Just in time for the last chart cycle of 2024, GloRilla adds to her already strong results this year with a first No. 1 on Billboard’s Rhythmic Airplay chart thanks to “Whatchu Kno About Me,” her collaboration with Sexyy Red. The pair’s co-billed single rises from No. 3 to rule the chart dated Dec. 28. As GloRilla achieves her first leader, Sexyy Red banks her second No. 1 on the radio ranking, but first in a lead or co-lead capacity.

“Whatchu Kno About Me” advances to the Rhythmic Airplay summit after a 10% boost in plays that made it the most-played song on the U.S. monitored rhythmic radio panel in the tracking week ending Dec. 19, according to Luminate. The collaboration unseats Future’s “Too Fast,” which slides to No. 2 after one week in charge.

The new champ also borrows from a previous Rhythmic Airplay hit. It samples Lil Boosie’s “Wipe Me Down,” featuring Foxx and Webbie, which reached No. 23 in 2007 and spent 16 weeks on the list.
As mentioned, GloRilla achieves her first No. 1 on Rhythmic Airplay. Before the coronation, her previous two singles both put her in touching distance of the top spot. A collaboration with Megan Thee Stallion and Cardi B, “Wanna Be,” peaked at No. 3 in August, while the Memphis rapper’s solo single “TGIF” peaked in the runner-up spot last month.
For Sexyy Red, “Whatchu Kno About Me” secures the rapper a second Rhythmic Airplay No. 1, after she and SZA featured on Drake’s “Rich Baby Daddy,” a two-week leader in December 2023. The reigning champ is the rapper’s first time in charge through a lead or co-lead billing; her prior best in that category was with her “Get It Sexyyy” single, which peaked at No. 8 in July.

Adding to the triumphs, “Whatchu Kno About Me” rules Rap Airplay following an identical 3-1 climb. It jumps into the top slot after a 10% surge in audience in the tracking week, and likewise replaces Future’s “Too Fast,” which backtracks to No. 2 (down 11% in audience). There, GloRilla nabs her third No. 1, after “Tomorrow 2,” with Cardi B ruled for six weeks in 2022-23 and “TGIF” reigned for eight weeks earlier this year. Sexyy Red, meanwhile, picks up her second Rap Airplay No. 1, after a four-week run for “Rich Baby Daddy” in December 2023.
In addition to their current radio hit, GloRilla and Sexyy Red are together on another budding hit. The pair, alongside Lil Wayne, features on Tyler, The Creator’s “Sticky,” which pushes 10-8 on Rhythmic Airplay (up 17% in plays) and holds at its No. 11 high on Rap Airplay (up 11% in audience).
Stray Kids’ new album HOP puts K-pop back in a familiar spot – No. 1 on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart. HOP is the 19th No. 1 album or EP by a K-pop act on the Billboard 200. The first was BTS’ Love Yourself: Tear in June 2018. Stray Kids and BTS have each had […]
Iranian Dutch singer-songwriter Sevdaliza earns her first top 10 on a Billboard Latin radio chart thanks to “No Me Cansaré,” her maiden collab with Karol G, which rallies 17-9 on the Latin Pop Airplay chart (dated Dec. 28).
The bilingual song jumps to the top 10 on Latin Pop Airplay after a 1.7 million gain in audience impressions earned during the Dec. 13-19 tracking week, according to Luminate; that’s a 52% increase compared to the previous frame. The song was released Oct. 18 on Bichota/Interscope/Broke/Create Music Group.
With “No Me Cansaré,” Sevdaliza grabs her first top 10 on any Latin radio ranking, after the song opened at No. 22 less than a month ago, on the Nov. 30-dated list. The new win, however, becomes her second top 10 on a Latin chart overall, as the collab debuted and peaked at No. 5 on Latin Digital Song Sales (Nov. 2-dated survey).
Trending on Billboard
Prior to her radio and sales charts visits, the singer enjoyed some popularity on the multi-metric Hot Latin Songs chart (which combines radio airplay, streaming activity and digital downloads into its formula) where “Ride Or Die, Pt. 2,” her three-way team-up with Villano Antillano and Tokischa, peaked at No. 43 in May. There, “No Me Cansaré” reached No. 35 high in early November, for her highest rank among two total entries.
Back to Latin Pop Airplay, the song marks Karol G’s 15th top 10 career hit. The hitmaker placed one other song in the top 10 there in 2024, the No. 2-peaking “Contigo,” with Tiesto (June 1-dated list). Prior, “TQG,” with Shakira, took both Colombians to No. 1 in April 2023, where the song held strong atop for the 14 weeks, the most that year.

