ROSÉ and Bruno Mars’ “APT.” becomes the first No. 1 on Billboard’s Pop Airplay chart by an act prominent in K-pop (Korean pop), as it jumps three spots to the top of the latest, Feb. 1-dated survey.
A week earlier, the song surpassed BTS’ “Dynamite,” which peaked at No. 5 on the radio ranking in December 2020, as the highest charting such Pop Airplay hit. “Dynamite” remains the only top five hit on the tally by a K-pop group.
“APT.,” on The Black Label/Atlantic Records, marks the first Pop Airplay chart entry for ROSÉ as a soloist; star K-pop quartet BLACKPINK has charted two tracks (reaching a No. 21 best) with her as a member.

Mars, meanwhile, earns his 11th Pop Airplay No. 1 — one-upping Justin Bieber for the most among male soloists since the chart began in October 1992. Overall, Taylor Swift boasts a record 13 leaders, followed by Maroon 5, Mars, Katy Perry and Rihanna with 11 each, and Bieber and Ariana Grande with 10 each.

Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart ranks the top-selling albums of the week based only on traditional album sales. The chart’s history dates back to May 25, 1991, the first week Billboard began tabulating charts with electronically monitored piece count information from SoundScan, now Luminate. Pure album sales were the sole measurement utilized by the Billboard 200 albums chart through the list dated Dec. 6, 2014, after which that chart switched to a methodology that blends album sales with track equivalent album (TEA) units and streaming equivalent album (SEA) units.
Tremonti’s The End Will Show Us How sold nearly 7,000 copies in its first week, landing the band its best sales week since 2018. The album was led by the radio single “Just Too Much,” which climbs 31-26 on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart (dated Jan. 25), making it the highest-charting hit ever on the chart for the band. The group has logged seven entries on the radio tally in total.
At No. 1 on Top Album Sales, Taylor Swift’s reissued Lover: Live From Paris reenters atop the list with 202,500 copies sold – largely from vinyl purchases. It’s the 15th No. 1 for Swift on the chart – the most in the chart’s 33-year history.
The Wicked film soundtrack is a non-mover at No. 2 with 12,000 (down 23%) and Chappell Roan’s chart-topping The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess moves 5-3 with 11,000 (up 28%).
Heidi Montag’s 2010 album Superficial surges onto the chart at No. 4 with 11,000 copies sold (up from a negligible sum the previous week). After Montag and husband Spencer Pratt lost their home in the Pacific Palisades wildfire in Los Angeles, the pair took to social media to encourage fans to purchase the album and stream its songs to help the family rebuild and generate income. The couple are best known for the appearances on reality TV programs, most famously on MTV’s The Hills.
Stray Kids’ former leader HOP falls 3-5 with 10,000 sold (down 24%) and Sabrina Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet slides 4-6 with 9,000 (down 5%).
Ringo Starr lands his first top 10 on the Top Album Sales chart with the No. 7 debut of Look Up, selling 8,000 copies. It also grants The Beatles’ drummer with his second top 40-charting effort (and highest yet) on Top Country Albums.
Rounding out the rest of the latest top 10 are Bad Bunny’s Debí Tirar Más Fotos, falling 6-8 in its second week with nearly 8,000 (down 3%) and Billie Eilish’s Hit Me Hard and Soft, slipping 7-9 with nearly 7,000 (down 5%).
Mrs. GREEN APPLE’s “Lilac” continues to rule the Billboard Japan Hot 100 for the fifth week, on the chart dated Jan. 22.
Downloads, streams and video views for the Oblivion Battery opener are down to 67%, 89%, and 95%, respectively, compared to the week before, but karaoke is up to 104%. The track holds at the top spot for the third consecutive week and for fifth time in total, with a huge lead over the track at No. 2 and below.
At No. 2 is Rosé & Bruno Mars’ “APT,.” also holding for the third week. While the track is slowing down in downloads, streams and video, it gained slightly in radio and karaoke.

