Kendrick Lamar & SZA Lead Hot 100 for Ninth Week, Teddy Swims Makes History in Top 10

Following the April 11 premiere of its official video, “Luther,” on pgLang/Interscope/ICLG, totaled 67.5 million radio airplay audience impressions (up 7% week-over-week), 25 million official streams (up 10%) and 2,000 sold (up 7%) in the U.S. April 11-17.

“Luther” rebounds two spots for a seventh week atop the Streaming Songs chart; leads Radio Songs for a third week and rises three places to No. 20, after reaching No. 4, on Digital Song Sales.

“Luther” concurrently claims a 17th week at No. 1 on both the multimetric Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Rap Songs charts.

Chappell Roan’s “Pink Pony Club” clip-clops a spot to No. 4 on the Hot 100, led by 2% gain to 45.2 million in audience. It tops the Pop Airplay chart for a third week.

The singer-songwriter matches her best Hot 100 rank, first set by “Good Luck Babe!,” which hit No. 4 last September. Her three top 10s have all reached the top five; “The Giver” debuted at its No. 5 peak in March.

A week after “Ordinary” became Alex Warren’s first Hot 100 top 10, the song becomes his first top five hit, lifting 7-5. It surged by 60% to 13.2 million in airplay audience in the tracking week.

The single also lifts 3-1 to become Warren’s first leader on Digital Song Sales (6,000 sold, up 3%).

Teddy Swims’ “Lose Control,” which led the Hot 100 for a week in March 2024, and became the year’s No. 1 song, rebounds 8-7, as it tallies a record-breaking 58th week in the top 10, surpassing the run in the region of The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights” for the most such frames in the chart’s 66-year history. “Lose Control” first set up shop in the top 10 on the list dated Jan. 20, 2024, and has been absent from the tier for only eight weeks since.

Notably, longevity in the weekly top 10 translates to success on the annual year-end Hot 100. Along with “Lose Control” leading for 2024, “Last Night” (2023), “Heat Waves” (2022), “Levitating” (2021) and “Blinding Lights” (2020) also each finished first on its respective year-end ranking this decade.

“Lose Control” notches an 87th week on the Hot 100 overall, tying Imagine Dragons’ “Radioactive,” in 2012-14, for the third-longest stay in the chart’s history. They trail only “Heat Waves” (91 weeks, in 2021-22) and “Blinding Lights” (90, in 2019-22).

Elsewhere in the Hot 100’s top 10, Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ “Die With a Smile” ascends 3-2, following five nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 beginning in January. The song swaps spots with Drake’s “Nokia,” down a spot from its No. 2 high.

Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” drops 4-6 on the Hot 100, following its record-tying 19 weeks at No. 1 beginning last July. It posts a 41st week atop the multimetric Hot Country Songs chart.

BigXthaPlug’s “All the Way,” featuring Bailey Zimmerman, dips to No. 8 on the Hot 100, a week after it launched at No. 4; Benson Boone’s “Beautiful Things” rises 10-9, after it hit No. 2 in March 2024; and, rounding out the top 10, Morgan Wallen “I’m the Problem” slips 9-10, after it debuted at its No. 2 high in February.
