HARDY’s ‘Rockstar’ Reigns on Hot Hard Rock Songs Chart
Written by djfrosty on February 22, 2024
HARDY notches a second No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Hard Rock Songs chart thanks to the appropriately named “Rockstar,” which bows atop the Feb. 24-dated survey.
“Rockstar” accumulated 2.5 million official U.S. streams, 209,000 radio audience impressions and 2,000 sold from its Feb. 9 release through Feb. 15, according to Luminate.
The download count launches “Rockstar” at No. 1 on Hard Rock Digital Song Sales, where it’s HARDY’s third ruler, following “Jack” and “The Mockingbird & the Crow,” both in October 2022.
“Rockstar” also premieres at No. 21 on Hard Rock Streaming Songs, No. 31 on the multi-metric Hot Rock & Alternative Songs and No. 40 on Mainstream Rock Airplay.
The song follows “Sold Out” in April 2022 as HARDY’s second Hot Hard Rock Songs No. 1. In between “Sold Out” and “Rockstar,” he logged nine entries on the survey, including six top 10s, paced by a pair of No. 2 debuts and peaks in “Jack” and, last month, “Quit!!”
HARDY boasts entries on both Billboard’s rock and country hybrid charts; “Truck Bed” ranks at No. 11 in its 46th week on Hot Country Songs, after peaking so far at No. 10 in January. It’s the current radio single from The Mockingbird & the Crow, HARDY’s second studio album and his first to fuse country and rock elements. The song concurrently reaches a new No. 6 high on Country Airplay.
“Rockstar” is currently a standalone single. The Mockingbird & the Crow debuted at No. 1 on the Top Country Albums and Top Rock & Alternative Albums charts in February 2023 and has earned 1 million equivalent album units to date.
