October 14Oct 14 Author Taylor Swift’s ‘Patient Zero’ Spends Second Week at No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100By Gary Trust | 10/12/2026Taylor Swift’s “Patient Zero” tops the Billboard Hot 100 for a second week, a week after it launched at No. 1, becoming her 16th career leader.The single is one of four new cuts on the deluxe version, released Sept. 25, of Swift’s 2025 album, The Life of a Showgirl.Meanwhile, two songs enter the Hot 100’s top 10, led by Drake and Don Toliver’s “Solar Eclipse,” which debuts at No. 5. One of four tracks added to the Oct. 2 reissue of Drake’s album HABIBTI (originally released in May), the collab is Drake’s record-extending 91st top 10 and Toliver’s second, and his first in a lead role.Notably, “Solar Eclipse” interpolates Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas,” which holds at No. 2 on the Hot 100 following its record 24 weeks at No. 1.Plus, Slovak singer-songwriter ADÉLA achieves her first Hot 100 top 10 as “Nicole Kidman” climbs three spots to No. 9.“Patient Zero,” on Republic Records, totaled 17.4 million official streams (down 50% week over week), 26.1 million radio airplay audience impressions (down 9%), 8,000 downloads sold (down 88%) and 134,000 first-week copies sold on CD in the U.S. Oct. 2-8.The track dips to No. 2 in its second week on the Streaming Songs chart; rises 16-15 on Radio Songs; and adds a second week at No. 1 on Digital Song Sales.“Patient Zero” gives Swift a 51st week career week atop the Hot 100, combining all her chart-toppers. She solely claims the fifth-highest total in the chart’s 68-year history.Most Weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100:101, Mariah Carey60, Rihanna59, The Beatles58, Drake51, Taylor Swift50, Boyz II Men“Patient Zero” also marks Swift’s 10th Hot 100 No. 1 to reign for double-digit weeks.

Internet Money and Gunna’s “Lemonade,” featuring Toliver and NAV, hit No. 6 in November 2020.Concurrently, “Solar Eclipse” arrives as Drake’s record-extending 33rd No. 1 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart and his 10th on Hot R&B Songs, both of which use the same multimetric methodology as the Hot 100.Toliver tops both Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot R&B Songs for the first time.ADÉLA ascends to her first Hot 100 top 10 as “Nicole Kidman” rolls 12-9. The song tallied 13.6 million streams (up 2%), 3 million in radio reach (up 100%) and 1,000 sold (up 3%) in the tracking week.In September, the song became the rising singer-songwriter and dancer’s first Hot 100 entry; her “Ain’t in LA” continues in the top 30, after reaching No. 27. Both are from her first LP, PRIMA, which last month debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200.ADÉLA recently told Pop Crave that she sought — and received — Nicole Kidman’s permission to use the revered actress’ name in the song. “I can’t believe Nicole Kidman knows who I am,” she marveled. “To get the recognition from the person that you wrote the song about, and it being not just any person … it’s Nicole Kidman. Like, she’s a legend.”Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” holds at No. 2 following its record 24 weeks atop the Hot 100. It rules the multimetric Hot Country Songs chart for a 44th week.Stella Lefty’s “Boston” rebounds 6-3 on the Hot 100 and Morgan Wallen’s “Been by Now” bumps 7-4, with both having hit No. 2.Tame Impala and JENNIE’s “Dracula” is up 10-6 on the Hot 100 after reaching No. 5. It leads the multimetric Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart for a 40th week and Hot Rock & Alternative Songs for a 22nd week, as it tops Radio Songs for a fourth week (62.5 million, essentially even).Ariana Grande’s “Hate That I Made You Love Me” lifts a spot (8-7) on the Hot 100, after it led in its debut week in June, as does Olivia Rodrigo’s “Stupid Song” (9-8), after peaking at No. 3.Rounding out the Hot 100’s top 10, Karol G’s “BbY WOW,” with Judeline and rusowsky, returns to the region (11-10), after reaching No. 6. It’s No. 1 on the multimetric Hot Latin Songs chart for an eighth week.