In other chart moves, a number of rapper Chanmina’s tracks have climbed the Japan Hot 100 again, due to the final judging of the audition project she’s producing, No No Girls, airing on Jan. 11. “Harenchi” came in at No. 51 and “Never Grow Up” at No. 79. Also, after the movie 366 Days hit domestic theaters on Jan. 10, the song the story was inspired by, HY’s “366 Days,” has returned at No. 84.

This week: Performers at President Trump’s second inauguration are up in sales but static in streams, Hozier takes over streaming with a new-old cover and a couple generation-separated indie singer-songwriters go viral for very different songs.
Inauguration Performances Spur Modest Sales Gains (But Streaming Dips) for Carrie Underwood, Nelly & More
The presidential inauguration of Donald Trump on Monday (Jan. 20) included multiple events with a variety of musical performances — many of which earned criticism from fans of artists aligning themselves with Trump’s return to the U.S. presidency, as well as statements by those artists defending their appearances. Chief among them were Carrie Underwood, who sang “America the Beautiful” after Trump delivered his inaugural address, and Nelly, who performed at the Liberty Inaugural Ball.
Trending on Billboard
Although both the former American Idol winner and the St. Louis rapper made headlines for their performances connected to the inauguration, neither experienced much movement in their daily streaming totals as a result. Underwood’s catalog earned 1.46 million U.S. on-demand streams on Monday, down nearly 6% from the previous Monday (1.55 million on Jan. 13), according to Luminate. Nelly’s streaming catalog was also down 5%, from 1.63 million on Jan. 13 to 1.54 million on Inauguration Day. However, both artists experienced upticks in digital sales those days, with Underwood and Nelly moving a couple hundred extra daily downloads (although still posting fewer than 1,000 downloads for the day).
So how did a more politically outspoken performer fare? Kid Rock, a longtime Trump supporter who played a rally at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C. the night before the inauguration, posted the slightest uptick in catalog streams on Inauguration Day (1.08 million, up from 1.07 million the previous Monday), as well as comparable gains in digital sales as Underwood and Nelly. – JASON LIPSHUTZ
Fans ‘Wanna Know’ About Hozier’s 2014 Arctic Monkeys Cover
It feels like a fever dream of mid-’10s Tumblr alt-rock: Hozier, singer-songwriter behind one of the biggest and best-loved alt-rock hits of 2014, covering one of the year’s other biggest and best-loved hits in Arctic Monkeys’ “Do I Wanna Know.” The Irish crossover star did indeed do just that a decade ago, with a sweetly tender BBC Live Lounge rendition of the stomping late-night staple. Hozier’s version was never released as a single, but it did make an appearance on the special edition of his self-titled debut album, released in 2015.
Now, the song has taken on new life, as Hozier fans – who have multiplied in number over the past decade, especially following the release of his Hot 100-topping “Too Sweet” last year – have rediscovered the yearning cover, making it go viral all across social media, and on YouTube where the 10-year-old performance clip currently rates as one of the channel’s top 50 videos. The cover has particularly exploded over the last five days, amassing over 1.4 million combined official on-demand U.S. streams, up 3,941% from the same period the previous week, according to Luminate. And of course, the Arctic Monkeys original is feeling the spillover love too: The U.K. band’s original “Do I Wanna Know” racked up 3.5 million streams for the week ending Jan. 16, up 44% from the prior frame. – ANDREW UNTERBERGER
Beabadoobee’s ‘Real Man’ Becomes Her Latest Viral Hit
Beabadoobee has spent the past half-decade successfully braiding traditional indie-pop album releases and promotion with viral moments, as songs like her Powfu collaboration “Death Bed (Coffee for Your Head)” and her own “The Perfect Pair” have earned hundreds of millions of streams after blowing up with the TikTok set. The British singer-songwriter has now done it again with “Real Man,” the smoky, piano-laced standout from last year’s full-length This is How Tomorrow Moves.
