Megan Thee Stallion has a #1 hit on her hands.
The “Savage” remix featuring Beyoncé takes the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 this week — making it Megan’s first and Beyoncé’s 7th #1 hit.
via Billboard:
Beyoncé is the second artist to have topped the Hot 100 in the 2000s, ’10s and ’20s, following Mariah Carey, who, with “All I Want for Christmas Is You” in January, became the first artist to have ranked at No. 1 in four distinct decades (1990s, 2000s, ’10s and ’20s).
Beyoncé becomes the 21st artist with at least seven Hot 100 No. 1s. Here is a recap of her leaders:
Title, Date Reached No. 1
“Crazy in Love,” feat. Jay-Z, July 12, 2003
“Baby Boy,” feat. Sean Paul, Oct. 4, 2003
“Check On It,” feat. Slim Thug, Feb. 4, 2006
“Irreplaceable,” Dec. 16, 2006
“Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It),” Dec. 13, 2008
“Perfect,” Ed Sheeran feat. Beyoncé, Dec. 23, 2017
“Savage,” Megan Thee Stallion feat. Beyoncé, May 30, 2020
Of course, Beyoncé also appeared at No. 1 on the Hot 100 as a member of Destiny’s Child, which notched four leaders in 1999-2001: “Bills, Bills, Bills” (1999); “Say My Name” (2000); “Independent Women Part I” (2000); and “Bootylicious” (2001).
Looking at both group and solo chart appearances, Beyoncé is the only act other than Carey to have ranked at No. 1 on the Hot 100 in four separate decades.
Congrats ladies!
