Rankings for the Top TV Songs chart are based on song and show data provided by Tunefind and ranked using a formula blending that data with sales and streaming information tracked by Luminate during the corresponding period of February 2025.
Bryan boasts a previous ruler on Top TV Songs via the November 2022 ranking with “Something in the Orange” from Fire Country, also a CBS property.

This time, Bryan’s “Oklahoma Smokeshow,” a No. 72-peaking song on the Billboard Hot 100 from 2022’s American Heartbreak, pops up in the Feb. 23 episode of Tracker (the 10th episode of season two), begetting 18 million official on-demand U.S. streams and 1,000 downloads in February 2025 in the process, according to Luminate.
Bryan leads the latest Top TV Songs ranking over a slew of songs from the third season of Showtime’s Yellowjackets, whose first two episodes premiered on Feb. 16, followed by episode three on Feb. 23.
Candlebox’s “Far Behind” leads the charge, debuting at No. 2 thanks to 7.2 million streams and 1,000 downloads in February after an appearance in the second episode, while Bush’s “Glycerine” follows at No. 3 (5.9 million streams, 1,000 downloads) following its synch in the premiere.
The ’90s flavor doesn’t extend to the rest of Yellowjackets’ charting songs, though. The series also represents the 1980s with Tiffany’s cover of “I Think We’re Alone Now” (No. 8; 2.7 million streams, 1,000 downloads) and the ‘70s with Cat Stevens’ “Morning Has Broken” (No. 10; 1.3 million streams, 1,000 downloads).
Of the group, “I Think We’re Alone Now” was a two-week No. 1 on the Hot 100 in 1987, though all four reached the top 30.

“Khe?” is the most heard song among Latin-formatted radio stations thanks to a 5% bump in audience impressions, equating to 7.9 million earned in the U.S. during the March 14-20 tracking week, according to Luminate.
Trending on Billboard
The song reigns over previous No. 1 “El Amor de Mi Vida” by Carín León, which drops to No. 8 with a 22% dip in impressions.
“Khe?” is Rauw Alejandro and Romeo Santos’ first collab, and, coincidentally, their first No. 1 on Latin Airplay since 2023. While Rauw Alejandro last led through “Party,” with Bad Bunny, the Santos’ previous coronation arrived via another team-up, “El Pañuelo,” with Rosalía. The two leaders were only two weeks away from each other.
For Santos, while “Khe?” puts him in a tie with Wisin (22) for the ninth-most champs overall since Latin Airplay began in 1994, the new coronation expands his already-established No. 1 record among tropical acts –way ahead of his next competitor, Prince Royce, who has achieved 17 No. 1s to date.
Before “Khe?” topped the Latin Airplay chart, Rauw’s No. 1 album Cosa Nuestra delivered the No. 23-peaking “Touching The Sky” (Aug. 2024), while “Tú Con Él” landed at No. 7 and “Qué Pasaría,” with Bad Bunny, reached No. 3 high on the Feb. 15- and the March 8-dated charts, respectively.

Concurrently, “The Giver” roars onto the all-genre Billboard Hot 100 at No. 5. It’s Chappell Roan’s third top 10, following “Good Luck, Babe!,” which hit No. 4 last September, and “Pink Pony Club,” which reached No. 7 a week ago; it ranks at No. 9 on the latest list. “The Giver” marks her first top 10 (or even top 40) debut on the Hot 100.
“The Giver” was shipped to country radio by Universal Group Nashville’s MCA Records. Of the song’s airplay in the tracking week, 20% was from reporters to Billboard’s Country Airplay chart; it debuts at No. 33 on the Adult Pop Airplay tally and is bubbling under Pop Airplay and Country Airplay.

(The latter song went on to reign for a record 50 weeks.)
“I have such a special place in my heart for country music,” the Missouri native shared on Instagram March 4. “I grew up listening to it every morning and afternoon on my school bus and had it swirling around me at bonfires, grocery stores and karaoke bars … I am just here to twirl and do a little gay yodel for yall.”

