Billboard has more than 200 different weekly charts in its menu, encompassing numerous genres and formats.
While established artists often compete for a spot on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart and Billboard 200 albums ranking, which track the most popular songs and albums of the week, respectively, up-and-coming talents typically start off on genre-specific lists.
Here’s a look at 10 acts who appear on surveys for the first time on the June 10-dated charts.

Byron Messia
The Jamaica-born artist, based in Saint Kitts and Nevis, reaches Billboard’s charts for the first time with his latest LP No Love. The set, released Jan. 20 through Ztekk Records, debuts at No. 8 on the Reggae Albums chart with 1,000 equivalent album units earned in the latest May 26-June 1 tracking week, according to Luminate. The project debuts on the strength of its breakout Dancehall-centric trap hit “Talibans,” which tallied 1.5 million U.S. streams (up 64%) in the latest tracking week. Messia, who recently signed to Interscope Records, has previously released five additional albums: Different Perspectives, Top 10 (2017), Byron Messia (Top 2018), S.I.G.H. Remastered, HitsTape and Pills Nd Pain.
Gia Margaret
The Chicago-based singer-songwriter/producer/composer arrives on Billboard’s charts for the first time thanks to her new third LP, Romantic Piano. The 12-track set, released May 26 through Jagjaguwar, debuts at No. 2 on Classical Crossover Albums. Save for the sixth track, “City Song,” the album is entirely instrumental, flush with ambient sounds and the occasional electric guitar. Margaret, who has described her sound as “sleep rock,” has released two other albums: 2019’s There’s Always Glimmer and 2020’s Mia Gargaret (both on Orindal Records). She also released a pair of songs with Welsh folk singer-songwriter Novo Amor, “No Fun” and “Lucky for You,” in 2019.
Kassa Overall
The Seattle-based jazz drummer, rapper and producer scores his first chart appearance, thanks to his third studio album, Animals. The set, released May 26 on Warp Records, debuts at No. 11 on the Contemporary Jazz Albums chart. Overall recruited a host of artists to perform on the set, including Danny Brown, Theo Croker, Francis and the Lights, Lil B and Shabazz Palaces, among others. Previously, Overall released two LPs: Go Get Ice Cream and Listen to Jazz in 2019 (self-released) and I Think I’m Good in 2020 (via Brownswood Recordings). In 2021, he scored a Grammy Award nomination for best jazz instrumental album, for his contributions to Terri Lyne Carrington and Social Science’s Waiting Game. He has also collaborated with Jon Batiste and Yoko Ono. Currently, he’s on the road supporting Digable Planets on their latest tour.
Imase
The Japanese pop singer-songwriter hits Billboard’s charts for the first time with his track “Night Dancer.” The song, released in August 2022 through Universal Music Japan, debuts at No. 83 on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart, with 15.2 million streams worldwide, and No. 165 on the Billboard Global 200. TikTok has been a significant factor in the song’s growing profile, as a portion of the track has been used in over 200,000 clips on the platform to date. One such video is a recent clip of BTS’ Jungkook singing the song’s chorus. Also contributing to the track’s recent push is a May 15 remix by South Korean rapper BIG Naughty. Imase is slated to kick off his first tour this fall.
Sexyy Red & Tay Keith
Sexyy Red and Tay Keith both make impressive arrivals on Billboard‘s charts as recording artists, as their new collaboration “Pound Town 2,” with Nicki Minaj, debuts at No. 14 on Hot Rap Songs, No. 21 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and No. 66 on the Billboard Hot 100, plus at No. 34 on Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay and No. 41 on R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay. The song, whose remix adding Minaj was released May 26 via Heavy On It/Open Shift/Gamma Records, arrives with 6.7 million official streams (up 127%), 2.8 million radio airplay audience impressions (up 104%) and 5,000 downloads sold (up from a nominal sum) May 26-June 1. While Sexyy Red (real name: Janae Wherry) is brand new to Billboard’s charts, Tay Keith (real name: Brytavious Lakeith Chambers) has already made an impactful mark as a producer (though “Pound Town 2” is his first credit under an artist billing). He’s produced 37 Hot 100-charting songs in his career, including six top 10s and two No. 1s: Travis Scott’s “Sicko Mode” (co-produced with Hit-Boy, OZ, Cubeatz and Roget Chahayed) and Drake’s “Jimmy Cooks,” featuring 21 Savage (co-produced with Vinylz). Click here for more on the debut.
Chief Wuk
Chief Wuk notches his first Billboard chart entry, thanks to his featured appearance on Lil Durk’s “Big Dawg.” The song — released May 26 on Lil Durk’s new LP, Almost Healed, on Alamo Records — debuts at No. 67 on the Hot 100 with 7.4 million official streams in the tracking week. It also debuts at No. 15 on Hot Rap Songs and No. 22 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. Chief Wuk (real name: Vontrell Voker), from Chicago, is a long-time collaborator of Lil Durk. Click here for more on Chief Wuk’s chart debut.