The chorus line of “I guess no one ever taught you how to be a real man” has inspired a flex-inflected TikTok dance and wave of lip synchs, helping “Real Man” break through on streaming platforms. A month ago, the track earned 1.84 million U.S. on-demand streams for the week ending Dec. 26, according to Luminate; that number has now nearly doubled, to 3.67 million for the week ending Jan. 16. Meanwhile, “The Perfect Pair,” which went viral back in 2022, is going viral again (re-viraling?) thanks to “Real Man” listeners discovering the older track, with 3.68 million streams for the week ending Jan. 16 — up nearly 30% from a month ago. – JL
Julie Doiron Sets Her Calendar for a Surprise Viral Hit
A breakout hit would’ve been something close to unforeseeable for Julie Doiron even at the peak of her ‘90s hipness. The Canadian lo-fi indie singer-songwriter (and bassist for underground favorites Eric’s Trip) had never made significant impact on the Billboard charts during her now three-decade recording career, releasing a consistent stream of well-received albums but never really even threatening a crossover moment. That’s changed in the last couple months, however, as Doiron has scored one of the surprise streaming hits of the early year: “August 10,” from 1996’s Broken Girl.
The slow, sad and still determinedly un-pop ballad has taken off on TikTok – not due to any particular trend or synch or influencer endorsement, but just through a series of popular recreations (of both Doiron’s vocals and her bare-bones guitar playing) and emotional videos set to the pleading verse. The striking song has hit enough of a nerve – seasonal sadness, perhaps – that it has exploded to over four million official on-demand U.S. streams in the week ending Jan. 16, according to Luminate, part of a steady climb that’s seen the song rise a little every week going back to last November. The streaming activity has even powered the song to a debut on Billboard’s Hot Rock Songs listing, reaching a No. 12 peak. If it’s doing this well in January, imagine what might happen when we actually get to August. – AU

Bad Bunny, “DtMF” (Rimas): It’s been a triumphant week for Bad Bunny on the Billboard 200, as the Puerto Rican superstar has topped the chart with his new album Debí Tirar Mas Fotos, a personal album largely inspired by the salsa and plena music of his home territory. Though the album debuted at No. 2 – behind Lil Baby’s WHAM – thanks in large part to the set’s release on a Sunday, already two days into the chart tracking week, it climbs to No. 1 this week with 203,500 equivalent album units earned in the U.S., according to Luminate, a staggering number for any album’s second week, showing how many people were still discovering the album following its unusually timed drop.
Bunny would no doubt love to have the same thing happen with the set’s near-title track, “DtMF,” on the Billboard Hot 100. Despite appearing as the album’s penultimate track – number 16 out of 17 — and being something of a departure from Bad Bunny’s usual Latin trap-and-reggaetón-led sound, the song has exploded on streaming services, with fans attaching to its singalong chorus and sentimental lyrics, particularly on TikTok. It’s now pretty clearly the set’s biggest breakout hit, leaping from No. 38 all the way to No. 2 on this week’s Hot 100.
Trending on Billboard
The song’s explosive growth on streaming seems to be settling down a bit in its third week, though it continues to lead on both Apple Music’s real-time chart and Spotify’s Daily Top Songs USA chart. What really might get in the way of it getting over the top on the Hot 100 is radio airplay: While the song is now being promoted to radio, its airplay has been fairly minimal so far, as the song still trails three other tracks on Fotos, led by advance single “El Clúb.” It’s hard to imagine the unconventionally structured, entirely Spanish-language song ever becoming a major fixture on U.S. top 40, but Bad Bunny might need at least a little radio love to edge out some of the radio-friendlier songs it’s going to be in competition with in the weeks to come – particularly the song currently topping the chart.
Lady Gaga & Bruno Mars, “Die With a Smile” (Streamline/Interscope/Atlantic/ICLG): Like Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” in 2024, the chances looked dicey at first for Lady Gaga & Bruno Mars’ “Die With a Smile” to ever get to No. 1 – but now that it’s finally there, it might be sticking around for a little while. The song spends its third frame on top of the chart this week, while actually gaining in both streaming and sales, and remains in the top three of all three Hot 100 component charts: Radio Songs, Digital Song Sales and Streaming Songs.
