‘Lovin on Me’ Leads Global 200 for Second Week
Jack Harlow’s “Lovin on Me” tops the Global 200 for a second week, with 52.7 million streams (up 1%) and 10,000 sold (down 6%) worldwide in the Jan. 5-11 tracking week. A week earlier, the song became the rapper’s second No. 1 on the chart, and his first on his own, after his and Jung Kook’s “3D” ruled in its debut week in October.
Tate McRae’s “Greedy” holds at No. 2 on the Global 200, after two weeks at No. 1 beginning in November; Xavi’s “La Diabla” lifts 4-3 for a new high; Taylor Swift’s “Cruel Summer” slips 3-4, following a week on top in November; and Noah Kahan’s “Stick Season” becomes his first top five hit, jumping 8-5 with 34 million streams (up 16%) and 3,000 sold (up 11%) worldwide.

Teddy Swims scores his first Global 200 top 10, as “Lose Control” roars 22-9 with 28.3 million streams (up 22%) and 11,000 sold (up 23%) worldwide. The song concurrently becomes the Conyers, Ga., native’s first top 10 on the U.S.-based Billboard Hot 100.

The Weeknd, Jennie and Lily-Rose Depp’s “One of the Girls” also hits the Global 200’s top 10, rising 15-10, led by 40.6 million streams (up 11%) worldwide. The song was featured in the fourth episode of HBO’s The Idol and was released after the episode premiered June 23, 2023. Depp starred in the series as rising pop star Jocelyn; The Weeknd (credited under his real name, Abel Tesfaye) played nightclub owner and talent scout Tedros; and Jennie portrayed Dyanne, a backup dancer and friend of Jocelyn. The series aired five episodes on HBO and Max in June-July and, although the show was canceled in August after one season, the song has continued to surge thanks in part to popularity on TikTok.
The Weeknd adds his 11th Global 200 top 10; Jennie, her second; and Depp, her first. Notably, with Jennie as a member, BLACKPINK has posted four top 10s as a group, including the No. 1s “Pink Venom” and “Shut Down” in 2022. All four members of the South Korean group have hit the top 10 solo, totaling six top 10s: previously, Jennie reached No. 7 last October with “You & Me”; Lisa has also logged two solo top 10s, “Lalisa” and “Money,” which hit Nos. 2 and 10, respectively, in 2021; Rosé has earned one top 10, and the first solo leader among the four members, as “On the Ground” began at No. 1 in March 2021; and Jisoo has likewise landed one top 10, “Flower,” which reached No. 2 last April.
McRae Gets ‘Greedy’ Third Week Atop Global Excl. U.S.
Tate McRae’s “Greedy” rules the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart for a third week, with 39.1 million streams (up 1%) and 1,000 sold (down 9%) outside the U.S. Jan. 5-11. The track became McRae’s first leader on the list in early December.
Xavi’s “La Diabla” holds at its No. 2 Global Excl. U.S. high; Jack Harlow’s “Lovin on Me” ascends 5-3 for a new best; Taylor Swift’s “Cruel Summer” slides to No. 4 from its No. 3 high; and Jung Kook’s “Seven,” featuring Latto, falls 4-5, after it ruled for nine weeks starting upon its debut last July.
The Weeknd, Jennie and Lily-Rose Depp’s “One of the Girls” bounds 12-7 on Global Excl. U.S., with 33.6 million streams (up 10%) outside the U.S. The Weeknd achieves his ninth top 10; Jennie, her second; and Depp, her first. With Jennie as a member, BLACKPINK has banked four top 10s as a group, including the No. 1s “Lovesick Girls” in 2020 and “Pink Venom” and “Shut Down.” All four members of BLACKPINK’s have hit the top 10 as soloists, totaling six top 10s: previously, Jennie launched at No. 1 last October with “You & Me”; Lisa has claimed two top 10s, “Lalisa” and “Money,” which hit Nos. 2 and 7, respectively; Rosé has scored one top 10, the No. 1 “On the Ground”; and Jisoo has also tallied one top 10, “Flower,” which reached No. 2.