Natalie & Brittany Haas
The siblings both score their first-ever solo Billboard chart visits with their new collaborative album HAAS. The set, released May 26 via Padiddle Records, debuts at No. 7 on Classical Crossover Albums. The Haas sisters, from Menlo Park, Calif., are both seasoned musicians. Natalie, a cellist who is also an associate professor in the Strings department at Berklee College of Music, has recorded with Scottish fiddler Alasdair Fraser and served as a guest artist on over 100 albums as a studio musician. Brittany, a fiddler and banjoist, is also a member of the chamber-grass band Crooked Still, which has released five studio LPs (one of which, Some Strange Country, reached No. 15 on the Americana/Folk Albums chart in 2010). She has also performed with Béla Fleck, Tony Trischka, Abigail Washburn and Steve Martin’s bluegrass band. On June 2, she was named the new fiddler of the Punch Brothers, taking over for longtime member Gabe Witcher. The Haas sisters have a string of tour dates together later this month on the west coast in support of HAAS.
Alvin Garrett
The Birmingham, Ala., native arrives on Billboard’s charts with “’Til I Get Back to You.” The track, released May 5 via HILL Entertainment, debuts at No. 29 on Adult R&B Airplay (up 15% in plays). Garrett is also an accomplished songwriter, having written songs for Fantasia, Johnny Gill, Joe, Kelly Rowland and Ruben Studdard, among others. One of those tracks, Joe’s “I’d Rather Have a Love,” reached No. 18 on Hot R&B Songs in 2013. Garrett has also written two No. 1s on the Gospel Airplay chart: Fred Jerkins’ “Patiently Praising,” featuring Lowell Pye (2021), and Lamont Sanders’ “He Kept Me” (2022). Garrett has also released three solo studio albums: Expose Yourself in 2012, This HILL in 2019, and The Lightness of Love in 2021.
Lola Audreys
The South African dance-pop artist hits Billboard’s charts with her track “Miami,” featuring Nile Rodgers. The song, which she self-released in November, debuts at No. 39 on the Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart (up 30% in plays). Contributing to the song’s gains are multiple remixes: three each by Majestic, three by Paul Woolford, two by LP Giobbi and one each by Öwnboss and Tropic Thrust. Audreys has also released the songs “Diamonds” (including remixes with Redondo and MESZCA), “Meck’s M.I.A. Megafix,” with Rodgers and Meck, and “Tension” (plus a remix with MK).
D.O.D
The British DJ and producer (full name: Dan O’Donnell) scores his first chart appearance thanks to his track “So Much in Love.” The song, released April 21 via Armada Music, debuts at No. 40 on the Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart (up 36% in plays). D.O.D has been active in the dance community for over a decade. He’s previously collaborated with fellow genre staples Afrojack, Calum Scott, Deorro, Laidback Luke and others.
Sexyy Red and Tay Keith are officially Billboard Hot 100-charting recording artists for the first time, as their new collaboration “Pound Town 2,” with Nicki Minaj, debuts on the June 10-dated list at No. 66.

The song, whose remix adding Minaj was released May 26 via Heavy On It/Open Shift/Gamma Records, arrives with 6.7 million official streams (up 127%), 2.8 million radio airplay audience impressions (up 104%) and 5,000 downloads sold (up from a nominal sum) the United States in the May 26-June 1 tracking week, according to Luminate.
“Pound Town 2” with Minaj is the sequel to the original Sexyy Red and Tay Keith version, which the pair released Jan. 27. Contributing to the song’s gains are multiple versions: the original, sped-up and slowed-down and instrumental versions, a radio edit and a “bass boosted” mix. (All versions of the track are combined into one listing on Billboard’s charts.)
The collab also debuts at No. 14 on Hot Rap Songs and No. 21 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, both of which use the same multi-metric methodology as the Hot 100. As its radio reach builds, it opens at No. 34 on Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay and No. 41 on R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay.
TikTok has been critical in the song’s growing popularity. A portion of the original has been used in over 140,000 videos on the platform. Another version, credited to SkeeYee and Sexyy Red, has been used in over 50,000 videos, with other parts of the song being used in a significant number of clips.
Sexyy Red (real name: Janae Wherry) is brand new to Billboard’s charts, as this week marks the first in which she has appeared on a ranking.
