Taylor Swift breaks a pair of records on Billboard’s Streaming Songs chart dated May 4 with music from new album The Tortured Poets Department.
She becomes the first act to occupy the entire top 15 of the Streaming Songs list, and she also appears on the ranking with 31 different songs – the most in one week by any act. (Streaming Songs’ inaugural chart was published in 2013.)
She leads the survey with “Fortnight,” featuring Post Malone. The song bows at No. 1 with 76.2 million official U.S. streams accrued April 19-25, according to Luminate.
It’s Swift’s ninth No. 1 and first since “Is It Over Now? (Taylor’s Version) [From the Vault],” which crowned the tally for two weeks last November. She first reigned with “Shake It Off” in 2014.
With nine No. 1s, Swift puts some distance between herself and Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber for the second-most rulers in the chart’s history.

As for featured artist Post Malone, it’s his third Streaming Songs leader and first since 2019, following “Sunflower (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse)” with Swae Lee.
“Fortnight” is followed by “Down Bad,” which ranks at No. 2 with 50.1 million streams. Swift occupies the entire top 15, down to “I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can),” via 28.1 million streams.
Grabbing the top 15 breaks a record previously held by Drake, who snagged the top 14 of the Sept. 18, 2021, ranking via songs from his album Certified Lover Boy.
The entirety of The Tortured Poets Department – 31 songs in all – also makes the chart, down to “Robin,” which debuts at No. 44 with 12.5 million streams. That’s also a record; the mark for most songs on a single Streaming Songs survey had previously gone to Morgan Wallen, who occupied 30 of the 50 positions on the March 18, 2023, list with music from the set One Thing at a Time.
Concurrently, as previously reported, “Fortnight” debuts at No. 1 on the multimetric Billboard Hot 100, taking the top 14 in the process. The Tortured Poets Department also debuts atop the Billboard 200.
Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso” is piping hot in the U.K., where it leads the chart race for the first time.
The American singer and actor has a bonafide hit on her hands with “Espresso” (Island), which debuted at No. 6 on the national chart, following its release April 11, and has continued to climb ever since.
“Espresso” is her first top 10 and fourth top 40 appearance on the U.K. chart, following “Feather” (No. 19 peak), “Skin” (No. 28) and “Nonsense” (No. 32).

Carpenter can’t take it to the bank. Taylor Swift’s “Fortnight” featuring Post Malone dips 1-2 on the Official Chart Update, and, based on early sales and streaming data published by the Official Charts Company, is less than 1,000 chart units behind. “Fortnight” last Friday, April 26, opened at No. 1 on the Official Chart, for Swift’s fourth leader, while its parent LP The Tortured Poets Department (EMI) rampaged its way to the summit of the albums chart, for her 12th leader and third chart double.
Another track from Swift’s double album could debut in the top 10, “I Can Do It With A Broken Heart.” It’s new at No. 7 on the Official Chart Update, and could lift her career tally of U.K. top 10s to 29.

Country music has enjoyed a revival on the U.K. charts, first with Beyonce’s No. 1 album Cowboy Carter (Columbia/Parkwood Ent), then Dasha’s single “Austin.” Shaboozey is getting in on the act with “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” (via American Dogwood/Empire), which lifts 27-8 on the chart blast and is set to give the U.S. artist his first U.K. top 10.
Dasha’s “Austin” (Warner Records), meanwhile, is predicted to hold at No. 10.
All will be revealed when the Official U.K. Singles Chart is published late Friday, May 3.
A new partnership reaches No. 1 on Billboard’s Latin Airplay chart (dated May 4), as Feid and ATL Jacob’s “Luna” rises 2-1 to lead the 50-track-deep ranking. The song becomes the 11th collaboration in 2024 to land at the summit, with three of them Feid collabs.
“Luna,” released on Universal Music Latino/UMLE, ascends to the top slot from No. 2 after a 15% increase to 10.73 million audience impressions on U.S. reporting radio stations during the April 19-25 tracking week, according to Luminate. The new No. 1 unseats Prince Royce and Gabito Ballesteros’ “Cosas de La Peda,” which spent one week in charge. It falls to No. 3 with 8.33 million in audience, down 23%.
“Luna,” produced by ATL Jacob, where the latter also provides background vocals, is one of ten cuts from Feid’s Ferxxocalipsis set, which earned the Colombian a third top 10 on Top Latin Albums (No. 9 debut last December). The song generated significant attention only after Feid shared an acoustic version on his Instagram account in January, thus followed a No. 20 launch on Latin Rhythm Airplay in February, where it holds at No. 1 in its second week.

