Over 40 years after cranking out her first Hot 100-charting hit, 1983’s ‘Holiday,’ Pop icon Madonna hasn’t taken a vacation from loading Billboard history books with a slew of stats that remain unrivaled – a status she seems poised to extend with the ongoing success of her latest single, ‘Popular.’Details inside…
While reports have surfaced The Weeknd’s controversial series, ‘The Idol,’ has officially gotten chopped from the HBO roster after just one season, songs from its official soundtrack – namely the Madonna and Playboi Carti-assisted ‘Popular’ – have far from gotten axed from leading digital download and streaming playlists.
In fact, the Metro Boomin & Mike Dean-produced bop – which made history with its #43 debut – appears at #62 on the updated Hot 100 in its 12th week of charting.
Here are the numbers that powered its placement.
– Streaming ≈ 4.4 million U.S.-based streams
– Radio Airplay ≈ 15.5 million audience impressions
– Digital Downloads ≈ 400 sold
And although Madge has managed multiple chart placements over the last 15 years thanks to hits from her ‘MDNA’ (2012) and ‘Rebel Heart’ (2015) albums, fans of the Pop Queen know the last time she reigned aboard the hitlist for as long was in 2008 when she clocked into the top 5 with ‘4 Minutes (featuring Justin Timberlake)’ – the Timbaland-produced lead single from her 11th studio album ‘Hard Candy.’
The sweet news comes less than 2 weeks after Madonna celebrated her 65th birthday, following news she was gearing up to toast her unparalleled discography on the globe-trotting ‘Celebration Tour.’
