“I’m grateful to God for the opportunity to experience this new life and feel the love of radio” Crespo tells Billboard upon his first top 10 since 2019. “Being back and sharing a song with an artist like Jerry Rivera is an honor that fills me with emotion, due to the respect and admiration I have for him. Without a doubt, this new chapter begins in an incredible way.”

“Nuestra Canción” debuts at No. 10 on Tropical Airplay with 2 million audience impressions registered in the U.S. during the March 7-13 tracking week, according to Luminate. It gives Crepo his first top 10 since 2019 and 34th overall.
For Rivera, the collab brings rewarding results. He achieves his third top 10 so far in 2025. Previously, “Te Buscare” peaked at No. 8 in February. Meanwhile, “Volver a Enamorarnos” matches his previous best at No. 8 high and meets “Nuestra Canción” in this week’s top 10. Overall, the Puerto Rican amasses 35 top 10s spanning four decades of career entries, dating back to his first top 10, “Me Estoy Enloqueciendo Por Ti” in 1994. (No. 2 high).
The New York-born, Puerto Rican-raised vocalist first came to prominence with the 1999 hit “Suavemente,” which held strong at the summit on Tropical Airplay for nine consecutive weeks then. That same year, he broke the barriers as one of merengue’s most successful singer-songwriters, placing two other radio top 10s, including the five-week ruler “Tu Sonrisa.”
Crespo followed suit in 1999, positioning four other songs on the tally. While he spent one week at No. 1 with “El Cuerpo Me Pide” with Victor Manuelle, seven-week champ “Píntame” earned him a first Grammy for best merengue performance that same year.
Among those four ranked Tropical Airplay songs, “Nuestra Canción,” composed by Homero D’ Rodríguez, took him to a No. 17 high in April 1999. The song was the fourth single from Crespo’s debut studio album Suavemente, his first No. 1 on Top Latin Albums, which also gave him his first appearance on the all-genre Billboard 200 in 1999, where it remained for 43 weeks.
The new version of “Nuestra Canción” is composed by Crespo and Francisco “Pulpo” Barbosa. It has already become a new favorite across tropical stations. The song will become available across digital platforms on March 20 as announced by Crespo on TikTok.
While Crespo’s resurgence on Tropical Airplay earns him a 35th top 10 overall, Rivera enters a tie with Prince Royce for the fourth-most top 10s since the tally launched in 1994, both with 35 top 10s. They trail only Victor Manuelle (65 top 10s), Marc Anthony (57) and Gilberto Santa Rosa (37).
Crespo’s new achievement sets as the Puerto Rican prepares for his Poeta Herío Tour, which begins at the Coliseo de Puerto Rico on June 21.

This week (on charts dated March 22, 2025), Zeds Dead, Lady Gaga, GT_Ofice, David Guetta and others achieve new milestones. Check out key movers below.
Zeds Dead
The Canadian electronic duo hits Billboard’s Top Dance Albums chart for the first time in nearly a decade thanks to its new album, Return to the Spectrum of Intergalactic Happiness. Released March 7 via the act’s Deadbeats label, the set debuts at No. 14 with 4,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. its opening week, according to Luminate. The pair last appeared on the chart in November 2016 with its No. 6-peaking Northern Lights. Zeds Dead has charted four additional projects on the ranking, including the top 10 Somewhere Else (No. 4 peak, 2014).
Plus, Zeds Dead’s “One of These Mornings” reenters the Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart at No. 21, boosted by the new album’s release. The track debuted at its No. 15 high in February, becoming the pair’s highest charting entry. – XANDER ZELLNER

Lady Gaga
As previously reported, the superstar has a monster week on Billboard’s charts thanks to her new album, MAYHEM. The set soars in at No. 1 on both the Billboard 200 and Top Dance Albums charts with 219,000 units. It becomes her seventh No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and her record-breaking eighth leader on Top Dance Albums, as she passes Louie DeVito for the most in the chart’s 24-year history. Notably, her 2008 debut, The Fame, has spent a record 193 weeks at No. 1.
