Apt.” with Rosé. It’s currently in the running for two Grammy Awards – song of the year and best pop duo/group performance.

Holiday songs occupy nine out of ten spots in the top ten on the Hot 100 chart this week, with “Die with a Smile” by Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars being the only exception. Mariah Carey returned to No. 1 with “All I Want for Christmas Is You” for its 17th week on top, which set a new record for the longest-running chart-topping single of her career.

This week also marked the arrival of two modern holiday hits to the top ten on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Ariana Grande hit No. 9 with “Santa Tell Me”, over a decade after it was released as a bonus track on her holiday EP Christmas Kisses. She’s followed by Kelly Clarkson, who made it to No. 10 with “Underneath the Tree”, her first song to soar this high since “Piece by Piece” hit No. 8 in 2016.

These are the only holiday songs released during the 21st century to enter the top ten on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The record for the most recently released seasonal song to reach the top ten had previously been held by Kenny G’s take on “Auld Lang Syne,” released in 1999.

“All I Want For Christmas” was released all the way back in 1994, as a part of Carey’s holiday album Merry Christmas, and it’s still ruling the charts three decades later. It experienced a true boom in the streaming era and topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart for the first time in 2019 before returning to the top every holiday season since.

This marks the 15th week that “All I Want For Christmas” spent atop the Hot 100 chart, and it made history as the first song to top the Hot 100 in six distinct years. It also helped Carey place at No. 1 in a record-extending 20 distinct years, in addition to extending her record for most weeks at No. 1 to 94.

“All I Want For Christmas” isn’t the only holiday classic to make it to the top ten on the Hot 100 chart this week. Holiday songs occupied half of the top ten, with Brenda Lee’s “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” and Wham!’s “Last Christmas” coming right behind Carey.

“A Bar Song (Tipsy)” totaled 70.7 million radio airplay audience impressions, 21.2 million official streams, and 5,000 copies sold during its latest week on the chart, easily snagging the No. 1 spot. Even before this week came around, Shaboozey had the longest-running number-one song of the year, and he’s not done breaking records.

With 17 weeks spent atop the Billboard Hot 100 chart, “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” is the longest-running No. 1 single by a solo artist, surpassing Morgan Wallen’s “Last Night”. The all-time record is still held by Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road” ft. Billy Ray Cyrus, which spent 19 weeks at No. 1 in 2019.

“A Bar Song (Tipsy)” was released as a single from Shaboozey’s latest studio album Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going, and it helped him break into the mainstream. He received five nominations at this year’s Grammy Awards, including best new artist, plus song of the year, best country song, and best country solo performance with his breakout hit.

“A Bar Song (Tipsy)” was released back in April, as one of the singles from his album Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going. It’s been steadily climbing up the chart for almost two months and went platinum in the US with 2,000,000 certified units.

After sitting in the top ten for a week and peaking at No. 2, “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” finally reached new heights during its latest week on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It soared to No. 1 with 60 million radio airplay audience impressions, 44.8 million official streams, and 23,000 copies sold.

“A Bar Song (Tipsy)” is Shaboozey’s first song to ever hit No. 1, and this is just one of many firsts. It’s also the first song to ever go to the top ten on all four Billboard radio charts: Country Airplay, Pop Airplay, Adult Pop Airplay, and Rhythmic Airplay, reaching crossover success. Shaboozey is also the first male Black artist to top the Billboard Hot 100 and Hot Country Songs chart, and second overall to achieve this feat following Beyoncé with “Texas Hold ‘Em”.

Carpenter scored her best streaming week for a song with 50.9 million official streams, but 3.2 million radio airplay audience impressions and 7,000 sold copies also helped “Please Please Please” rise to No. 1. It also topped Billboard’s Streaming Songs chart for its second week in a row.

The success of “Please Please Please” can be credited to several versions that Carpenter released to help it rise through the ranks. The original song hit the shelves on June 6, and it was quickly followed by acoustic, a cappella, instrumental, sped-up, and slowed-down versions.

“Please Please Please” replaces Post Malone’s “I Had Some Help” ft. Morgan Wallen at No. 1, while the rest of the top five includes Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” at No. 3, Carpenter’s own “Espresso” at No. 4, and Tommy Richman’s “Million Dollar Baby” at No. 5.

“Please Please Please” will be featured on Carpenter’s upcoming album Short n’ Sweet, set to be released via Island Records on August 23.

Despite losing the No. 1 spot to Post Malone and Morgan Wallen’ “I Had Some Help”, Carpenter did pretty great on the Billboard Hot 100 chart this week. Her latest single “Please Please Please” debuted at No. 2, becoming her highest-charting song to date.

It opens with 50.3 million streams, 533,000 in airplay audience, and 7,000 in sales during its first week on the chart after hitting the shelves on July 7, along with the music video starring Carpenter’s boyfriend, Saltburn star Barry Keoghan.

To make the whole thing even better, Carpenter also hit No. 3 with “Espresso”, which drew 47.7 million in radio reach, 38.4 million streams, and 28,000 in digital and physical sales during its latest week on the chart. This makes Carpenter the first soloist and the second act overall alongside The Beatless to place two initial top-three hits with no other billed artists.

“Espresso” and “Please Please Please” serve as the first two singles from her upcoming album Short n’ Sweet, set to be released on August 23.

“Nasty” was released on April 12, ahead of Tinashe’s performance at Coachella. It didn’t take it long to go viral, and its lyrics inspired the viral “match my freak” meme, in addition to over 300,000 videos on TikTok.

Almost two months later, “Nasty” finally entered the Billboard Hot 100 chart at No. 90. It’s Tinashe’s first solo song to do so and fifth overall, while her debut single “2 On” ft. ScHoolboy Q remains her highest-charting song at No. 24.

Tinashe discussed the viral success of “Nasty” in a recent interview with Time and said it feels good to see her hard work finally pay off after all these years, especially as an independent artist.

“Having this social media push is really big for an artist like me because I’m not on a major label, and I don’t have the same level of exposure to playlists, to radio, to these other things… All it will take is one viral moment that gets the conversation going,” she told Time.

With 76.4 million official streams, 31.1 million radio airplay audience impressions, and 69,000 sold during its first week on the Hot 100 chart, “I Had Some Help” easily hit No. 1. It also debuted atop the Hot Country Songs and Global 200 chart.

“I Had Some Help” marks Post Malone’s second No. 1 hit this year, joining the Taylor Swift collaboration “Fortnight”. He also topped the Hot 100 chart with “Rockstar” feat. 21 Savage, “Psycho,” feat. Ty Dolla $ign, “Sunflower” feat. Swae Lee, and the solo single “Circles”.

In addition to being Post Malone’s sixth No. 1 single in the US, “I Had Some Help” is also Wallen’s second song to soar to the top. He previously spent 16 non-consecutive weeks atop the Billboard Hot 100 chart with “Last Night”.

“I Had Some Help” replaced Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” atop the Hot 100 chart, which dipped to No. 2 this week. Tommy Richman’s “Million Dollar Baby”, Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)”, and Benson Boone’s “Beautiful Things” also made it to the top five.
