Taylor Swift & Post Malone’s ‘Fortnight’ Spends a Second Week at No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100
Taylor Swift’s “Fortnight,” featuring Post Malone, notches a second week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart (fittingly given its title).
A week earlier, Swift made history by infusing the Hot 100’s top 14 positions, all from her new Republic Records LP, The Tortured Poets Department, which concurrently adds a second week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. Swift claims three Hot 100 top 10s in the set’s second chart frame, with “Fortnight” joined by “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” at No. 9 and “Down Bad” at No. 10.
Plus, three acts soar to their first top five Hot 100 appearances: Tommy Richman’s “Million Dollar Baby” debuts at No. 2; Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” bounds 27-3, after it began at No. 36 two weeks earlier; and Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso” surges 22-4, two weeks after it entered the chart at No. 7, becoming her first top 10.
The Hot 100 blends all-genre U.S. streaming (official audio and official video), radio airplay and sales data, the lattermost metric reflecting purchases of physical singles and digital tracks from full-service digital music retailers; digital singles sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites are excluded from chart calculations. All charts (dated May 11, 2024) will update on Billboard.com tomorrow, May 7. For all chart news, you can follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram.