The Billboard 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.” rises from No. 2 on Global Excl. U.S. with 76.7 million streams (down 3% week-over-week) and 6,000 sold (down 12%) outside the U.S. March 14-20.
“Die With a Smile” drops to No. 2 after 11 weeks atop Global Excl. U.S. beginning last September; Doechii’s “Anxiety” jumps 7-3 for a new high; JENNIE’s “like JENNIE” backtracks to No. 4 from its No. 3 best; and Billie Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” falls 4-5, after three weeks on top in August.
Playboi Carti’s “Evil J0rdan” debuts at No. 6 on Global Excl. U.S., led by 36.8 million streams outside the U.S. The rapper adds his fourth top 10 on the chart.
“Die With a Smile” continues atop the Global 200 with 102.1 million streams (down 12%) and 8,000 (down 19%) worldwide. At 13 weeks, the song ties for the third-longest No. 1 run since the chart began, matching Miley Cyrus’ “Flowers.” The only hits to lead longer: Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You” (19 weeks) and Harry Styles’ “As It Was” (15).
Notably, “Die With a Smile” has drawn more than 100 million streams worldwide each week since the Global 200 chart dated Sept. 14, upping its record total on the latest list to 29 such weeks.
“APT.” holds at No. 2 on the Global 200, following 12 weeks at No. 1 starting in November, and Doechii’s “Anxiety” ascends 6-3 for a new best.
Playboi Carti’s “Evil J0rdan” and “Rather Lie,” featuring The Weeknd, debut at Nos. 4 and 6 on the Global 200 with 67.1 million and 54.1 million U.S. streams worldwide, respectively. Playboi Carti pushes his career count to six top 10s on the chart and The Weeknd to 15.
Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s “Luther” descends to No. 5 from its No. 3 Global 200 high.
Plus, Chappell Roan’s country track “The Giver” moseys onto the Global 200 at No. 10 with 40 million streams and 8,000 sold worldwide March 14-20, following its March 13 release. The singer-songwriter earns her second top 10, after “Good Luck, Babe!” hit No. 5 in September.

Basketball player-turned-rapper GELO earns his first No. 1 on a Billboard radio chart as “Tweaker” shoots from No. 3 to rule the Rhythmic Airplay list dated March 29. The track, released on Born to Ball/Def Jam and promoted by REPUBLIC, extends the musical breakthrough season for the rapper, born LiAngelo Ball.
The 26-year-old traveled an unusual route to Billboard’s charts, having first generated attention through with his brothers, Lonzo and LaMelo, for their on-court ability in high school. After graduating, LiAngelo played in international divisions and the NBA’s G-League and Summer League series; his siblings are active players in the NBA.
Back to his current gig – “Tweaker” takes over Rhythmic Airplay as the most-played song on U.S. panel-contributing rhythmic radio stations in the tracking week of March 14-20, according to Luminate. The single enjoyed a 7% increase in plays during the tracking week compared with the week prior. Knoxville, Tenn.’s WKHT-FM registered the most plays in the period, with Honolulu’s KPHW-FM and Greenville, S.C.’s WHZT-FM landing in second and third place, respectively.

As “Tweaker” rises, GELO wraps, perhaps temporarily, a dominant stretch for Kendrick Lamar at the Rhythmic Airplay summit. Lamar ruled for the last seven weeks through a combination of three songs – “TV Off,” featuring Lefty Gunplay, for four frames, and two SZA collaborations: “Luther” (one week) and “30 for 30” (two weeks).
The debut single for GELO, “Tweaker” began generating attention in late December of 2024 after the rapper previewed a snippet on a livestream hosted by N3on. The single was officially released on Jan. 3 and erupted into a viral sensation, with several rappers praising the track while athletes and sports teams adopted it as a soundtrack for locker room anthems and other celebratory posts across social media. Thanks to the attention, the song clocked 12.4 million official U.S. streams in its first week and debuted at No. 29 on the Billboard Hot 100. (It ranks at No. 62 on the latest published chart, dated March 22).
Elsewhere, “Tweaker” holds at No. 7 on the plays-based Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart, where it reached a No. 6 best, after a 3% loss in plays for the tracking week. It likewise repeats at its No. 7 peak on the audience-based R&B/Hip-Airplay chart for a third consecutive week, despite slipping to 9.3 million in audience impressions, down 3%.
Meanwhile, GELO’s follow-up single, “Can You Please?,” with GloRilla, is showing favorable momentum as it seeks its first radio charts. Although it remains below the cutoffs for this week’s Rhythmic Airplay and Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay, the new cut soars 112% in plays and 75% in plays at the respective formats in the latest tracking week.
All charts dated March 29 will update on Billboard.com on Tuesday, March 25.

