Shaboozey Approaches Chart Milestone While Gracie Abrams Ascends

In a musical landscape characterized by stability, Shaboozey‘s «A Bar Song (Tipsy)» continues its dominance atop the charts, holding the No. 1 position on the Billboard Hot 100 for an impressive 18 weeks. This brings the track tantalizingly close to tying the all-time record set by Lil Nas X‘s «Old Town Road» featuring Billy Ray Cyrus, which led the charts for 19 weeks in 2019.

Despite the static nature of the current charts, Gracie Abrams has emerged as a rising star with her single «That’s So True,» from the deluxe edition of her album «The Secret of Us.» The track has climbed into the Top 10, thanks in part to Abrams opening for Taylor Swift during her Eras Tour. The exposure Abrams received from the tour appears to have played a significant role in her chart success.

On the albums chart, Tyler, The Creator‘s «Chromakopia» held its No. 1 spot for the third consecutive week, narrowly surpassing competition from the K-pop group TOMORROW X TOGETHER with their album «The Star Chapter: SANCTUARY.» The competition on the charts remains fierce, with significant movements anticipated as new releases emerge alongside the holiday music surge.

At the upcoming CMA Awards, Shaboozey is slated to perform and has been nominated for single of the year and best new artist, which could potentially give «A Bar Song (Tipsy)» the momentum needed to achieve the record-tying 19th week at No. 1. Meanwhile, Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars‘ «Die With a Smile» is also contending for chart dominance, having recently topped several radio charts.

As the holiday season approaches, Mariah Carey‘s classic «All I Want for Christmas Is You» begins its perennial ascent, moving up the streaming charts and potentially poised for another top 10 appearance on the Hot 100, extending its holiday reign.