Gaga also charts nine songs from MAYHEM on the Hot Dance/Pop Songs chart, including seven in the top 10. “Abracadabra” rules the ranking for a fourth week. –X.Z.
GT_Ofice
GT_Ofice earns his first leader on a Billboard chart as “Someone Else” ascends a spot to No. 1 on Dance/Mix Show Airplay. The DJ-producer (real name Caine Sheppard; the first three letters of his moniker stand for “good times only”) has charted four songs — all self-released– dating to 2023, reaching a previous No. 26 peak with “Every Thought of You” (with ALWZ SNNY). He also hit No. 30 with his other sole-billed entry, “Never Together.”
“Someone Else” is receiving support on stations including Pulse Radio in San Francisco (more than 850 plays to date, according to Mediabase), Pulse 87 (Hudson Valley, N.Y.; 600 plays) and Revolution 93.5 (Miami; 550 plays). “Dance radio has helped introduce me to listeners who might not be in the club or festival scene,” GT_Ofice says. “I generally mix poppy vocals with dance pop beats. My sound is just a little different.” –GARY TRUST
David Guetta & Sia
Both artists return to the top 10 of Hot Dance/Electronic Songs with their new collaboration, “Beautiful People.” Released March 7, the song debuts at No. 8 with 1.2 million U.S. official streams earns in its opening week. It earns Guetta his 26th career top 10, the second-most in the chart’s history, after Kygo’s 27, and Sia her sixth. It’s also Guetta’s record-extending 94th overall entry. The song concurrently starts at No. 30 on Dance/Mix Show Airplay.
“Beautiful People” marks the latest charted collaboration between Guetta and Sia. The pair previously appeared together on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs (which began in 2013) with “She Wolf (Falling to Pieces)” (No. 8 peak in 2013); “Bang My Head,” also with Fetty Wap (No. 5, 2016); “Flames” (No. 9, 2018); “Let’s Love” (No. 9, 2020); and “Floating Through Space” (No. 11, 2021). They first linked up for the smash “Titanium,” which hit No. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2011. –X.Z.
Frank Walker & Alexander Stewart
The pair’s single “Crossfire” rises 13-10 on Dance/Mix Show Airplay, reaching the top 10 thanks to a 9% gain in spins. Walker adds his fourth top 10 and first since “I Go Dancing” (with Ella Henderson), which spent a week at No. 1 in 2023. Stewart scores his second top 10, and overall entry, after his team-up with Two Friends, “Wrong Way,” which spent a week at No. 1 in November. –X.Z.
First released in 2019, Doechii’s “Anxiety” blasts onto the Billboard Hot 100 (dated March 22) at No. 13, thanks to its wide release at last, sparked by a 2023 reworking of the song and a new viral surge (with an assist by Will Smith and Tatyana Ali).
The song by the rapper-singer — who is set to receive the 2025 Woman of the Year award at the annual Billboard Women in Music celebration March 29 — enters with 20.6 million official U.S. streams, a 289% vault week-over-week, March 7-13, according to Luminate. Her highest charting Hot 100 hit also becomes her first top 10 on Streaming Songs (No. 5 debut), the Billboard Global 200 (No. 6) and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. (No. 7). It drew 56.9 million streams and sold 9,000 worldwide in the tracking week.
With “Anxiety” then available only on YouTube, Brooklyn rapper Sleepy Hallow co-opted its hook for the chorus of his own “A N X I E T Y.” Billed to Sleepy Hallow featuring Doechii, the 2023 release has experienced a TikTok-led surge in recent weeks, as users have soundtracked the “A N X I E T Y” chorus to a scene of Smith and Ali dancing in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, the Smith-led sitcom that aired on NBC in 1990-96. “A N X I E T Y” debuted on the March 15-dated Hot 100 at No. 45 and ranks at No. 59 in its second week with 8.7 million streams. It also garnered 29.6 million streams worldwide March 7-13.
Trending on Billboard
The new attention for “A N X I E T Y” sent fans to Doechii’s solo, YouTube-only version, prompting the rapper-singer to release her original “Anxiety” wide on DSPs and digital retailers on March 4, triggering its arrival on March 22-dated charts following the first full week of its greater availability.
