Having a song on the Billboard Top 100 is always an honor, but making the top 3 might as well be a lifetime achievement. This week’s top 3 are artists you should know good and well at this point, as they’ve all been holding steadfast on the charts. You can’t turn on your car radio without hearing one of these hits. So, let’s talk about our top 3 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 for the week of September 28th, 2024.
Top Billboard 3: Espresso by Sabrina Carpenter
“Espresso” by Sabrina Carpenter has been slotted at number 3 on the Billboard Top 100 for 23 consecutive weeks. The track was released on April 11th, 2024, and immediately hit the charts at the end of the month. It’s been riding the wave throughout the 2024 summer season and is holding strong in that number 3 position. Surprisingly, the track hasn’t hit number 1 yet but has garnered some milestones and awards for Carpenter, including the VMA for 2024 Song of the Year.
Carpenter herself has joked about the track, stating that the main line of the chorus, ‘That’s that me espresso’, sounds stupid to her, but it’s incredibly successful regardless. This song is unavoidable on the radio right now. Carpenter is also standing as a Billboard icon right now, with not one, but three hits in the top 10 right now, with “Taste” sitting at number 8 this week and “Please Please Please” at number 9.
Top Billboard 2: I Had Some Help by Post Malone feat. Morgan Wallen
We’re still seeing the essence of country music on the Billboard Top 100 this week, as Post Malone and Morgan Wallen hold steadfast in the number 2 slot. “I Had Some Help” peaked at number 1 on the chart when it was released in May 2024 and has been fluctuating in the top 10 for 19 weeks consecutively. When the track was released, it was curious to see Post Malone in the country scene, as he was previously known for hip hop and more recently pop music. However, the charts don’t lie. The success is a testament to Malone’s versatility.
“I Had Some Help” is a tragic story of a breakup, where the writers lament about how their ex would take more responsibility for the problems in the relationship. The song’s popularity might have stemmed from the relatable lyrics or emotional tone. Either way, it’s here on the charts for another week as Malone’s sixth chart-topping hit and Wallen’s second. These boys did something right.
Top Billboard 1: A Bar Song (Tipsy) by Shaboozey
Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” is now entering its 23rd week on the Billboard Top 100 and 11th week in the number 1 slot. The country-styled cover of J-Kwon’s hit hip-hop track, “Tipsy,” has made waves this year since its release in April 2024. The track hits fans of the original track and has adopted new listeners, making for a timeless performance. Although Shaboozey has been making music since 2014, he went fairly unnoticed until his success with “A Bar Song (Tipsy).”
This iconic country cover has amassed over 700 million streams on Spotify, gifting the rising artist over 31 million monthly listeners on the platform. Shaboozey has proven himself as more than a cover artist with a full-length album released in 2024, titled Where I’ve Been Isn’t Where I’m Going. The album’s mix of country and hip-hop showcases the young artist’s unique style, bringing him further into the spotlight with his genuine personality.
In conclusion
Shaboozey, Post Malone (and Morgan Wallen), and Sabrina Carpenter have reigned supreme on the Billboard Top 100 for multiple consecutive weeks. Their iconic tracks have been all over the radio from day one to the present, with few signs of slowing down. All three artists are on the rise with the accolades to show for it in the form of awards and statistics. How long will it stay this way, though? Only time will tell.
