Shaboozey’s ‘A Bar Song (Tipsy)’ Tops Hot 100 for Sixth Week, Tying 2024’s Longest Reign
Written by djfrosty on August 19, 2024
Post Malone’s “I Had Some Help,” featuring Morgan Wallen, holds at No. 2 on the Hot 100, following six nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 beginning in May. It rules the multimetric Songs of the Summer chart for a 12th week.
Notably, thanks to Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” and “I Had Some Help,” titles that have led the Hot Country Songs chart have ranked at Nos. 1 and 2 simultaneously on the Hot 100 for the past five weeks. That’s the longest such streak since country hits took the top two spots for six consecutive weeks last August-September (via Jason Aldean’s “Try That in a Small Town”; Wallen’s “Last Night”; Luke Combs’ “Fast Car”; Oliver Anthony Music’s “Rich Men North of Richmond”; and Zach Bryan’s “I Remember Everything,” featuring Kacey Musgraves).
Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” repeats at No. 3 on the Hot 100, following two weeks on top. It leads the multimetric Hot Rap Songs chart for a 14th week and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs for a 12th week.
Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso” keeps at No. 4 on the Hot 100, after reaching No. 3.
Billie Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” lifts 7-5 on the Hot 100, with 35.7 million in radio reach (up 12%), 23.9 million streams (up 7%) and 8,000 sold (up 129%). Helping spark gains, Eilish performed the song at the 2024 Summer Olympics closing ceremony Aug. 11 in Los Angeles, where the next Summer Olympic Games will be held in 2028. The song becomes Eilish’s fourth top five entry, joining “Bad Guy” (No. 1, one week, 2019), “Therefore I Am” (No. 2, 2020) and “Lunch” (No. 5, this June). Her latest LP, Hit Me Hard and Soft, houses both “Birds of a Feather” and “Lunch,” marking her first album to generate multiple top five Hot 100 hits. “Birds of a Feather” simultaneously spends a second week at No. 1 on the multimetric Hot Rock & Alternative Songs and Hot Alternative Songs charts.
Tommy Richman’s “Million Dollar Baby” dips 5-6 on the Hot 100, after reaching No. 2, as it notches a 16th week atop the multimetric Hot R&B Songs chart; Chappell Roan’s “Good Luck, Babe!” descends to No. 7 from its No. 6 Hot 100 high; and Carpenter’s “Please Please Please” repeats at No. 8, after it became her first No. 1 in June.
Teddy Swims’ “Lose Control,” which led the Hot 100 for a week in March, is steady at No. 9. It also ties for the eighth-most weeks tallied in the top 10 this decade:
- 57 weeks, “Blinding Lights,” The Weeknd, 2020-21
- 44, “Stay,” The Kid LAROI & Justin Bieber, 2021-22
