Shaboozey’s ‘Bar Song’ spends 17th week at No. 1; Tyler has top album

Nothing seems to top ‘A Bar Song (Tipsy)’ from the top of the Billboard Hot 100. Shaboozey’s hit is now in its 17th week at No. 1 and broke a few records in achieving that goal, with another crucial one about to be toppled.

One record newly set, according to Billboard, is that “Bar Song” now has the highest number of weeks at No. 1 on the Hot 100 by an artist without accompanying guest appearances.

Expanding the field to all songs, the Shaboozey song’s 17 weeks at the top now trails only the 19 weeks captured by Lil Nas X and Billy Ray Cyrus’ collaboration on “Old Town Road.” If “Bar Song” can hold on for three more weeks, it will break the last record yet to be broken.

The other record breaking this week, ‘A Bar Song’, marks the most weeks at No. 1 of any song in this decade… since ‘Old Town Road’ had its runaway hit in 2019. Shaboozey accomplished that this week by to surpass the 16 weeks that Morgan Wallen spent at the top last year with ‘Last Night’.

It didn’t hurt Shaboozey’s ability to stay on top that there were no new releases that could make an impact big enough to even debut in the top 10 of the Hot 100 this week. And last week’s numbers 2 to 4 also kept exactly the same places this week: ‘Die With a Smile’ by Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars in second place, followed by ‘Birds of a Feather’ by Billie Eilish and Sabrina Timmermans “Espresso.”

The rest of the top 10 also includes many familiar songs, with Teddy Swims’ “Lose Control” moving up just one spot to No. 5 (giving the long-running song its first Top 5 placement since April). It switches places with Post Malone and Wallen’s ‘I Had Some Help’, dropping one spot to No. 6. Rounding out the top 10 are Benson Boone’s ‘Beautiful Things’, Wallen’s ‘Love Somebody’ and Wallen’s ‘Sticky’ Tyler, the Creator. ”, featuring GloRilla, Sexxy Redd and Lil Wayne. Last week, that Tyler song debuted at No. 14, and it moves up to No. 10 this frame, even as two other songs of his that previously debuted in the top 10 fell away.

On the album chart, things are only slightly less static. Tyler. The creator’s ‘Chromakopia’ spent a second week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with 160,000 equivalent album units, down 47% from the blockbuster that opened a week earlier.

Two albums had big openings: Lil Uzi Vert’s ‘Eternal Atake 2’ was at No. 3 with 59,000 copies, and The Cure’s ‘Songs of a Lost World’ was at No. 4 with 57,000 copies. Lil Uzi Vert is used to this kind of action, but The Cure hadn’t had an album debut in the top 10 in over twenty years.

A holdover in the top 10 includes Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘Short n’ Sweet’, which climbed one spot to No. 2 with 68,000 units. Also on the rise again is Gracie Abrams’ ‘The Secret of Us’, up two places to number 5 thanks to a deluxe edition containing a rapidly rising single.

Chappell’s debut Roan moved up six spots to No. 6 after her much-discussed “SNL” performance. Eilish jumps a few spots to number 7 with her album, followed by Rod Wave, Taylor Swift and Wallen.