In 2023, Taylor Swift loomed so large in the world of vinyl albums, that one of every 15 vinyl albums sold in the U.S. was by the superstar.
Comparatively, in 2022, she accounted for one of every 25 vinyl albums sold.
Swift was the year’s top-selling act on vinyl for a third straight year, with 3.484 million copies sold across her catalog of albums, according to data tracking firm Luminate. The industry’s total vinyl album sales for 2023, across all artists in the U.S., finished at 49.61 million – up 14.2% from 43.46 million in 2022. 2023 marked the 18th consecutive year vinyl album sales grew in the U.S., and the largest year for vinyl album sales since Luminate began tracking data in 1991.
In 2023, Swift’s vinyl sales accounted for 7% of the industry’s total vinyl album sales.
Read more about the year-end numbers in the U.S. 2023 Luminate Year-End Music Report.
Swift’s vinyl sales were so big in 2023 that she sold more than the next seven-biggest-selling acts on vinyl last year. Lana Del Rey was the year’s No. 2-seller on vinyl, with 646,000 copies sold, followed by Tyler, the Creator (552,000), Travis Scott (474,000), Olivia Rodrigo (408,000), Kendrick Lamar (382,000), Metallica (378,000) and The Beatles (373,000). (To round out the top 10-selling acts on vinyl last year, Fleetwood Mac was No. 9, with 357,000, and Mac Miller was No. 10 with 354,000.)
The top-selling vinyl album of 2023 was Swift’s 1989 (Taylor’s Version) with 1.014 million sold. That marks the largest yearly sales total for a vinyl album, and the first vinyl set to sell a million in a calendar year, since Luminate began tracking sales in 1991. The set also scored the largest sales week for a vinyl set since 1991 when it debuted with 693,000 copies sold in its first week.
Swift has five of the top 10-selling vinyl albums of 2023, and the entire top three. (See list, below.)

Vinyl album sales comprised 47.1% of all album sales in the U.S. in 2023 (49.61 million of 105.32 million). Vinyl LPs accounted for 57% of all physical album sold last year (49.61 million of 87 million). Both sums are Luminate-era records for vinyl’s share of the album sales market in the U.S.
For the third consecutive year, and the third year since Luminate began tracking sales in 1991, vinyl albums outsold CD albums in the U.S. Vinyl once again is the leading configuration for album purchases for the third year in a row. (Vinyl was the top-selling album configuration in 2023, followed by CDs and then digital download albums.)
Vinyl was the dominant configuration for album purchases in the U.S. up until the early 1980s. After that, cassettes took hold until the early ‘90s, when the CD configuration blossomed and remained king until 2021, when vinyl retook the top slot.

Jack Harlow’s “Lovin on Me” adds a third week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. The rapper ties his longest reign on the chart, among his three leaders, after “First Class” ruled for three weeks in April-May 2022. He has also topped the chart with “Industry Baby,” with Lil Nas X, for one week in October 2021.
Plus, singer-songwriter Teddy Swims tallies his first Hot 100 top 10, as “Lose Control” ascends to No. 8, from No. 12.
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.

Harlow’s “Lovin on Me,” released on Generation Now/Atlantic Records, drew 58 million radio airplay audience impressions (up 11%, as it wins the Hot 100’s Greatest Gainer award) and 27.9 million streams (down 4%) and sold 8,000 downloads (down 11%) in the Jan. 5-11 tracking week, according to Luminate.
The single notches a fourth week atop the Streaming Songs chart; jumps 5-2 on Radio Songs; and dips to No. 2 after two frames atop Digital Song Sales.
“Lovin on Me” concurrently leads the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Rap Songs charts, which use the same methodology as the Hot 100, for a ninth week each.
“Lovin on Me” is currently a standalone single from Harlow, whose most recent album, Jackman., debuted at No. 8 on the Billboard 200 in May, becoming his third top 10 set. (The song’s hook samples singer Delbert “Dale” Greer’s 1995 track “Whatever.”)
Taylor Swift’s “Cruel Summer” keeps at No. 2 on the Hot 100 following four nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 beginning in October. It rules Radio Songs for a 12th week (69.4 million, down 4%), extending her personal-best command on the ranking.
Tate McRae’s first Hot 100 top 10, “Greedy,” holds at its No. 3 best and Zach Bryan’s “I Remember Everything,” featuring Kacey Musgraves, rises 5-4, after it dominated for a week upon its debut in September, as it rules the multimetric Hot Rock & Alternative Songs and Hot Rock Songs charts for a 20th week each and Hot Country Songs for a 16th week.
Doja Cat’s “Paint the Town Red” descends 4-5 on the Hot 100, after it led for three nonconsecutive weeks beginning in September, and SZA’s “Snooze” stays at No. 6, after reaching No. 2, as it leads the multi-metric Hot R&B Songs chart for a 24th week.
Tyla’s initial Hot 100 top 10, “Water,” is steady at its No. 7 high. It concurrently crowns the Billboard U.S. Afrobeats Songs chart for a 14th week.