She released her first song on streaming services in 2018: “Ah Thousand Jugs,” is a reworking of Vanessa Carlton’s 2002 No. 5 Hot 100 hit “A Thousand Miles.” In 2021, she self-released her debut LP, Ghetto Superstar. This April, NLE Choppa dropped a remix of his single “Slut Me Out” adding Sexyy Red in a featured role. The track hit No. 28 in April and currently ranks at No. 65. Sexyy Red is also on the “314 remix” of Kali’s “Area Codes,” at No. 38 on the Hot 100 after reaching No. 33. (As the remixes have not accounted for the bulk of the songs’ weekly consumption, she has not been credited on either title on Billboard’s charts.)
Tay Keith (real name: Brytavious Lakeith Chambers) has been one of the most in-demand hip-hop producers of the decade, but “Pound Town 2” becomes his first Hot 100 entry as a billed recording artist. He has produced 37 Hot 100-charting songs, collaborating with artists including Cardi B, Drake, Eminem, Future, Gucci Mane, Lil Baby, 21 Savage and Travis Scott. Six have reached the top 10 and two climbed to No. 1: Travis Scott’s “Sicko Mode” (co-produced with Hit-Boy, OZ, Cubeatz and Roget Chahayed) and Drake’s “Jimmy Cooks,” featuring 21 Savage (co-produced with Vinylz).
Tay Keith has also tallied 15 top 10s as a producer on Hot Rap Songs, including three No. 1s: “Sicko Mode,” “Jimmy Cooks” and Drake and 21 Savage’s “Rich Flex.”
Tay Keith scored his first production credit on the Hot 100 in February 2018, when BlocBoy JB’s “Look Alive,” featuring Drake, debuted at No. 6. Notably, his first seven production entries on the Hot 100, all in 2018, reached the top 40: “Look Alive” (No. 5 peak); Drake’s “Nonstop” (No. 2); “Sicko Mode” (No. 1); Eminem’s “Not Alike,” featuring Royce Da 5’9 (No. 24); 6ix9ine’s “Stoopid,” featuring Bobby Shmurda (No. 25); Lil Baby and Gunna’s “Never Recover,” featuring Drake (No. 15); and Metro Boomin’s “Don’t Come Out the House,” featuring 21 Savage (No. 38).
Additionally, Tay Keith has spent six weeks at No. 1 on Rap Producers and one week at No. 1 on R&B/Hip-Hop Producers. In 2021, Billboard’s editorial staff ranked him as one the greatest producers of the 21st century.
Alicia Keys increases her mark for the most No. 1s on Billboard’s Adult R&B Airplay chart as “Come for Me (Unlocked),” featuring Khalid and Lucky Daye, ascends to the top of the list dated June 10. The song advances from No. 2 thanks to a 1% gain in plays that made it the most-played song on reporting U.S. monitored adult R&B radio stations in the week ending June 1, according to Luminate.
The new champ gives Keys her 14th Adult R&B Airplay No. 1, furthering her record for the most among all artists. As she distances herself yet again from the competition, here’s a look at the artists with the most leaders since the list began in 1993:
14, Alicia Keys11, Toni Braxton9, Charlie Wilson8, Bruno Mars8, Kem8, Maxwell8, Tank7, Mary J. Blige7, H.E.R.7, R. Kelly
For Khalid, “Come for Me” secures the R&B hitmaker’s fourth champ on Adult R&B Airplay, and second visit with Keys. He previously led with his own three-week No. 1 “Location” in 2017 and 12-week smash “Talk” in 2019, before reaching the top in a featured role on Keys’ “So Done” for one week in 2021.
Lucky Daye, meanwhile, lands his first Adult R&B Airplay chart-topper. His prior best was a No. 2 result though a featured turn on Earth, Wind & Fire’s “You Want My Love” in 2021. As a lead artist, the Grammy winner has achieved a No. 8 high with “Roll Some Mo” in 2019.
Elsewhere, “Come for Me” climbs 19-17 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart, which ranks songs based on combined audience listenership from both adult R&B and mainstream R&B/hip-hop stations. There, the single rises despite a 3% decline, to 6.3 million. On the Hot R&B Songs chart, which blends radio airplay metrics with streaming and sales figures, “Come for Me” debuts at No. 25.
“Come for Me” appears on the deluxe edition of Keys’ 2021 album Keys, dubbed Keys II, that dropped in August 2022. (All versions of the album are combined for tracking and charting purposes.) The singer-songwriter will soon embark on a tour in support of the set, Keys to the Summer, a 23-date trek that begins June 28 in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and wraps Aug. 2 in Inglewood, Calif.