With the new champ, American rapper ATL Jacob checks into the penthouse on the overall Latin Airplay tally for the first time. Feid, meanwhile, picks up his seventh No. 1 among 14 career entries. Further, as “Luna” shakes up the scoreboard, here’s a look at the 11 collabs, whether through co-billed or three-way combined efforts, that hit No. 1 on Latin Airplay in 2024:
Title, Artist, Peak Date“Según Quien,” Maluma & Carín León, Jan. 6“Bubalu,” Feid & Rema, Jan. 13“Harley Quinn,” Fuerza Regida & Marshmello, Feb. 3“Borracho y Loco,” Yandel & Myke Towers, Feb. 17“Qlona,” Karol G & Peso Pluma, March 2“Por El Contrario,” Becky G, Leonardo Aguilar & Angela Aguilar, March 9“No Es Normal,” Venesti, Nacho & Maffio, March 16“Puntería,” Shakira & Cardi B, April 6“Perro Negro,” Bad Bunny & Feid, April 20“Cosas de La Peda,” Prince Royce & Gabito Ballesteros, April 27“Luna,” Feid & ATL Jacob, May 4
In addition to its Latin Airplay control, “Luna” ascends 9-8 on the multi-metric Hot Latin Songs chart, which combines airplay, streaming data, and downloads, despite a 6% dip in streams, to 3.5 million official U.S. streams generated during the same period.
“Luna” is one of the 36-song setlist on Feid’s Ferxxocalipsis Tour, the North American 27-date run that launched in Sacramento April 24 and will close in Miami on July 26.

Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” bounds to No. 1 from No. 6 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart (dated May 4). The song, which interpolates J-Kwon’s 2004 hip-hop classic “Tipsy,” marks the first leader on the list for the Virginia native (born Collins Obinna Chibueze).
“A Bar Song (Tipsy)” surged by 95% to 20.9 million official U.S. streams; 1,202% to 170,000 radio airplay audience impressions; and 48% to 14,000 sold April 19-25, according to Luminate.

Notably, as Shaboozey dethrones Beyoncé’s “Texas Hold ‘Em,” which reigned for the past 10 weeks, two Black artists have led back-to-back for the first time since Hot Country Songs became an all-encompassing genre ranking in 1958.
Shaboozey guests on two tracks on Beyoncé’s LP Cowboy Carter, which leads Top Country Albums for a fourth week (with 66,000 equivalent album units): “Spaghettii” (also with Linda Martell) and “Sweet * Honey * Buckiin’.” He recently told Billboard that he’s “so happy to have such a powerhouse of an artist that chose to take this journey to country, so it’s amazing to be a part of that.”

A week earlier, Shaboozey soared to No. 1, from No. 34, on the Emerging Artists chart and “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” topped Digital Song Sales and Country Digital Song Sales, marking his first coronations on Billboard’s charts. He adds a second week atop Emerging Artists, while the track paces Country Digital Song Sales for a second frame.
The song is the lead single from Shaboozey’s American Dogwood/EMPIRE album Where I’ve Been, Isn’t Where I’m Going, due May 31. He previously released the sets Cowboys Live Forever, Outlaws Never Die in 2022 and Lady Wrangler in 2018. He told Billboard that he describes the new LP as “a little bit of this genre that even Cowboy Carter created, just a bit of everything. A lot of country, but some hip-hop moments on there, too. But a lot of my personal story and journey.”
J-Kwon’s “Tipsy” ruled the Hot Rap Songs chart for five weeks and hit No. 2 on both the Billboard Hot 100 and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs in 2004. The St. Louis rapper recently told Billboard of Shaboozey’s revival of the song, “It really ain’t even paying homage … let’s say it like this: we did that together, and I’m proud of him.”