Teddy Swims achieves his first Hot 100 top 10, as “Lose Control” lifts 12-8. The song drew 24.5 million in radio audience (up 6%) Jan. 5-11, as it ranks at No. 2 on the Adult Alternative Airplay chart and in the top 20 on Adult Pop Airplay, Adult Contemporary and Pop Airplay. It also tallied 16.3 million streams (up 12%) and sold 6,000 (down 7%) in the tracking week.
Teddy Swims (real name Jaten Dimsdale), from Conyers, Ga., first appeared on Billboard’s charts in 2021, after he broke through with a viral cover of Michael Jackson’s “Rock With You” in June 2019. (He signed to Warner Records on Christmas Eve 2019.) As a co-writer, he topped the Country Airplay chart via Thomas Rhett’s “Angels Don’t Always Have Wings” for a week last September.
Teddy Swims scores his first Hot 100 top 10 as a writer, as well as a recording artist. He co-penned “Lose Control” with Ammo, Julian Bunetta, Infamous and Mikky Ekko, who up their top 10 totals as writers to seven, five, two and two, respectively. (Mikky Ekko first hit the top 10 as a writer and recording artist, as featured on Rihanna’s “Stay,” which rose to No. 3 in 2013.)
“When it was finished, I was showing everybody before the song came out,” Teddy Swims told Billboard of “Lose Control” last year. “I just felt that energy, like, ‘this is lighting in a bottle.’ I knew this was going to change my life.”
(You “Snooze,” you “Lose”: the words “snooze” and “lose” appear in song titles in the Hot 100’s top 10 simultaneously for the first time, thanks to SZA and Teddy Swims’ winning hits. Meanwhile, the latter is the second top 10 titled “Lose Control”; Missy Elliott’s, featuring Ciara and Fat Man Scoop, hit No. 3 in September 2005. Plus, Eric Carmen’s “Make Me Lose Control” cruised to No. 3 in August 1988.)
Rounding out the Hot 100’s top 10, Doja Cat’s “Agora Hills” advances 10-9 for a new high and Morgan Wallen’s “Last Night” backtracks 8-10, following 16 weeks at No. 1 beginning last March, the longest reign ever for a non-collaboration.

Rema and Selena Gomez’s “Calm Down” solely claims the record for the most weeks ever spent on Billboard’s Pop Airplay chart, adding an unprecedented 64th week on the survey (dated Jan. 20).
The song, released on Jonzing World/Mavin/SMG Music/Virgin/Interscope Records, debuted on the Nov. 5, 2022-dated tally and spent five weeks at No. 1 last May-July, marking Rema’s first leader and Gomez’s fourth. It ranks at No. 12 on the latest list.
“Calm Down” breaks out of a tie with Harry Styles’ “As It Was” (63 weeks, 2022-23) for the longest Pop Airplay stay.
Here’s a rundown of the songs that have charted on Pop Airplay the longest, over the ranking’s 31-year-plus history.
Most Weeks on Pop Airplay, Title, Artist(s), Peak Pos./Date:
64 (to date), “Calm Down,” Rema & Selena Gomez, No. 1 (five weeks), beginning May 13, 2023