Notably, “Anxiety” and “A N X I E T Y” prominently sample Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used to Know” (featuring Kimbra), the smash that topped the Hot 100 for eight weeks in 2012 and went on to win two Grammy Awards, including record of the year. That hit jumped by 20% to 16.5 million global streams in the week ending March 13. It also makes the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs chart at No. 9 with 5.1 million U.S. streams (up 17%). Still in rotation at multiple radio formats, it additionally logged 3.9 million in airplay audience (up 16%).
Meanwhile, Doechii accomplishes the rare double of appearing on the Hot 100 with two versions of a song simultaneously. (Generally, mixes of a current release roll up into one entry for chart purposes, although in certain cases, such as an act being billed as a lead on one version and a featured artist on another, they remain separate.) In 2009, for example, Jay-Z and Alicia Keys’ “Empire State of Mind” ruled the Hot 100 for five weeks. Amid its 30-week run, her solo ballad version — “Empire State of Mind (Part II) Broken Down” — spent a week on the chart, at No. 55, in January 2010.
Further back, in 1990, the Righteous Brothers charted concurrent versions of their classic “Unchained Melody,” originally a No. 4 hit in 1965. Its synch in the blockbuster film Ghost scared up new love for the ballad, sending the original version back to a No. 13 high. With that single available at the time only on vinyl, the duo released a new recording of it (on a different label) as a cassette single, which hit No. 19.
Lady Gaga is back with a monster week on Billboard’s charts, thanks to her new album, MAYHEM.
The set blasts in at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with 219,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. in its opening week (March 7-13), according to Luminate — the biggest weekly sum for an album by a woman this year.
MAYHEM earns Gaga her seventh career Billboard 200 No. 1, tying her with Janet Jackson for the fifth-most among women in the chart’s history (which dates to 1956). Taylor Swift leads with 14, followed by Barbra Streisand (11), Madonna (nine) and Beyoncé (eight).

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.
“Die With a Smile” leads the Global 200 with 116.9 million streams (up 4%) and 9,000 sold (up 17%) worldwide March 7-13.
Nos. 2-4 on the Global 200 hold in place, with ROSÉ and Mars’ “APT.” at No. 2, after 12 weeks at No. 1 starting in November; Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s “Luther” at its No. 3 high; and Lamar’s “Not Like Us” at No. 4, following four weeks at No. 1 beginning last May.
JENNIE’s “like JENNIE” soars in at No. 5 on the Global 200 with 68.4 million streams and 6,000 sold worldwide. The BLACKPINK member adds her fourth solo top 10 on the chart; the group has likewise collected four top 10s, while fellow members LISA (three top 10s), ROSÉ (two) and Jisoo (one) have also hit the tier as soloists.
Also in the Global 200’s top 10, Doechii’s “Anxiety” bounds in at No. 6 with 56.9 million streams and 9,000 sold, becoming her first top 10. The history of the song – recorded in 2019 – is winding: When it was available only via YouTube, Sleepy Hallow co-opted its hook for the chorus of his own “A N X I E T Y”; billed to Sleepy Hallow featuring Doechii, it was released in 2023. The update experienced a TikTok-led revival in recent weeks, as users have soundtracked the “A N X I E T Y” chorus to a scene of Will Smith and Tatyana Ali dancing from an episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, the Smith-led sitcom that aired on NBC in 1990-96. “A N X I E T Y” falls 21-27 in its second week on the Global 200, led by 29.6 million streams worldwide (down 2%).
Meanwhile, the new attention for “A N X I E T Y” sent fans to Doechii’s solo, YouTube-only version, prompting the rapper/singer to release her original “Anxiety” wide to digital and streaming retailers on March 4. Her version debuts on the Global 200 following the first full tracking week (March 7-13) reflecting its wider release (and split consumption options with Sleepy Hallow’s take, which, as noted above, dips slightly in streams).
Additionally, “Anxiety” and “A N X I E T Y” prominently sample Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used To Know” (featuring Kimbra), the 2012 smash that topped the Billboard Hot 100 for eight weeks, was that year’s No. 1 Hot 100 song and went on to win two Grammy Awards, including record of the year. That hit vaults 191-130 on the Global 200, up 20% to 16.5 million streams and 27% to 1,000 sold worldwide in the tracking week.
