Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” hoists a ninth nonconsecutive week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, extending 2024’s longest rule. The hit became the singer-songwriter’s first leader on the chart in July.
“A Bar Song (Tipsy)” likewise furthers the longest domination this year on the multimetric Hot Country Songs chart, adding a 13th week at No. 1.
Meanwhile, Sabrina Carpenter logs three songs in the Hot 100’s top five for a second consecutive week, as “Espresso” returns to its No. 3 best, from No. 4; “Please Please Please” dips 3-4, after it became her first No. 1 in June; and “Taste” falls 2-5 in its second week.
Notably, as Carpenter’s three songs mark her first three top five Hot 100 hits, she becomes only the second act – and first soloist – ever to chart three initial top five hits in the region simultaneously in multiple weeks. She joins only The Beatles, who first achieved such a triple over five weeks in 1964, with “I Want to Hold Your Hand,” “She Loves You” and “Please Please Me.” (No other act has charted three first top five hits in the region simultaneously for even one week.)
The Hot 100 blends all-genre U.S. streaming (official audio and official video), radio airplay and sales data, the lattermost metric reflecting purchases of physical singles and digital tracks from full-service digital music retailers; digital singles sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites are excluded from chart calculations. All charts (dated Sept. 14, 2024) will update on Billboard.com Tuesday, Sept. 10.

Sabrina Carpenter charts three songs in the Hot 100’s top five, all from her new album, Short n’ Sweet, for a second consecutive week: “Espresso” returns to its No. 3 high, from No. 4; former leader “Please Please Please” backtracks 3-4; and “Taste” drops 2-5 in its second week.
As the tracks mark Carpenter’s first three top five Hot 100 hits, she becomes only the second act – and first soloist – ever to chart three initial top five hits in the region simultaneously for multiple weeks. The Beatles are the only other act to achieve the feat even once, having done so over five weeks in 1964.
Here’s a recap of Carpenter’s two weeks earning the honor and each week in which The Beatles charted their first three or more top five Hot 100 hits in the top five simultaneously.

March 28, 1964: No. 1, “She Loves You” / No. 2, “I Want To Hold Your Hand” / No. 3, “Twist and Shout” / No. 4, “Please Please Me”
April 4, 1964: No. 1, “Can’t Buy Me Love” / No. 2, “Twist and Shout” / No. 3, “She Loves You” / No. 4, “I Want To Hold Your Hand” / No. 5, “Please Please Me”
