Ariana Grande's 'Thank U, Next' Returns to No. 1 On Hot 100 With Biggest Streaming Week Ever For a Woman

12/10/2018 by Gary Trust

 

Ariana Grande's "Thank U, Next" tops the Billboard Hot 100 (dated Dec. 15), returning for a fourth week at No. 1 following the Nov. 30 arrival of its retro-2000s-themed official video.

 

The song reigns in large part due to its 93.8 million U.S. streams in the week ending Dec. 6, according to Nielsen Music, the biggest weekly total ever for a song by a female artist. It passes the 84.5 million that Taylor Swift's "Look What You Made Me Do" logged in its first week (as reflected on charts dated Sept. 16, 2017).

 

"Next" debuted atop the Nov. 17-dated Hot 100 and spent its first three weeks at No. 1 before falling to No. 2 a week ago.

 

Plus, Meek Mill earns his first Hot 100 top 10, as "Going Bad" blasts in at No. 6. For featured artist Drake, the track is his 33rd top 10, extending his record for the most among solo males.

 

Meanwhile, Mariah Carey's 1994 holiday classic "All I Want for Christmas Is You" jingles 14-7 for a new Hot 100 high. The song hit the top 10 for the first time last holiday season, reaching No. 9.

 

Record streams: Grande's "Next," released on Republic Records, rebounds to the Hot 100's summit with a 121 percent gain to 93.8 million U.S. streams in the week ending Dec. 6, encompassing the first full tracking week for its official video. On the Streaming Songs chart, the song reigns for a fifth week.

 

"Next," whose official clip broke 24-hour views records on YouTube and Vevo following its arrival, boasts the best streaming week ever for a song by a woman and the seventh-biggest sum overall:

 

Total Weekly U.S. Streams, Title, Artist, Chart Date

116.1 million, "In My Feelings," Drake, July 28, 2018

106.2 million, "In My Feelings," Drake, Aug. 4, 2018

103.1 million, "Harlem Shake," Baauer, March 2, 2013

101.7 million, "God's Plan," Drake, March 3, 2018

97.6 million, "Harlem Shake," Baauer, March 9, 2013

95.4 million, "In My Feelings," Drake, Aug. 11, 2018

93.8 million, "Thank U, Next," Ariana Grande, Dec. 15, 2018

92.8 million, "God's Plan," Drake, March 10, 2018

92.7 million, "In My Feelings," Drake, Aug. 18, 2018

84.5 million, "Look What You Made Me Do," Taylor Swift, Sept. 16, 2017

 

"Next" jumps 5-2 on the Digital Song Sales chart with a 146 percent burst to 43,000 downloads sold in the week ending Dec. 6. On Radio Songs, it zooms 23-11 (57 million audience impressions, up 44 percent).

 

"Next" sweeps the Hot 100's Greatest Gainer awards for all metrics (streaming, sales and airplay). It's the first song to claim all three titles at No. 1 since Drake's "In My Feelings," which tripled up atop the charts dated July 21 and 28, powered heavily at the time by the "In My Feelings" viral challenge. Before that, Drake's own "God's Plan" took all three trophies at No. 1 (on March 3) following the arrival of its official video.

 

"Hello" to a four-week No. 1 by a female: "Next" is the first four-week Hot 100 No. 1 by a female artist in a lead role in over two years, since Sia's "Cheap Thrills" (featuring Sean Paul), which led for four weeks in August 2016. Earlier that year (beginning March 5), Rihanna's "Work" (featuring Drake) dominated for nine frames.

 

"Next" is the longest-leading Hot 100 No. 1 by a woman with no accompanying artists since Adele's "Hello," which ruled for 10 weeks starting Nov. 14, 2015.

 

"Next" controls the Hot 100 with nearly a 2-to-1 points lead over Travis Scott's "Sicko Mode," which last week became his first No. 1 on the chart. The latter track dips to No. 2, although it gains in all metrics, holding at No. 2 on Streaming Songs (43.3 million, up 16 percent); backtracking 2-3 on Digital Song Sales (25,000, up 5 percent); and bulleting at No. 8 on Radio Songs (65.7 million, up 1 percent).

 

The track, on which prominent guest vocalist Drake does not officially receive an artist billing, leads the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Rap Songs charts for a seventh week each.

 

Halsey's "Without Me" hits a new Hot 100 peak, pushing 4-3. It paces Digital Song Sales for a third week (50,000, up 75 percent) and rises 6-4 on Streaming Songs (32.7 million, up 29 percent) and 9-6 on Radio Songs (71.7 million, up 10 percent).