Also in the top 10 of the new Billboard 200, LE SSERAFIM collects its fourth top 10-charting project, as 5th Mini Album HOT debuts at No. 9.
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. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. The new March 29, 2025-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on March 25. For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram.
Of MUSIC’s 298,000 first-week equivalent album units, SEA units comprise 283,000 (equaling 284 million on-demand official streams of the 30 songs on the streaming edition of the album; it debuts at No. 1 on the Top Streaming Albums chart), album sales comprise 14,500 (it debuts at No. 3 on Top Album Sales) and TEA units comprise 500.
With 298,000 units earned in its first week, MUSIC lands the biggest week in 2025 for a rap album, and the second largest overall among all albums — only the debut of The Weeknd’s Hurry Up Tomorrow was bigger so far this year, when it launched with 490,000 units (Feb. 15 chart). Further, as MUSIC’s songs tallied 384 million on-demand official streams combined, that marks the biggest streaming week for any album in nearly a year, since Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department collected 428.54 million clicks for its songs in its second week (May 11, 2024, chart). MUSIC nets the largest streaming week for any rap album since Drake’s For All the Dogs debuted with 514.01 million (Oct. 21, 2023, chart).
MUSIC was officially announced on Sept. 12, 2024, and went up for pre-order the same day. However, the set’s March 14 release date wasn’t announced until just two days before its arrival (March 12).
MUSIC debuts on the Billboard 200 largely from streaming activity, as it was available to purchase only as a digital download — as a widely available standard 30-song set, as well as three variants exclusive to the artist’s official webstore (the variants each have between one or two bonus tracks).
MUSIC will be issued on CD (across at least eight variants available to pre-order in his webstore) in the coming weeks. The album will also profit in the future from sales generated by an array of deluxe boxed sets (containing branded merch and a CD) that have been available to pre-order on his webstore since last September.
Lady Gaga’s MAYHEM falls to No. 2 in its second week on the Billboard 200, earning 74,000 equivalent album units (down 66%). The next six titles on the list are all former No. 1s. Kendrick Lamar’s GNX drops 2-3 (71,000; down 13%), PARTYNEXTDOOR and Drake’s $ome $exy $ongs 4 U dips 3-4 (66,000; down 15%), SZA’s SOS slips 4-5 (62,000; down 9%), Sabrina Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet is steady at No. 6 (57,000; down 7%), Tate McRae’s So Close To What falls 5-7 (52,000; down 18%) and Bad Bunny’s Debí Tirar Más Fotos is a non-mover at No. 8 (50,000; down 4%).
LE SSERAFIM collects its fourth top 10-charting effort on the Billboard 200 as 5th Mini Album HOT starts at No. 9 with 45,500 equivalent album units earned. Of that sum, album sales comprise 38,500 (it debuts at No. 1 on Top Album Sales), SEA units comprise 7,000 (equaling 9.42 million on-demand streams of the five songs on the streaming edition of the album) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum. Sales of the set were bolstered by its availability across more than 20 CD variants (all containing collectible paper ephemera, some randomized).
Rounding out the top 10 of the latest Billboard 200 is Morgan Wallen’s former No. 1 One Thing at a Time, which falls 9-10 with 42,000 equivalent album units earned (down 3%).

The Kendrick Lamar parade atop Billboard’s Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart extends for another week, as “30 for 30,” the rapper’s collaboration with SZA, rallies 5-1 to crown the list dated March 29. The track replaces Lamar’s two-week leader “TV Off,” featuring Lefty Gunplay, which itself captured the summit from Lamar and SZA’s other active radio-promoted single, “Luther.” By linking three successive No. 1s, Lamar becomes only the fourth artist to achieve the feat in the 31-year history of the radio ranking.
“30 for 30” surges to No. 1 as the most played song on U.S. panel-contributing mainstream R&B/hip-hop radio stations in the tracking week of March 14-20, according to Luminate. The song added 14% more plays in the latest tracking window compared to the prior week; the swell gives “30 for 30” the chart’s weekly Greatest Gainer honor, awarded to the song with the largest play increase. Southern stations led the final push, with four of the five stations that recorded the most “30 for 30” plays this week — WQBT-FM (Savannah, Ga.), WHXT-FM (Columbia, S.C.) WHZT-FM (Montgomery, Ala.) and WZGB-FM (Louisville, Ky.) — from the region.
