Post Malone's 'rockstar' Tops Hot 100 for 8th Week
Post Malone is feeling like a “rockstar.” The rapper’s 21 Savage-assisted single remains atop the Billboard Hot 100 for the eighth week.
Additionally, “rockstar” topped the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Rap Songs charts for an eighth week. The song also earns its 10th nonconsecutive week atop the Streaming Songs chart with 50.5 million domestic streams for the week, according to Billboard.
Achievements keep rolling for “rockstar.” The track is now the longest-running No. 1 to have “rock” in its title, beating out Joan Jett & the Blackhearts’ classic, “I Love Rock & Roll.” Now, the banger is prepping fans for Posty’s forthcoming album Beerbongs & Bentleys, which was expected to drop last week.
“hey guys, i know a lot of you guys were expecting a project today, it won’t be dropping for a little while,” he told fans following the delay. “I’m sorry to let you down, but i need to make sure this album is perfect for you. I’m gonna keep working my ass off and make the best fucking album ever. i love ya.”
Camila Cabello’s Young Thug-assisted “Havana” remains at No. 2, trailing “rockstar” for five weeks now. Ed Sheeran’s “Perfect” bounces up from No. 5-3. His placement could improve next week, with a full week of tracking for Beyoncé’s “Perfect” remix, “Perfect Duet.”
Elsewhere, Lil Pump’s “Gucci Gang” drops 3-4, Sam Smith’s “Too Good at Goodbyes” jumps 7-6, and Cardi B goes back to back with “Bodak Yellow” at No. 7 and her appearance on G-Eazy’s “No Limit” at No. 8. The A$AP Rocky-assisted joint is Gerald’s second Hot 100 top 10 thus far. Finally, coming in at No. 9 is Maroon 5 with the SZA-featured “What Lovers Do.”