That combination could make “Smile” tough to unseat on the Hot 100 in the weeks to come. The song is even challenging to finally take over the No. 1 spot on Radio Songs – which would be its first week atop the listing, with “A Bar Song” having reigned for the past 25 weeks (one week away from tying The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights” for the longest stay atop the chart). And if you’re looking for your early frontrunner for No. 1 on the 2025 year-end Hot 100, it’s gotta be Gaga and Bruno – an honor the latter hasn’t won since the Mark Ronson-led “Uptown Funk!” in 2015, and which the former has still yet to capture in her illustrious pop career.
ROSÉ & Bruno Mars, “APT.” (Atlantic): Bruno Mars’ biggest competition for all-platform pop dominance this early year might of course come from himself. “APT.,” his collaboration with K-pop star and BLACKPINK alum ROSÉ, was already well on its way to breakout smash status in late 2024, and has only continued to grow well into 2025, reaching the Hot 100’s top five – proof not only of ROSÉ’s rising solo star in the U.S., but of Mars’ status as perhaps the single-most can’t-miss pop hitmaker on the entire planet right now.
“APT.” leads on the Digital Song Sales chart for the first time this week, while slipping to No. 9 on Streaming Songs and climbing to No. 11 (after having previously peaked at No. 10) on Radio Songs. The latter chart of course remains its biggest opportunity for growth, as the song is not only challenging for top 10 again on the all-format Radio Songs, but for the No. 1 spot on Pop Airplay. If the song’s streaming performance settles a little in the weeks to come while it continues to spread out on the airwaves, we could very easily see a Bruno vs. Bruno battle at the top of the Hot 100 in the not-too-distant future.

Bad Bunny reaches No. 1 on Billboard’s Streaming Songs chart for the second time as “DtMF” soars 27-1 in its second week, topping the Jan. 25-dated tally.
In its first full tracking week of data (Jan. 10-16; the song was released alongside the rest of Bad Bunny’s new album Debí Tirar Más Fotos on Jan. 5), “DtMF” earned 34.9 million official U.S. streams, according to Luminate.
“DtMF” is the second song in a row to rise to, rather than debut at, No. 1, following preceding leader “Die With a Smile” by Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars, which first reigned on the Jan. 11 list following the end of the holiday season.
Bad Bunny notches his second No. 1 on the survey; “Me Porto Bonito,” with Chencho Corleone, led for two weeks in 2022.
Between “Me Porto Bonito” and “DtMF,” Bad Bunny’s best on the chart had been “Monaco,” which debuted and peaked at No. 2 on the Oct. 28, 2023-dated ranking.
Music from Debí Tirar Más Fotos occupies Streaming Songs’ entire top two and four of its top 10; “Baile Inolvidable” follows at No. 2 (26.7 million streams), and then comes “Nuevayol” (No. 4, 23.5 million streams) and “Voy a Llevarte Pa PR” (No. 6, 19 million streams).
In all, the 17-song album – which concurrently ranks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, as previously reported – occupies 17 spots on the 50-position chart, all the way down to No. 47, with “Lo Que Le Paso a Hawaii” (9.1 million streams).
The reign of “DtMF” on Streaming Songs was preceded by its No. 1 debut on the TikTok Billboard Top 50 dated Jan. 18, spurred by edits featuring the song set to photos and videos of passed-on loved ones.
“DtMF” also leaps 38-2 on the multimetric Billboard Hot 100, also garnering 2,000 downloads in addition to its streams. On Hot Latin Songs, it’s Bad Bunny’s 16th No. 1 and takes over from “Nuevayol,” which had debuted at No. 1 the previous week.