Chief Wuk notches his first entry on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, thanks to his featured appearance on Lil Durk’s “Big Dawg.” The song, released May 26 on Lil Durk’s new LP Almost Healed (on Alamo Records), debuts at No. 67 on the survey dated June 10 with 7.4 million official streams in the United […]
While Morgan Wallen has been reigning atop the Billboard charts for the better part of the spring, Taylor Swift has been dominating nearly all other facets of pop culture — largely due to her continent-crossing Eras Tour, which seems to make a week’s worth of headlines with every additional stop.

This week, Swift’s chart presence again matches her general ubiquity, as her Midnights album — boosted by a number of goodie-boasting new reissues and physical variants — returns to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 (dated June 10). One of those deluxe bonus cuts is the much-hyped remix of Midnights‘ “Karma,” featuring rising star Ice Spice, which also propels that track to a new peak of No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100.
How important was it for Taylor Swift’s big year to have a chart week like this? And is she reaching the point of overexposure — if such a point even exists for Swift in the first place? Billboard staffers discuss these questions and more below.
1. While Taylor Swift has unquestionably dominated 2023 from a discussion standpoint, she’s been a little less present at the top of the charts. Do you think it’s at all significant that she returns to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 this week with Midnights, or does that not even make it near the top of the Swift-related headlines for this week?
Rania Aniftos: We all know that the whole Matty Healy situation has greatly overshadowed this chart accomplishment, but Taylor always deserves her flowers when it comes to her ability to re-ignite interest and extend the lifetimes of her albums. With the Eras tour in full swing and Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) on the way, we’ll be seeing a whole lot more of that as we enter the summer.
Katie Atkinson: I think it’s significant, especially considering that she toppled the seemingly unstoppable One Thing at a Time with a six-month-old album. But every headline adds up to the same thing: Swift is currently at the absolute pinnacle of her pop powers. The record-breaking success of Midnights late last year snowballed into her blockbuster, marathon Eras Tour, which is now leading into her latest re-recording — Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) — next month. The continued success of Midnights might not be surprising, but it is momentous nonetheless.
Kyle Denis: Given that Midnights has already spent several weeks at No. 1 and that Tayloris already in rare air in terms of her success across the Billboard charts, this return to No. 1 isn’t all that significant. Midnights has remained in the Top 10 for the entirety of its run so far, so it’s not like the album is rising from the dead. At best, it’s a testament to her ability to keep fans interested and invested in her albums several months post-release, which seems to only get more difficult as the streaming era progresses. Realistically, her reported breakup with Matty Healy is the biggest T-Swift story of the week.
Jason Lipshutz: While a return to No. 1 on the Billboard 200, thanks in part to the release of a deluxe edition of Midnights, isn’t too noteworthy for a superstar of Taylor Swift’s caliber, she did accomplish something that a whole bunch of artists haven’t been able to muster over the past three months: upend Morgan Wallen’s One Thing at a Time for the top spot. After 12 consecutive weeks at No. 1 and a flood of new releases relegated to runner-up chart placements, Wallen’s latest album finally cedes the floor this week — and for Swift, those circumstances make the achievement slightly more significant than usual.
Andrew Unterberger: Was it needed? Probably not. But part of the reason enduring superstars like Taylor Swift stay at their level is because they seize opportunities to make a splash when presented with them. With Swift already looking to give the chart momentum of the slowly climbing “Karma” an adrenaline shot, why not make the most of it and do a full new reissue (or two or three) and do what no other artist could the past three months — knock Morgan Wallen out of No. 1? It helps her historically in the record books, and it helps her stay winning in real time. And this year is all about winning for Taylor Swift.
2. While Midnights unseats Morgan Wallen at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, “Karma” comes up one spot of doing the same on the Hot 100, with its new Ice Spice-featuring remix propelling it to No. 2 but ultimately proving unable to unseat Wallen’s “Last Night.” If you’re Taylor Swift, is being denied the top spot there a disappointment – and do you think it still has a shot at hitting No. 1 later in its run?
Rania Aniftos: I can’t speak for how Taylor feels, because she’s probably got so many other things on her mind right now, but I personally am disappointed. I really thought this was going to be the song to knock Wallen off the No. 1 spot, but now I’m not sure it’s going to be able to climb to the top. At this point, if Taylor couldn’t do it, if Beyoncé and Kendrick Lamar’s “America Has a Problem” couldn’t do it, if Bad Bunny’s “Where She Goes” couldn’t do it, I don’t know what can.
Katie Atkinson: While it might be disappointing for Taylor, No. 2 is an impressive showing for an album cut that’s been out since November — and while Ice Spice is having a moment, she hasn’t yet scored a Hot 100 chart-topper, so her addition to a remix wasn’t a guaranteed rocket to No. 1. I think its chances to eventually top the Hot 100 rest almost entirely on airplay. If radio decides to play “Karma” half as much as it played “Anti-Hero,” it has a chance at the top, but it just couldn’t compete with the established success of “Last Night” this early.
