The Weeknd & Ariana Grande has topped the Billboard Hot 100.
Ariana Grande and The Weeknd top the Hot 100 with the remix of The Weeknd’s 2016 hit ‘Die For You’, it becomes each of their seventh No.1s and their second No.1 together doing a remix.
They previously hit No.1 on the Hot 100 with the remix of ‘Save Your Tears’. Harry Styles throws back to his One Direction days. BLACKPINK’s Jisoo teases her upcoming solo music.
‘Die for You’ bounds from No. 6 to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, after Grande joined for its remix. The song reigns after it was originally released on The Weeknd’s album Starboy in 2016, before it was revived in recent months thanks in part to interaction on TikTok, which helped spark new promotion to radio and streaming services.
The team-up marks each artist’s seventh Hot 100 No. 1 – and their second together, after “Save Your Tears” led in 2021, for two weeks, also after Grande was added on a remixed version.