 

Marshmello and Bastille's "Happier" retreats to No. 4 after reaching its No. 3 Hot 100 high, as it tops Hot Dance/Electronic Songs for a 12th week, and Panic! at the Disco's "High Hopes" holds at its No. 5 Hot 100 peak, while ruling Hot Rock Songs for a sixth week. Panic posts its first No. 1 on the Pop Songs airplay chart with "Hopes" (2-1); the act had hit a previous No. 2 Pop Songs high with "I Write Sins Not Tragedies" in 2006.

 

Meek Mill notches his first Hot 100 top 10, as "Going Bad," featuring Drake, bows at No. 6. The track is from the former's new album Championships, the rapper's first full-length since his April release from prison. "Bad" begins at No. 3 on Streaming Songs (36 million U.S. streams) and No. 6 on Digital Song Sales (17,000).

 

Among his prior 29 Hot 100 entries, dating to his 2011 debut, Meek Mill had previously peaked as high as No. 21, with "All Eyes on You," featuring Chris Brown and Nicki Minaj, in 2015. His only other top 40 hit until this week: "R.I.C.O.," featuring Drake, also in 2015.

 

As for Drake, he collects his 33rd Hot 100 top 10, extending his record for the most among solo males. Among all acts, only Madonna (38) and The Beatles (34) have more. Below Drake are Rihanna (31 top 10s), Michael Jackson (30) and Carey and Stevie Wonder (28 each).

 

Drake also extends his record for the most Hot 100 top 10s in a single year to 13. In October, when he posted his 12th top 10 of 2018, Bad Bunny's "MIA," on which he's featured, Drake bested The Beatles for the yearly mark.

 

Speaking of Carey's 28 top 10s..."All I Want for Christmas Is You" dashes 14-7 on the Hot 100 for a new high, topping its prior No. 9 best reached a year ago when it entered the top 10 for the first time. The song tops the Holiday 100 chart (for a 32nd of 37 total weeks since the chart launched in 2011) and is the top seasonal hit in all metrics; it keeps at No. 8 on Streaming Songs (28.5 million, up 29 percent) and No. 9 on Digital Song Sales (15,000, up 28 percent) and ascends 41-32 on Radio Songs (30.4 million, up 11 percent).

 

Rounding out the Hot 100's top 10, Kodak Black's No. 2-peaking "Zeze," featuring Scott and Offset, retreats 7-8; Lil Baby and Gunna's "Drip Too Hard" drops 8-9, after peaking at No. 4; and Sheck Wes' "Mo Bamba" falls to No. 10 from its No. 6 high.

Mariah seems destined to eventually reach #1 (maybe), the Christmas re-entries seem to be doing better every year since they've been allowed.

 

King Drake's name dragging even mediocre Meek Mill tracks into top 10 relevance *.* Closing in fast on that Glee Cast record ~

The best news is that all the 6ix9ine tracks somehow missed the top 40 entirely (aside from 'FEFE' last week)! His midweek release and the influx of Christmas songs really helped make a difference there.
was Last Christmas simply ineligible originally or did it receive no push?
Billboard published an article about it hitting the top 40:

As for why it didn't chart on the Hot 100 upon its original release, it was not then available as a commercial single in the U.S., and, per chart rules at the time, was ineligible for the Hot 100 (although it was released elsewhere in the world and charted in other countries). In the digital era, the track was made available for purchase as a download and via streaming platforms.

 

More chart fine print: Even if "Last Christmas" had been a commercially-available single in the U.S. when it was first released, it likely wouldn't have hit the Hot 100. As chart historian Joel Whitburn notes in his book Christmas in the Charts, "From 1963 through 1972, and from 1983 through 1985 [with minimal exceptions], Billboard published a seasonal Christmas Singles chart and did not chart Christmas singles on the Hot 100."

So it was ineligible due to not being released physically, and probably would've been excluded anyway as most Christmas songs were. I found a UKMIX thread with what appears to be those Christmas song charts but it didn't register even there, and I believe Christmas songs were excluded from the airplay charts too.

 

I get the feeling it's not that popular in the US either though, at least compared to Europe. It's still only the 7th-highest Christmas song on the Hot 100, even with the advantages of international Spotify popularity and sounding far more contemporary than most of the others. I found an article of the most-downloaded Christmas songs as of 2016 and it was #10, and in one from 2010 it was #13.

So how come Sweet But Psycho is doing nothing here at all? Is it not being promoted?
It's only just starting to take off! I think it's going to take a while to peak here the same way 'New Rules' did.

 

(forgot to rejoice at 'breathin' getting another new peak :wub:)