He charted 15 of the top 20 on the chart dated Nov. 19, 2022, as Her Loss, with 21 Savage, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. Notably, Drake got in the way of Swift claiming 16 of the top 20 this week: his new single, “Push Ups,” enters at No. 19.
With 31 debuts, Swift ups her career total to 263 Hot 100 entries. That’s the most among women and the second-most overall, after Drake’s 330 (he adds a new entry this week, with “Push Ups”). Of those, 12 have hit No. 1 and 59 have hit the top 10 (the second-most, after Drake’s 77).

“Fortnight” featuring Post Malone debuts at No. 1 on the latest Official Chart, published Friday, April 26, ahead of Hozier’s “Too Sweet” (Island), down 1-2, and the TTPD title track, new at No. 3.
With that impeccable start, Swift snags her third career U.K. chart double, after ruling both charts simultaneously in 2022 with Midnights and its lead single “Anti-Hero,” and last year with 1989 (Taylor’s Version) and “Is It Over Now? (Taylor’s Version)”.

The leader on the midweek chart, “Fortnight” becomes Swift’s fourth U.K. No. 1 single after “Look What You Made Me Do” (from 2017), “Anti-Hero” (2022) and “Is It Over Now?” (Taylor’s Version) (2023), and Malone’s second — and first in seven years – after 2017’s “Rockstar” with 21 Savage.
Also, TTPD track “Down Bad” (No. 4) enters the top 10 on debut, lifting TayTay’s career tally of top tier hits to 28 (no more than three songs from any one album can be eligible for the U.K. singles chart).
Meanwhile, U.S. singer and actor Sabrina Carpenter is running hot with “Espresso” (Island), up 6-5 for her career peak U.K. chart position.
Further down the tally, Drake’s Kendrick Lamar diss track “Push Ups” (OVO/Republic Records) debuts at No. 14, giving the Canadian superstar hip-hop artist his 93rd U.K. top 40 single.
There’s another U.S. country artist making an impression on the U.K. top 40, this time singer-songwriter Shaboozey with “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” (via American Dogwood/Empire), up 41-16. Shaboozey’s profile has enjoyed a boost in the U.K. after being featured on Beyoncé’s chart-topping LP Cowboy Carter. Dasha’s “Austin” (Warner Records) is still riding in the U.K. top 10, down 7-10.
Finally, Headie One’s “Cry No More” (Columbia), a collaboration with Stormzy and Tay Keith, bows at No. 33, for Headie’s 16th, Stormzy’s 31st and Tay Keith’s second U.K. top 40 appearance.

The clear leader at the halfway mark, Tortured Poets roars to No. 1 on the Official Chart, published Friday, April 26, for her 12th U.K. leader.
As previously reported, the new collection posts a career-best start for Swift, shifting 270,000 across the full chart week, outpacing her previous personal best of 204,000, when Midnights topped the chart in 2022.

That’s the biggest opening week for any album in seven years – since Ed Sheeran’s 2017 hit ÷ (Divide), which locked up 670,000 first-week U.K. chart units. And it’s a greater first-week volume than Adele’s 2021 album 30, which accumulated 261,000 in its opening run, the Official Charts Company reports.
With a dozen leaders, Swift draws level with Madonna as the female artist with the most No. 1 albums in Official Albums Chart history. Only four acts in chart history have racked up more: The Beatles (16), The Rolling Stones (14), Robbie Williams (14) and Elvis Presley (13). Bruce Springsteen also has 12.
Tortured Poets joins Red (2012), 1989 (2014), reputation (2017), Lover (2019), folklore (2020), evermore (2020), Fearless (Taylor’s Version) (2021), Red (Taylor’s Version) (2021), Midnights (2022), Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) (2023) and 1989 (Taylor’s Version) in her collection of consecutive chart-toppers.
No other artist has notched up 12 leaders in such a short space of time, doing so in just 11 years and 6 months. That beats the Beatles, which chalked up as many No. 1s in 14 years and 1 month, between Please Please Me (May 1963) and The Beatles At Hollywood Bowl in June 1977.
Also, Swift extends her record as the only artist to claim 12 No. 1 albums in the 21st century, all of which came consecutively.
In non-TayTay news, Pearl Jam snags a best U.K. chart performance in 11 years with Dark Matter (Monkeywrench Records/Republic Records), new at No. 2, while British reggae act UB40‘s 21st studio album UB45 (Sono Recording Group) bows at No. 5.