Kyle Denis: For the simple fact that this remix was a clear play for No. 1, I think “Karma” missing the top spot is a disappointment. Between a new music video, three live performances with Ice at her New Jersey Eras Tour stops, and several interlocked controversies, “Karma” was clearly primed to be the next No. 1 hit from Midnights. The union of the world’s biggest pop star and hip-hop’s hottest new artist getting blocked by a song that’s several months old isn’t the best look. Then again, Midnights went back to No. 1, the Eras Tour is still a phenomenon, and Ice Spice picked up her third top five hit of the year, so it’s only a minor loss. And Taylor also has her fair share of No. 1 hits already, so I’m sure the disappointment — if there is any — doesn’t sting too badly.
Anything is possible, but I think “Karma” will have to settle for a No. 2 peak. The general consensus around the song feels pretty tepid, so I doubt it sticks around the upper regions of the Hot 100 for the rest of its run.
Jason Lipshutz: I do think “Karma” has a chance to hit No. 1 over the next few months, especially if it’s embraced by pop radio in the same way that “Anti-Hero” was in late 2022 and early 2023. The song zooming to No. 2 on the Hot 100 this week is a byproduct of the Ice Spice remix being unveiled, but even before the new version dropped, the song was steadily climbing the chart, aspiring to become the next big single from Midnights. Regardless of how well the remix performs, the original version and Ice Spice version will find audiences as Swift’s summer-song offering — and with their powers combined, may prove strong enough to take over the top of the Hot 100.
Andrew Unterberger: It’s probably a little disappointing for Swift given the lead-up — but it’s also not like The Weeknd’s “Die for You,” which was already inside the top 10 when it lept to No. 1, and added a superstar with chart-topping pedigree of her own (and established history with The Weeknd) in Ariana Grande. For “Karma” to jump from the 30s to No. 2, buoyed by an artist who’d never hit the Hot 100 at all before 2023, is still pretty impressive — and it could still get to No. 1 if Taylor wanted to give it the full “Anti-Hero” spread of remixes for sale. (That said, if this remix was a little better, I think it probably would’ve gotten there this week.)
3. The “Karma” remix isn’t the only new goodie helping movement for Midnights this week – there’s also an extra Lana Del Rey-ier version of “Snow on the Beach,” a full digital release for the previously physical-only bonus cut “Hits Different,” and a CD-only release for the previously unreleased “You’re Losing Me.” Are any of them significant new entries to the Midnights era to you, or all just fun but mostly frivolous extras?
Rania Aniftos: Besides “You’re Losing Me,” which feels particularly heartbreaking in the wake of Taylor’s split from Joe Alwyn, the other two additions are nothing special to me — only because I feel like there are other songs on the original Midnights that haven’t gotten the attention and praise they deserve. I desperately want a piano version of “Midnight Rain,” or a lesson in manifesting via a “Mastermind” music video, both of which could extend the success of the album.
Katie Atkinson: I really appreciate the fan service of the “More Lana Del Rey” version of “Snow on the Beach,” and I have a feeling it will replace the original on more than a few Swiftie playlists. Fans asked; Taylor listened. The other two are solid and clearly fit in with the Midnights vibe, but I don’t think Taylor made a mistake by leaving either off the core album last year.
Kyle Denis: For me, the Midnights Til Dawn goodies are forgettable. “Hits Different” is enjoyable but feels bland in comparison to the original album’s strongest tracks. If you’re someone who was aching for more Lana on “Snow on the Beach,” then the new version should satisfy you, but there simply isn’t enough of a difference between the two versions to justify a second Midnights purchase if you’re a casual listener. “You’re Losing Me” is the crown jewel of the Til Dawn additions, and it’s a shame that it’s not yet available on all platforms. None of the songs are significant new entries to the Midnights era, but, at least “You’re Losing Me” provides a bit of insight into the demise of Taylor’s relationship with Joe Alwyn.
Jason Lipshutz: “Hits Different” sounds like a surefire fan favorite, its shimmering guitar and fizzy emotion creating a sense of wanderlust that harkens back to Swift’s Red era. Maybe it won’t be an excavated deep cut-turned-hit single a la “All Too Well” or “Message in a Bottle,” but “Hits Different” contains a gravity that’s hard to dismiss, and a chorus that’s going to be belted out by Swifties in stadium parking lots for the rest of the Eras Tour. I’m already mad that I didn’t get to see it performed as the in-set acoustic track!
Andrew Unterberger: Title/main hook aside — c’mon with that, TS — I love “Hits Different,” and am kinda stunned it didn’t make the proper Midnights tracklist. Plus, “You’re Losing Me” is destined to become a key cut in the larger Taylor Mythology, and its heartbeat chorus is a for-sure stunner. The fact that Swift has songs like those in reserve as third-wave bonus tracks shows just how on top of her game she’s been during this whole era. All that said, I do still wish the “Karma” remix was a little stronger — it could’ve been a real moment.