It’s been an eventful year for music in Canada. Billboard Canada has published year-end versions of multiple charts: the Canadian Hot 100, Canadian Albums, Top Artists (which combines data from both), Canadian Airplay, Canadian Streaming and Canadian Digital Song Sales. Each one tells a story about the Canadian music landscape in 2024.
It’s no big surprise to see who tops the year-end Billboard Canadian Hot 100 chart. Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” broke the record for longest-leading No. 1 hit this year, surpassing Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road” for 20 weeks at the top and then extending the record to 25 weeks at No. 1. He set a similar record on the U.S. Hot 100, but did it in Canada first and for longer (on the U.S. Year-End Hot 100, “Tipsy” finishes second behind “Lose Control” by Teddy Swims.)
The biggest music story of the year was Drake vs. Kendrick Lamar. If one song can be declared the winner based solely on the charts, it’s “Not Like Us.” Even in Canada, Drake’s home turf, Kendrick’s irresistible diss track charted the highest. The song sits at No. 11 on the year-end Canadian Hot 100 and No. 11 on the year-end Streaming Songs chart. That chart success comes with some controversy, however, with Drake launching legal actions to accuse Universal Music Group, iHeartRadio and Spotify of conspiring to inflate the numbers. But the song was a bona fide hit.
Drake’s biggest hits, meanwhile, have little to do with his Kendrick beef. “IDGAF” with Yeat at No. 54, “Rich Baby Daddy” with SZA & Sexyy Red at No. 67, and “First Person Shooter” with J. Cole at No. 75 are all from his 2023 album For All The Dogs. And on the 2024 Artists chart for Canada? Drake is at No. 4 and Kendrick is at No. 17.
It’s never a surprise to see Taylor Swift ruling the year-end charts, but her unprecedented Eras Tour — undoubtedly the highest-grossing of all time — has given her an extra boost this year as she finished it off in Toronto and Vancouver in November and December. All of Taylor’s eras (or albums, if you’re old-fashioned) got a boost, which made her a lock for No. 1 on the Artists chart, which combines data from the Canadian Hot 100 and Canadian Albums chart. On the latter chart, Swift holds four of the top 10 spots: The Tortured Poets Department at No. 1, 1989 (Taylor’s Version) at No. 4 and Lover and Midnights at Nos. 9 and 10.

Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You” sets a new mark for the most time spent at No. 1 on Billboard’s Streaming Songs chart since its 2013 inception, spending a record 21st week atop the Dec. 28-dated tally. “All I Want for Christmas Is You” reigns with 48 million official U.S. streams earned […]
A select 16 shiny holiday hits have hung like ornaments in the Billboard Hot 100’s top 10.
The Chipmunks’ “The Chipmunk Song,” with David Seville, became the first Yuletide track to reach the region, logging for four weeks at No. 1 in the 1958 holiday season.
Two other carols have spent time upon the Hot 100’s highest bow: Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” from 1994, for 17 total weeks at No. 1 beginning in 2019, and Brenda Lee’s “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree,” from 1958, for three weeks over the 2023 holiday season.
The two most recently released holiday hits to jingle to the Hot 100’s top 10 do so on the Dec. 28, 2024, dated chart: Ariana Grande’s “Santa Tell Me,” released in 2014, and Kelly Clarkson’s “Underneath the Tree,” from 2013.
Previously, superstar saxophonist Kenny G boasted the most recently released holiday top 10: his take on “Auld Lang Syne,” released at the end of 1999, hit No. 7 in the Y2K holiday season. (A mix including news clips of noteworthy 20th century events added to the original instrumental’s reach.)
The most vintage seasonal song to have reached the Hot 100’s top 10? Nat King Cole’s “The Christmas Song (Merry Christmas to You).” He unveiled the chestnut in 1946.
Notably, the bulk of holiday hits that have dashed to the Hot 100’s top 10 have done so in the 2020s, as streaming has grown and holiday music has become more prominent on streaming services’ playlists. (Further, for much of the Hot 100’s history, holiday songs were not eligible to make the list, appearing instead on seasonal surveys.)
As for the titles of the 16 top 10 Hot 100 holiday entries, five feature “Christmas” and one “Navidad.” “Tree” has appeared in two titles. (Plus, fittingly per their sleigh positions, “Rudolph” reached the top 10, over the 2020 holidays, before “Santa.”)
Here’s a recap of every holiday song that has made a holly jolly journey to the Hot 100’s top 10, listed from the most recently released to the earliest.
“Santa Tell Me,” Ariana Grande
ROSÉ and Bruno Mars’ “APT.” tops the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts for a ninth week apiece. The song debuted as the stars’ second leader on each list.
Plus, six seasonal songs light up each chart’s top 10.

The Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts, which began in September 2020, rank songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by Luminate. The Global 200 is inclusive of worldwide data and the Global Excl. U.S. chart comprises data from territories excluding the United States.
Chart ranks are based on a weighted formula incorporating official-only streams on both subscription and ad-supported tiers of audio and video music services, as well as download sales, the latter of which reflect purchases from full-service digital music retailers from around the world, with sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites excluded from the charts’ calculations.
“APT.” rules the Global 200 with 142 million streams and 18,000 sold (down 4% week-over-week in each metric) worldwide Dec. 13-19. The hit now claims nine of the top 10 global streaming weeks among songs released in 2024:
224.5 million, “APT.,” ROSÉ & Bruno Mars, Nov. 2
207.5 million, “APT.,” Nov. 9
176.8 million, “Fortnight,” Taylor Swift feat. Post Malone, May 4
162.2 million, “APT.,” Nov. 16
160.6 million, “APT.,” Dec. 7
149.9 million, “APT.,” Dec. 14
147.7 million, “APT.,” Dec. 21
146.4 million, “APT.,” Nov. 23
142 million, “APT.,” Dec. 28
132.7 million, “APT.,” Nov. 30
Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You” keeps at No. 2 on the Global 200. Released in 1994, the song has spent a record 18 weeks at No. 1 dating to the chart’s start (five each over the 2023 and 2022 holidays and four in both the 2021 and 2020 holiday seasons).
Five other carols rank in the Global 200’s top 10: Wham’s “Last Christmas” (No. 3), Brenda Lee’s “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” (No. 5), Bobby Helms’ “Jingle Bell Rock” (No. 6) all hold in place, followed by Ariana Grande’s “Santa Tell Me” (10-9) and Kelly Clarkson’s “Underneath the Tree” (11-10). The songs have hit respective Nos. 2, 2, 4, 5 and 6 highs.
Plus, Lady Gaga and Mars’ “Die With a Smile” is steady at No. 4 on the Global 200, following eight weeks at No. 1, the most for any song this year, beginning in September. It drew 125.6 million streams (up 4%) worldwide in the latest tracking frame and has tallied over 100 million streams globally in each of the last 16 weeks, the longest such streak since the chart began.
“APT.” concurrently tops Global Excl. U.S. with 124.9 million streams (down 4%) and 12,000 sold (up 1%) outside the U.S. Dec. 13-19.
“Die With a Smile” repeats at No. 2 on Global Excl. U.S.. following eight weeks at No. 1 starting in September; Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You” is steady at No. 3, having spent a record-tying 13 weeks at No. 1; Wham’s “Last Christmas” holds at No. 4, after reaching No. 2; and Billie Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” is stationary at No. 5, following three weeks at No. 1 in August.
Meanwhile, four more holiday hits decorate the Global Excl. U.S. top 10: Lee’s “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” (8-7), Helms’ “Jingle Bell Rock” (9-8) Sia’s “Snowman” (10-9) and Grande’s “Santa Tell Me” (11-10). The songs have reached highs of Nos. 3, 5, 4 and 5, respectively.
The Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (dated Dec. 28, 2024) will update on Billboard.com Tuesday, Dec. 24.