On Global Excl. U.S., “Die With a Smile” rises 2-1 with 92.3 million streams (up 2%) and 4,000 sold (up 17%) outside the U.S. March 7-13.
“APT.” descends to No. 2 after a record 17 weeks atop Global Excl. U.S. beginning in November.
JENNIE’s “like JENNIE” enters Global Excl. U.S. at No. 3 with 61.5 million streams and 4,000 sold outside the U.S. She achieves her fifth solo top 10 on the chart – surpassing the four top 10s that BLACKPINK and the group’s LISA as a soloist have each notched; ROSÉ boasts two solo top 10s and Jisoo, one.
Billie Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” holds at No. 4 on Global Excl. U.S., after three weeks on top last August, and Gaga’s “Abracadabra” magically reappears in the top five (8-5), after reaching No. 4.
Plus, Doechii’s “Anxiety” debuts as her first Global Excl. U.S. top 10 at No. 7, with 36.9 million streams and 4,000 sold outside the U.S.

In total, MAYHEM is Gaga’s 11th top 10-charting effort, stretching back to her debut project, The Fame, which reached No. 2 in 2010, after bowing on the list in 2008.

Also in the top 10 of the latest Billboard 200, JENNIE’s debut solo album, Ruby, bows at No. 7 on the Billboard 200. She’s the third member of the chart-topping quartet BLACKPINK to notch a solo top 10 – and all three have come in the last three months.
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 22, 2025-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on March 18. For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram.
Of MAYHEM’s 219,000 first-week equivalent album units, album sales comprise 136,000 (it’s the top-selling album of the week and debuts at No. 1 on Top Album Sales), SEA units comprise 80,500 (equaling 108.05 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs; Gaga’s biggest streaming week ever, and it debuts at No. 1 on the Top Streaming Albums chart) and TEA units comprise 2,500.
With MAYHEM’s bow of 219,000 equivalent album units, the set earns the biggest week for a woman in 2025, and the largest debut by a woman in over six months. The last larger bow by a woman was Sabrina Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet, which started with 362,000 atop the Sept. 7, 2024-dated list.
MAYHEM was officially announced on Jan. 27 and went up for pre-order that same day. The set was released on March 7 and was preceded by a trio of top 40-charting titles on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart: “Disease” (reaching No. 27 in November 2024), “Die With a Smile” (No. 1 for five weeks beginning in January; a duet with Bruno Mars), and “Abracadabra” (No. 13 in February).
Gaga ushered in the album’s release with an interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe (March 5), participated in a livestreamed Little Monsters Press Conference presented by Spotify (March 6), and did double duty as the host and musical guest on NBC’s Saturday Night Live (March 8, performing “Abracadabra” and the new album’s “Killah”). Gaga also popped up and/or performed on numerous other programs in the lead up to the album’s release, including the livestreamed FireAid benefit concert (Jan. 30), CBS’ broadcast of the Grammy Awards (Feb. 2), First We Feast’s Hot Ones (Feb. 13), NBC and Peacock’s Saturday Night Live 50th Anniversary Homecoming Concert (Feb. 16), and Vanity Fair’s lie detector test series (Feb. 19).
MAYHEM’s first-week sales were bolstered by its availability across a gaggle of editions: 14 vinyl variants (some signed, and some include the bonus track “Can’t Stop the High,” while Target’s exclusive vinyl has the extra track “Kill for Love”), four CD editions (one signed, Target’s exclusive CD adds “Kill” while Gaga’s webstore carried a CD with the bonus track “Can’t Stop the High”), a cassette tape, a deluxe CD box set with a branded T-shirt and poster, and two widely available download albums (the standard 14-song album, and then a deluxe version exclusive to iTunes with the three music videos for “Disease,” “Die With a Smile” and “Abracadabra”).
Of MAYHEM’s opening-week sales, vinyl purchases comprise 74,000 — Gaga’s biggest week on vinyl ever.