4. Oh yeah, in the midst of all of this, we also have a Hot 100 re-entry from Swift that long pre-dates the Midnights era: Lover deep cut “Cruel Summer,” which hit the Hot 100 for the first time since Sept. 2019 last week, buoyed by recent TikTok virality, prime placement on the Eras Tour setlist and perhaps some crescendoing warm-weather appropriateness, and rises to No. 45 on the chart this week. Is there a chance “Cruel Summer” actually ends up blazing hotter than the rest of Taylor’s more contemporary jams this upcoming season, or do you think it cools off soon?
Rania Aniftos: Yes! The love for “Cruel Summer” has been building up for years and it’s now finally bubbling over. All it needs is something to propel it to the next level, perhaps an onstage collaboration, a remix or hopefully the overdue music video fans have been begging for ever since it came out.
Katie Atkinson: I would love a world where “Cruel Summer” becomes a late hit! It originally peaked at No. 29 on the Hot 100 but was never a Lover single. Imagine Swift’s four-year-old song becoming the 2023 Song of the Summer thanks to a seasonal surge. I’m going to put out in the universe that “Cruel Summer” will continue to blaze up the charts and become an unexpected top 20 hit this summer. Hell, maybe it will have a Mariah Carey “All I Want for Christmas Is You” moment and return to the charts every June.
Kyle Denis: I really hope that “Cruel Summer” is the next deep cut that rides TikTok virality to legitimate chart success; it’s one of Taylor’s best pop tracks. If handled correctly at radio and streaming, this could absolutely follow a similar trajectory to The Weeknd’s “Die For You” or Miguel’s “Sure Thing.” “Cruel Summer” has been a fan favorite since the night of Lover’s release, so it’s only right that it finally gets its day in the sun. Personally, I’m hoping we at least get some fun remixes out of this resurgence.
Jason Lipshutz: The answer is: it’s up to Taylor. If Swift puts her muscle behind “Cruel Summer” — a new remix? A viral moment? A TikTok on a particularly warm day? — then I could see the Lover track continuing to climb and overtake a current hit like “Karma.” Yet as the Ice Spice remix and other Til Dawn goodies suggested, Swift’s focus (understandably) remains on promoting her most recent project. “Cruel Summer” will always swoop back up in streams as we approach its titular season, but I doubt the song gets more lift than “Karma” unless Swift purposely wants it.
Andrew Unterberger: I wouldn’t bet against it. The song (which pretty much every Swiftie holds near and dear) has been climbing, climbing, climbing for months — years, maybe — and now that it’s finally crossed the threshold into official new-old hit territory, I can’t imagine it’s gonna slow down anytime soon. Once Swift has moved on from giving “Karma” her full push, I have to imagine “Cruel Summer” is next: As previously mentioned, she’s not the type to leave opportunities like this on the table, and she’s still got a month to kill before Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) officially takes over her promo life.
5. Between the weekly dispatches from the Eras Tour, the tabloid updates on her personal life, the chart entries new and old and the usual ubiquity that comes with being the biggest pop star on the planet, Taylor Swift is currently hitting a level of exposure that only a handful of artists in our lifetime have previously reached. Do you think she’s at risk of hitting an overexposure tipping point, or can she just kinda do no wrong in 2023?
Rania Aniftos: One thing about Taylor Swift is that we as a society can’t get enough of her. She’s been “overexposed” since she arrived on the scene and I think that adds to her appeal. To the world, Swift has been a superstar that is relatable because of her personal songs, and whether you love her or hate her, you’re invested in her life because she feels like someone from your hometown that made it big. She’s aware of her longevity no matter what happens in her career, and she even said it best herself in “Karma” when she sings, “Ask me why so many fade, but I’m still here.”
Katie Atkinson: I’m not exactly sure what overexposure looks like for Taylor Swift. She’s seemingly found her groove in delivering a steady stream of music to her insatiable fans and also picked up new fans along the way. And even though she’s playing three-plus nights at stadiums in cities across the country, there are still people struggling to get a ticket to her concerts. While it feels like she’s already bringing an impossible level of material to the world, people somehow still want more.
Kyle Denis: I think that the heated responses to the “Karma” remix and her whirlwind fling with Matty Healy were glimpses of what the tipping point looks like for Taylor. I think there was enough significant backlash to prove that she can do wrong in 2023, but she’s still big enough that her brand isn’t irreparably damaged. Seeing that she’s already starting to distance herself from Healy, it’s clear, to me, that Taylor is aware that she may have been flying too close to the sun.
