HUNTR/X’s ‘Golden’ Leads Hot 100 for Fifth Week — the Most Ever for an Animated Act

By Gary Trust | 9/15/2025

Saja Boys weren’t the only animated singers in HUNTR/X’s way.

HUNTR/X, the heroic trio in Netflix’s smash film KPop Demon Hunters, claims a fifth week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Golden” — which becomes the sole longest-leading hit by an animated act in the chart’s 67-year history. Two previous cartoon tunes each reigned for four weeks: The Archies, with “Sugar, Sugar” in 1969, and the Chipmunks with David Seville, with “The Chipmunk Song” over the 1958 holiday season.

Upon the original ascent to No. 1 for “Golden,” HUNTR/X — the IRL singing trio of EJAE, Audrey Nuna and REI AMI (in the roles of the movie’s characters Rumi, Mira and Zoey) — became the first female group associated with Korean pop to crown the Hot 100.

KPop Demon Hunters has also become the first soundtrack to generate four simultaneous Hot 100 top 10s over the chart’s archives. The songs place in the bracket for a fourth week, with Saja Boys’ “Your Idol” and “Soda Pop” each up a spot to return to their respective Nos. 4 and 5 bests and HUNTR/X’s “How It’s Done” lifting one place to a new No. 8 high.

Meanwhile, KPop Demon Hunters charts three songs in the Hot 100’s top five simultaneously for a third week. It surpasses the only other soundtrack that spun off three concurrent top five hits: For two weeks (April 8 and 15, 1978), three Saturday Night Fever songs were all in the top five: Bee Gees’ “Night Fever” and “Stayin’ Alive” and Yvonne Eliiman’s Bee Gees-penned “If I Can’t Have You” (at Nos. 1, 2 and 5, respectively).

As previously reported, the KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack slashes its way to its first week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. Thanks to the set and “Golden,” a soundtrack and one of its songs lead the Billboard 200 and Hot 100, respectively, for the first time since the charts dated March 5, 2022, when Encanto and its ensemble anthem “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” wrapped five weeks doubly dominating. (KPop Demon Hunters and Encanto are the only animated films to earn such honors. Plus, per the categorization of animated acts at No. 1 on the Hot 100, HUNTR/X, the Archies and the Chipmunks are self-contained acts, whereas characters in Encanto joined to sing “We Don’t Talk About Bruno,” with billing given to their real-life names, not their roles in the film.)

“Golden,” on Visva/Republic Records, tallied 33.8 million official streams (down 2% week-over-week), 26.3 million radio airplay audience impressions (up 19%) and 8,000 sold (down 11%) in the United States Sept. 5-11. Notably, the song has cleared 30 million streams for six weeks running, the most for a title this year; Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s “Luther” logged five such weeks.

“Golden” adds an eighth week at No. 1 on the Streaming Songs chart; pushes 24-20 on Radio Songs; and dips to No. 3 after two weeks atop Digital Song Sales.

“Golden” is the ninth song in the realm of Korean pop to rule the Hot 100, and the first by female lead vocalists with ties to the genre. (HUNTR/X singers EJAE and REI AMI were born in Seoul, South Korea; Nuna is from New Jersey.)

Among those nine, “Golden” becomes just the second to post at least five weeks at No. 1 on the Hot 100:

10 weeks, BTS, “Butter,” beginning June 5, 2021

5, HUNTR/X: EJAE, Audrey Nuna & REI AMI, “Golden,” beginning Aug. 16, 2025

3, BTS, “Dynamite,” beginning Sept. 5, 2020

1, Jung Kook, “Seven” (featuring Latto), July 29, 2023

1, Jimin, “Like Crazy,” April 8, 2023

1, BTS, “My Universe” (with Coldplay), Oct. 9, 2021

1, BTS, “Permission To Dance,” July 24, 2021

1, BTS, “Life Goes On,” Dec. 5, 2020

1, BTS, “Savage Love (Laxed – Siren Beat)” (with Jawsh 685 and Jason Derulo), Oct. 17, 2020

Plus, “Golden” ties for the third-longest Hot 100 command for a song by an all-female group of three or more members, dating to the first four-week No. 1 in the category in 1963:

11 weeks, Destiny’s Child, “Independent Women Part 1,” beginning Nov. 18, 2000

7, TLC, “Waterfalls,” beginning July 8, 1995

5, HUNTR/X: EJAE, Audrey Nuna & REI AMI, “Golden,” beginning Aug. 16, 2025

5, The Emotions, “Best of My Love,” beginning Aug. 20, 1977

4, TLC, “No Scrubs,” beginning April 10, 1999

4, TLC, “Creep,” beginning Jan. 28, 1995

4, Bangles, “Walk Like an Egyptian,” beginning Dec. 20, 1986

4, The Supremes, “Baby Love,” beginning Oct. 31, 1964

4, The Chiffons, “He’s So Fine,” beginning March 30, 1963

Elsewhere in the Hot 100’s top 10, Alex Warren’s “Ordinary” keeps at No. 2, after 10 nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 beginning in June. It adds a 13th frame at No. 1 on Radio Songs, up 3% to 75.1 million in audience; it’s the first song this year to reach 75 million in weekly reach, and the first since Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” last October. Warren performed “Ordinary” (in a medley with fellow ballad “Eternity”) Sept. 7 on the MTV Video Music Awards, broadcast on CBS; it also gained by 1% to 23.2 million streams in the tracking week.

Two songs by Sabrina Carpenter sandwich Saja Boys’ Hot 100 top 10s: “Manchild,” which led in its debut week in June, rises 4-3 and “Tears,” which Carpenter performed on the VMAs, drops 3-6 in its second week on the chart.

Morgan Wallen’s “What I Want,” featuring Tate McRae, holds at No. 7, after it reigned in its first week in May , becoming Wallen’s fourth No. 1 and McRae’s first. It posts a 17th week atop the multimetric Hot Country Songs chart.

Below HUNTR/X’s “How It’s Done,” which leads the Hot Dance/Pop Songs chart for an 11th week, Ravyn Lenae’s “Love Me Not” falls 8-9 on the Hot 100, after hitting No. 5, and Justin Bieber’s No. 2-peaking “Daisies” returns to the top 10 (11-10).

HOT 100 16.09.25 #50

THE TOP TEN:

10. Daisies – Justin Bieber (Up 1/9 weeks in chart)
9. Love Me Not – Ravyn Lenae (Down 1/24 weeks in chart)
8. How It's Done – Huntr/X/Ejae/Audrey Nuna/Rei Ami (Up 1/NEW PEAK/11 weeks in chart)
7. What I Want - Morgan Wallen/Tate McRae (No change/17 weeks in chart)
6. Tears - Sabrina Carpenter (Down 3/2 weeks in the chart)
5. Soda Pop – Saja Boys (Up 1/11 weeks in chart)
4. Your Idol – Saja Boys (Up 1/12 weeks in chart)
3. Manchild - Sabrina Carpenter (Up 1/14 weeks in chart)
2. Ordinary - Alex Warren (No change/31 weeks in chart)
1. Golden – Huntr/X/Ejae/Audrey Nuna/Rei Ami (No change/5 weeks at No. 1/12 weeks in chart)

NEW ENTRIES:

88. Love Song – Justin Bieber (7.1/10)

79. Tiramisu – Don Toliver (7.8/10)

Previous listen:

I don't understand the sudden recent appeal for Don. His music isn't exactly the blandest or most soulless trap choice, but it is quite similar, not only in each song but also compared to other artists in the genre. It just doesn't feel special.

Second listen:

A faster-pacedR&B-rap sex jam with traditional uses of rap production, such as hi-hats and dongs. This grew on me [+1.8 points]

77. Sienna – The Marias (7.8/10)

On the same album as the hit "No One Noticed", "Sienna" is a psychedelic pop-rock song that fits the message of looking at what more could've come out of a relationship that's split apart. The song has the dreamy lofi quality of their other hit, which reaches an all-time pitch high in the last 20 seconds.

66. Speed Demon – Justin Bieber (7.2/10)

As explained in my full "Swag II" review, I think music being similar isn't the worst crime, and that's shown with this Justin song; it keeps up what made the original "Swag" album with the more stripped-back acoustics and drums, but instead, like many other songs on the recent project, it's got Bieber's pop finish there more, with it resembling his other eras just a little bit more, as it sounds a tiny bit more modern and slick.

40. The Dead Dance – Lady Gaga (7.2/10)

Not by any means her finest, but definitely a good follow-up from "MAYHEM". I don't think it fits the album's structure as well, but it definitely does fit the modern Gaga era more. It has her strong and partying character that's displayed with lyrics such as "dancing until I'm dead", which rests upon a jam of a dance song that sounds like it could be enjoyed by her older and newer fanbase. Lovely.