Gaga will soon hit the road for a series of major concerts, beginning with her headlining turn at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival (April 11 and 18), two shows in Mexico City (April 26-27), a free show on Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro (May 3) and four shows in Singapore (May 18, 19, 21 and 24).
Kendrick Lamar’s GNX falls to No. 2 on the latest Billboard 200 with a little more than 81,000 equivalent album units earned (down 10%), while five more former leaders round out the top six. PARTYNEXTDOOR and Drake’s $ome $exy $ongs 4 U dips 2-3 (79,000; down 13%), SZA’s SOS is steady at No. 4 (69,000; down 7%), Tate McRae’s So Close To What descends 3-5 (63,000; down 27%), and Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet falls 5-6 (61,000; down 5%).
JENNIE’s first solo studio album, Ruby, arrives at No. 7 on the new Billboard 200, marking the BLACKPINK member’s first chart entry. The set launches with 56,000 equivalent album units earned. Of that sum, SEA units comprise 29,000 (equaling 39.93 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs; it debuts at No. 13 on Top Streaming Albums), album sales comprise 26,500 (it debuts at No. 2 on Top Album Sales) and TEA units comprise 500.
Ruby was preceded by three charting titles on the Hot 100 songs chart: “Mantra,” “Love Hangover” (with Dominic Fike) and “ExtraL” (with Doechii).
Ruby was available in its first week as a nine-track widely available digital download album, and then an expanded 15-song physical set and a 15-track download and streaming edition. While the standard and physical albums have only one guest star (FKJ, on “JANE”), the 15-track download and streaming edition adds further special guests on a few tracks, including Doechii, Dua Lipa, Dominic Fike, Childish Gambino and Kali Uchis.
Ruby’s first-week sales were aided by its availability across four CD variants (all containing collectible paper ephemera, some randomized), five deluxe CD boxed set editions (each containing a piece of branded clothing, a signed insert and a copy of the album) and two download editions (a widely available standard version with nine tracks and an expanded 15-song edition).
JENNIE is a member of the Billboard 200-topping quartet BLACKPINK, who saw its last album, BORN PINK, debut atop the chart dated Oct. 1, 2022, after the act’s The Album became its first top 10 (No. 2, 2020). JENNIE is the third member of the group to notch a top 10-charting solo effort on the Billboard 200, following LISA, whose Alter Ego debuted at No. 7 a week ago (March 15 chart), and ROSÉ, whose rosie debuted and peaked at No. 3 on the Dec. 21, 2024, chart.
Rounding out the top 10 of the latest Billboard 200, Bad Bunny’s chart-topping Debí Tirar Más Fotos falls 6-8 (52,000 equivalent album units; down 8%), Morgan Wallen’s former leader One Thing at a Time is a non-mover at No. 9 (43,000; up 3%), and Chappell Roan’s The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess dips 8-10 (42,000; down 1%).

Jelly Roll’s “Liar” rules Billboard’s Country Airplay chart for a fifth consecutive week, becoming his sole longest-leading hit.
The song tops the list dated March 22 with 31 million audience impressions (down 5%) March 7-13, according to Luminate. The Nashville native co-authored it with Ashley Gorley, Ben Johnson and Taylor Phillips. It was produced by Zach Crowell. The track is from his studio set Beautifully Broken, which arrived as his first No. 1 on both Top Country Albums and the all-genre Billboard 200 last October.
“Liar” breaks out of a tie with “Need a Favor,” which led for four weeks starting in August 2023, for Jelly Roll’s longest Country Airplay command. “I Am Not Okay” is next, having logged three frames on top beginning last November. All seven of his entries have hit No. 1, with four tallying double-digit dominations; additionally, “Save Me,” with Lainey Wilson, led for two frames in December 2023.
“This is truly incredible. I want to thank everyone on my promotion team, the label, and to everyone who has listened to ‘Liar’ and this entire Beautifully Broken record,” Jelly Roll tells Billboard. “Y’all have changed my life. Ben, Ashley and Taylor, y’all are all incredible — thank you for writing this one with me. Five weeks? This is just unreal.”