Nearly a decade after its release, Supa King’s “Tell on Me” is No. 1 on the TikTok Billboard Top 50, debuting atop the Jan. 25-dated survey.

“Tell On Me” marks rapper Supa King’s first appearance on a Billboard chart and the second No. 1 debut in a row, following Bad Bunny’s “DtMF,” which topped the Jan. 18 ranking and appears at No. 2 on the latest tally.

The 2016 track from that year’s SKBP, Vol. 1 reigns thanks to a trend in which users dance to the song’s “tell on me” chorus often while doing so in strange positions, whether seemingly dangling from the ceiling, from the wall or in other acrobatic postures, often in a bathroom (understandably: many of the top-performing clips feature a disclaimer noting that “participating in this activity could result in you or others getting hurt”).
“Tell On Me” concurrently earned 717,000 official U.S. streams in the week ending Jan. 16, up from a negligible amount the previous frame, according to Luminate.
Its No. 1 predecessor “DtMF,” meanwhile, continues to thrive via TikTok clips highlighting the song’s sentiment of wishing one had taken more photos and given more hugs and kisses to a loved one who’s no longer with them. “DtMF” vaults to No. 1 on the Hot Latin Songs chart and to No. 2 on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100.
Though “Tell On Me” is the only debut within the chart’s top 10, it’s far from the only newcomer. In all, six of the top 10 reach the region for the first time, with “Tell On Me” followed by Sage the Gemini’s “Gas Pedal,” which vaults 13-3 in its second week.
Released in 2013 and featuring Iamsu!, “Gas Pedal” was Sage the Gemini’s top-charting song as a lead artist on the Hot 100 in its time, peaking at No. 29 in September 2013. With lyrics that begin with “slow down, grab the wall, wiggle like you’re tryna make your ass fall off,” the song seems practically tailormade for an app like TikTok in retrospect, and over a decade later, “Gas Pedal” rises thanks to a dance trend (though a new one, rather than anything featured in, say, the original’s music video in 2013).
“Gas Pedal” sports a 52% increase in streams to 1.3 million in the week ending Jan. 16.
Another song that debuted on the Jan. 18 TikTok Billboard Top 50, So Supa, Tre Loaded and Big Boogie’s “Dumb Crasy,” also jumps into the top 10, shooting 34-5. Though newer than “Gas Pedal,” “Dumb Crasy” isn’t exactly brand new, having been released in June 2023.
“Dumb Crasy” benefits from a trend on TikTok in which one user (the cameraperson) pushes another person, who then does a quick dance, usually in response to a prompt related to something they like (“what would you do for some McDonald’s fries,” “when our least-favorite teacher is absent,” etc.).
The song is up 174% to 297,000 streams in the week ending Jan. 16. It’s So Supa and Tre Loaded’s first appearance on any Billboard chart.
SZA’s Kendrick Lamar collaboration “30 for 30” jumps into the top 10 for the first time, rising 17-7 in its third week on the list. From SZA’s deluxe version of SOS, SOS Deluxe: Lana, released Dec. 20, “30 for 30” is viral on TikTok by highlighting Lamar’s “But if it’s f–k me then f–k you/ And that’s the way I like it” lyric.
“30 for 30” appears at No. 26 on the latest Hot 100 (its peak so far is No. 22), garnering 14.2 million streams, 9.5 million radio audience impressions and 1,000 downloads in the week ending Jan. 16.
Sexyy Red’s “She’s Back” and Neton Vega’s “Loco” are the final two TikTok Billboard Top 50 top 10 newcomers, ranking at Nos. 8 and 10, respectively. “She’s Back” leaps back onto the ranking after referencing TikTok’s return in the U.S. following its brief service outage (the app was removed late Jan. 18, citing a law banning it in the U.S., but returned the next day, with President Donald Trump signing an executive order on Jan. 20 temporarily pausing the ban). “Loco,” meanwhile, caps a four-week rise to the top 10, with its trends including one where creators write comments about themselves or about love and relationships, often with a city skyline passing them by.