Generally, between such a massive tour, an active album campaign, and yet another re-recording due next month, Taylor will remain at risk of overexposure until she completely steps away from the limelight for a bit. Although her work-centric approach to social media helps solidify some boundaries to counterbalance her ubiquity, the volatility of online discourse and attitudes will ensure overexposure remains a constant threat. Nonetheless, if there’s any pop star who can take on that challenge and come out alive, it’s probably Taylor Swift.
Jason Lipshutz: After 2022 was jam-packed with A-list album releases — Beyoncé, Harry Styles, Bad Bunny, SZA, Drake, Kendrick Lamar, and of course Swift, to name a few — this year has been relatively light on superstar activity, which has helped Swift dominate headlines and attention even though she hasn’t actually released much new music. That’s a testament to the gargantuan scale of the Eras tour, as well as how enormous Swift is right now in general. As the Eras tour winds down in the United States and we start getting word of some major releases for the second half of 2023, however, I’d predict that think some of that attention will naturally melt down. Or who knows? Maybe Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) conquers the world upon its release next month, and I’m totally off-base.
Andrew Unterberger: After proving herself on a commercial level all her own last year, Taylor Swift definitely seems to be viewing 2023 as a victory lap year — and she seems to be determined to make the most of it. And she should. This is what great pop stars do when they’re in their imperial phase (or in Swift’s case, her second or third imperial phase): They kinda do any and everything, knowing that as great as things are going for them at the moment, there’s no telling what the next year holds, and they should take advantage of that rare moment when the public’s thirst for them seems unquenchable. And maybe that’ll run out in 2024, but it doing so at any point in 2023 seems pretty unlikely right now.

Lil Durk has a big week on Billboard’s charts, as he lands 15 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 (dated June 10) from his new album, Almost Healed.
The set, released May 26 via Alamo Records, debuts at No. 1 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart and No. 3 on the Billboard 200 with 125,000 equivalent album units earned in its opening week (May 26-June 1), according to Luminate. It’s his sixth top 10 album on the Billboard 200, following Love Songs 4 the Streets 2 (No. 4 peak, 2019), Just Cause Y’all Waited 2 (No. 2, 2020), The Voice (No. 2, 2020), The Voice of the Heroes, with Lil Baby (No. 1, 2021), and 7220 (No. 1, 2022).
Of Lil Durk’s 15 entries on the latest Hot 100, three land in the top 40, led by the album’s lead single “All My Life,” featuring J. Cole, at No. 4, up from No. 7, after it debuted at its No. 2 high two weeks earlier. Here’s a recap.

Kodak BlackNo. 82, “Before Fajr”No. 83, “B12”No. 86, “You Got Em”
Lil Durk charts at least 15 songs on the Hot 100 in a single week for a third time in his career. On the June 19, 2021, chart, he contributed 19 songs, the bulk from The Voice of the Heroes, in its debut chart week. On the March 26, 2022, tally, he posted 17 songs on the Hot 100, largely from 7220, as the set likewise made its chart start.
With 14 debuts, Lil Durk ups his career total to 87 Hot 100 entries. Of those, 15 have charted in 2023, the third-most among all acts this year, after only Morgan Wallen (39) and SZA (16).
Meanwhile, thanks to his guest appearance on “Big Dawg,” Chief Wuk scores his first appearance on the Hot 100. As for the other featured artists on Lil Durk’s new Hot 100 hits, Future increases his total to 162 entries, the fifth-best total in the chart’s history; 21 Savage pushes his total to 80; the late Juice WRLD’s count rises to 78; Wallen now has 63 entries – as he extends his record for the most among core male country acts; and Kodak Black now boasts 41.
Marshmello claims his first No. 1 on Billboard’s Latin Airplay chart with the Manuel Turizo collab “El Merengue,” which advances to the summit of the list dated June 10.
“El Merengue” jumps from No. 2 despite a 5% dip in audience impressions, to 10.4 million, earned in the U.S. in the week ending June 1, according to Luminate. It ousts Grupo Frontera and Bad Bunny’s “Un x100to” after its three-week command, sending it to No. 2, likewise with a decline on weekly impressions (falls 11% to 10.36 million).
As “Merengue” tops Latin Airplay, Marshmello becomes the first artist unfamiliar to the Latin genre to occupy the top slot in 2023. Congolese French singer and rapper Gims (born Gandhi Alimasi Djuna) last completed the deed as “Arhbo (Music From The FIFA World Cup Quatar 2022),” with Ozuna, took over Latin Airplay for three weeks last December.
Further “Merengue” is just the second tropical tune to lead the overall tally this year, after Romeo Santos and Rosalia’s “El Pañuelo” headed the Feb. 25-dated ranking.