Two modern original holiday hits each dash merrily into the Billboard Hot 100’s top 10 for the first time: Ariana Grande’s “Santa Tell Me,” released in 2014 (14-9), and Kelly Clarkson’s “Underneath the Tree,” from 2013 (15-10). Both songs previously peaked at No. 11 last holiday season.
“Santa Tell Me” totaled 27.7 million official streams (up 17% week-over-week), 8.9 million in radio airplay audience (up 3%) and 1,000 sold (up 12%) in the U.S. Dec. 13-19, according to data tracker Luminate. “Underneath the Tree” rang up totals of 28.4 million streams (up 19%), 9.2 million in radio reach (up 16%) and 2,000 sold (down 1%).
(Despite higher raw streaming totals for “Underneath the Tree,” “Santa Tell Me” ranks higher on the Hot 100 and the Streaming Songs chart due to the application of weighting to all titles’ paid/subscription and ad-supported on-demand streams and programmed/radio streams.)
Grande notches her 22nd career Hot 100 top 10, and her third this year, following two No. 1s: “We Can’t Be Friends (Wait for Your Love)” in March, and “Yes, And?” in January. She first hit the top 10 with her debut entry, “The Way,” featuring Mac Miller (No. 9, June 2013).
Clarkson posts her 12th Hot 100 top 10 and first since “Piece by Piece” hit No. 8 in March 2016. The inaugural American Idol winner soared in with her debut coronation anthem “A Moment Like This,” which led for two weeks in October 2002.
Reflecting that contemporary traditions have a home during the holidays, “Santa Tell Me” becomes the most recently released seasonal song to reach the Hot 100’s top 10, while “Underneath the Tree” is the second-newest. Prior to this week, Kenny G boasted the most recently released holiday top 10: His take on “Auld Lang Syne,” released at the end of 1999, hit No. 7 in the Y2K holiday season. (A mix including news clips of noteworthy 20th century events added to the original instrumental’s reach.)
Mariah Carey’s 1994 carol “All I Want for Christmas Is You” – at the Hot 100’s highest bough for a 17th total week at No. 1 – is the only other holiday song from the ‘90s to have hit the top 10. New Kids on the Block’s “This One’s for the Children,” from 1989, is now the fifth most recently released holiday-themed top 10, having risen to No. 7 that Yuletide season.
The other seasonal songs that have reached the Hot 100’s top 10 were released between 1946 (Nat King Cole’s “The Christmas Song [Merry Christmas to You]”) and 1984 (Wham!’s “Last Christmas”). The bulk of holiday hits that have hit the top 10 have done so this decade, as streaming has grown and holiday music has become more prominent on streaming services’ playlists.
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 Dec. 28, 2024) will update on Billboard.com Tuesday (Dec. 24). For all chart news, you can follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter and Instagram.
Mariah Carey‘s “All I Want for Christmas Is You” tops the Billboard Hot 100 for a 17th total week. The song solely gives Carey her longest career command on the chart, surpassing the 16-week No. 1 run of her “One Sweet Day,” with Boyz II Men, in 1995-96.
The carol, which leads the Hot 100 for a third consecutive week this holiday season, also solely claims the third-longest domination in the chart’s 66-year history, after only the 19-week rules of Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” this year and Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road,” featuring Billy Ray Cyrus, in 2019. Three other songs, including “One Sweet Day,” have led for 16 weeks each.
“All I Want for Christmas Is You” additionally leads the Streaming Songs chart for a record-breaking 21st total week, besting “Old Town Road” for the longest No. 1 stay dating to the survey’s 2013 start.
“All I Want for Christmas Is You” was originally released on Carey’s album Merry Christmas in November 1994 and, as streaming has grown and holiday music has become more prominent on streaming services’ playlists, it hit the Hot 100’s top 10 for the first time in December 2017, and the top five for the first time in the 2018 holiday season. It led at last, prior to the past three weeks, over the holidays in 2019 (for three weeks), 2020 (two), 2021 (three), 2022 (four) and 2023 (two).
“All I Want for Christmas Is You” became Carey’s 19th Hot 100 No. 1, the most among soloists and one away from The Beatles’ overall record 20. It also made Carey the first artist to have ranked at No. 1 on the chart in four distinct decades (1990s, 2000s, ‘10s and ‘20s).
Meanwhile, two fellow original holiday hits, released in the 2010s, hit the Hot 100’s top 10 for the first time: Ariana Grande “Santa Tell Me,” from 2014 (14-9), and Kelly Clarkson’s “Underneath the Tree,” from 2013 (15-10). Both songs previously peaked at No. 11 last holiday season. Notably, “Santa Tell Me” becomes the most-recently-released holiday song to have reached the Hot 100’s top 10, while “Underneath the Tree” is the second-newest.
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.

Swift continues her record-breaking year at the top of the ARIA Albums Chart, while Rosé holds strong at No. 1 on the ARIA Singles Chart, with Christmas classics also shaking up the scene. Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department is unstoppable, spending its eighth consecutive week at No. 1 on the Albums Chart. It marks 18 weeks in 2024 that Taylor has ruled the ARIA charts across multiple albums, including 1989 (Taylor’s Version), Midnights, and Lover.
That’s right—she’s managed to outdo even herself, beating her 17-week streak from 2023.

Adding to the excitement, Stray Kids storm in at No. 4 with their mixtape Hop. With Aussies Felix and Bang Chan leading the charge, the K-pop superstars prove they’re a force to be reckoned with, following the success of last year’s 5-Star.
Meanwhile, Michael Bublé’s Christmas makes its festive return, climbing back into the top 10 at No. 9, because let’s face it—Christmas isn’t complete without Bublé crooning in the background.
On the Singles Chart, Rosé and Bruno Mars’ smash hit “APT.” is showing no signs of slowing down, claiming its seventh non-consecutive week at No. 1. With just one more week, it could tie Sabrina Carpenter’s “Taste” as 2024’s longest-running No. 1 single. And speaking of holiday magic, Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You” rockets from No. 8 to No. 3. The Queen of Christmas does it again, with her timeless anthem on track for another festive chart takeover.
Holiday cheer continues to sprinkle across the charts. Wham!’s “Last Christmas” jingles its way up to No. 7, while Brenda Lee’s “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” cracks the top 10 at No. 10.
Not to be left out, Bobby Helms’ “Jingle Bell Rock” rises to No. 14, and Ariana Grande’s “Santa Tell Me” climbs to No. 18, proving that the season of giving is also the season of charting. Lola Young shakes things up with her breakout hit “Messy,” which leaps from No. 18 to No. 6, marking the U.K. singer’s first top 10 in Australia.