“Calm Down” also holds the mark for the most weeks logged in the Pop Airplay top 10: 45, from the charts dated March 11, 2023, through Jan. 13.
Rema, from Nigeria, released the original version of “Calm Down” in February 2022 as a single from his debut solo LP, Rave & Roses. Its remix with Gomez arrived that August, and that version’s official video premiered that September.
“Calm Down” dominated the Billboard U.S. Afrobeats Songs chart for 58 weeks from September 2022 to October 2023, the longest command since the ranking began in 2022.
On the all-genre, multimetric Billboard Hot 100, “Calm Down” hit No. 3 last June, becoming Rema’s first entry and Gomez’s ninth top 10, and second-highest-charting, after “Lose You to Love Me” led for a week in November 2019.
“I was at a party, and a couple of girls walked in, and I saw a girl in yellow,” Rema told Billboard in 2023 of the origin of “Calm Down.” “I wanted to talk to her, and her friends were being really stuck up. They didn’t really want to chat. And I was like, ‘Yo, just calm down. Let’s have a chat.’ And then she actually calmed down, and we started talking and dancing. When she left the party, she was on my mind, and I wanted to see her again. That was it. I walked in the studio fresh out of that emotion.
“I’m so happy,” Rema added of the song’s success. “I’m happy for me, my team, the culture and for Selena. She embraced the sound, and she did her own thing. It was the right timing [with] the right person, and the impact has been so huge. Seeing people who don’t speak my language sing my song word-for-word really shows that people are impacted by the sound, and I’m grateful for it.”
All charts dated Jan. 20 will update on Billboard.com Wednesday, Jan. 17, a day later than usual due to the Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday Jan. 15.
D-Block Europe is heading for a first U.K. No. 1 with Rolling Stone (via D-Block Europe), the British hip-hop collective’s third studio album.
Rolling Stone leads an all-new top three on the midweek chart, and will extend the act’s tally of U.K. top 10 albums, which currently stands at seven – the most of any British rap act in Official Charts history.
The result isn’t a foregone conclusion. The Vaccines are close behind with Pick-Up Full of Pink Carnations (Super Easy), on track for a No. 2 debut. Pick-Up should give the English indie-pop outfit a sixth consecutive U.K. top 10 album, and highest chart appearance since 2015’s English Graffiti, which also peaked at No. 2.

The Vaccines bagged a U.K. No. 1 with 2012’s Come of Age.
Meanwhile, 21 Savage is on target for his first solo top 10 appearance in the country of his birth. The British-American rap star is predicted to debut at No. 3 with American Dream (Epic/Slaughter Gang), his third LP. Also, three cuts from it are expected to impact the top 40 of the U.K. singles chart.
Savage, who was born in London, now based in Atlanta, has two top 10 appearances with collaborative projects. His 2022 recording with Drake, Her Loss, reached No. 1, and 2020’s Savage Mode II with Metro Boomin peaked at No. 10.
Further down the chart blast, British singer and songwriter Bill Ryder-Jones should snag his first solo top 40 album with Iechyd Da (Domino Recordings), his fifth LP. It’s new at No. 7 on the Official Chart Update. As a member of The Coral, Ryder-Jones landed a U.K. No. 1 in 2003 with Magic and Medicine.

The last time she summited was in 2020 with the title track from her Positions album, and her collaboration with Lady Gaga, “Rain On Me.”
Based on midweek sales and streaming data published by the Official Charts Company, Noah Kahan’s “Stick Season” (Republic Records) is the only barrier blocking Grande’s path. The Vermont singer and songwriter’s hit made a strong chart comeback after the festive season, and is on track for a third consecutive week at No. 1.

One Thing at a Time continues to have the most weeks at No. 1 among all albums since Adele’s 21 logged 24 nonconsecutive weeks atop the tally in 2011-12. One Thing at a Time debuted atop the chart dated March 18, 2023, and spent its first 12 weeks at No. 1 through early June.

In the album’s 45 weeks on the list, it has never dipped below No. 6. One Thing at a Time finished 2023 as both the No. 1 year-end Billboard 200 album and Luminate’s year-end top album.
The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units, compiled by Luminate.