Turizo, meanwhile, cements his airplay No. 1 growth with six champs spanning almost six years. Previously, the Colombian topped Latin Airplay with another tropical track: “La Bachata” (one week in October 2022).
Beyond its Latin Airplay coronation, “Merengue” wins a second term at its No. 5 high on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs in its 13th week in the top 10, encompassing its entire run in the chart so far.
Bad Bunny Keeps Going
Elsewhere on the Latin charts, Bad Bunny collects his 28th top 10 on Latin Rhythm Airplay as “Where She Goes” soars 20-9, the biggest climb in 2023 so far. The song flies with an 88% gain in audience impressions, to 4 million, during the same period, the biggest percentage increase of the week.
As “Goes” enters the upper region on Latin Rhythm Airplay, Bad Bunny picks up his 28th top 10, the eight-most since the chart launched in 2005.
The song also makes its first chart visit on Latin Airplay, at No. 26.
Over on Latin Streaming Songs, “Goes” holds at its No. 2 high despite a 30% dip in weekly streams. It logged 16.3 million official U.S. streams, 7 million less than the week prior. That yields a 7-3 tumble on the overall Streaming Songs list.
Taylor Swift furthers her record run as the top musical act in the United States, holding at No. 1 on the Artist 100 chart (dated June 10) for a 68th week, thanks to two new deluxe editions and a new color vinyl variant of her latest album, Midnights.

The set returns to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, for a sixth total week on top, with 282,000 equivalent album units earned (up 389%) May 26-June 1, according to Luminate. The sum is the second biggest in a single week in 2023, after only the opening frame of Morgan Wallen’s One Thing at a Time (501,000; it dips to No. 2 after spending its first 12 weeks on the chart at No. 1). Midnights earned 1.578 million units when it debuted in November 2022.
On May 26, Swift released a new deluxe edition of Midnights, dubbed The Til Dawn Edition. The 23-track set includes the original standard album’s 13 tracks, plus the seven bonus songs from the previously released The 3am Edition and three bonus tunes: “Hits Different,” which was previously available only on the Target-exclusive CD edition of the standard edition of Midnights; a new version of the standard album’s “Snow on the Beach” featuring Lana Del Rey; and a remix of “Karma” adding Ice Spice as a featured artist.
The same day, the set’s The Late Night Edition arrived. The 21-track release contains the original standard album’s 13 tracks, plus five of the seven bonus tracks from The 3am Edition and three bonus songs: as noted above, the new versions of “Snow on the Beach” and “Karma,” along with a previously unreleased track, “You’re Losing Me (From the Vault).”
Plus, the standard Midnights vinyl album was reissued in a new color vinyl variant May 26, in “Love Potion” purple.
In total, Swift places nine albums on the Billboard 200, all contributing to her Artist 100 chart standing: Midnights (No. 1), Lover (No. 6), 1989 (No. 11), Folklore (No. 13), Reputation (No. 18), Red (Taylor’s Version) (No. 20), Evermore (No. 35), Fearless (Taylor’s Version) (No. 39) and Speak Now (No. 45).
Swift also tallies five songs on the latest Billboard Hot 100: “Karma,” now featuring Ice Spice, vaults 27-2 (surpassing its previous No. 9 peak), former eight-week leader “Anti-Hero” rises 12-11, “Hits Different” debuts at No. 27, “Snow on the Beach” re-enters at No. 30 and her 2019 Lover track “Cruel Summer” pushes 49-45, after it re-entered a week earlier.
Elsewhere on the Artist 100, Lil Durk rockets 46-3, thanks to his new LP, Almost Healed. The set debuts at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 (125,000 units), while 15 of its tracks land on the Hot 100, led by “All My Life” featuring J. Cole at No. 4.
The Artist 100 measures artist activity across key metrics of music consumption, blending album and track sales, radio airplay and streaming to provide a weekly multi-dimensional ranking of artist popularity.

Hot weather plus nostalgia makes for a potent mix(tape). In order to aid your festive flashbacks, we analyzed the Billboard Hot 100 chart for each year dating back to the chart’s 1958 launch. Here’s the definitive list of the top 10 jams each summer that pumped out of your stereo most between Memorial Day and Labor Day.These hot tunes are ranked based on each track’s performance on the Billboard Hot 100 chart during the summer. For the period through 1991, prior to the advent of Luminate radio monitoring and point-of-sales data, the rankings are based on an inverse point system, with weeks at No. 1 earning the greatest value and weeks at lower ranks earning less. For the years corresponding with Luminate data tabulation, 1992 onward, the rankings are based on accumulated radio and sales points, and points from other data sets, including streaming, included in the Hot 100 during those years.
