The German singer Kim Petras has become the first publicly trans performer in history to reach No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with her Sam Smith collaboration “Unholy,” which reached the top spot.
The Hot 100 blends all-genre U.S. streaming (official audio and official video), radio airplay, and sales data. Unholy dethroned Steve Lacy’s ‘Bad Habit’, which was Petras’ first-ever entry on the Billboard Hot 100.
Styles “As It Was” holds at No. 3 on the Hot 100, after 15 weeks at No. 1 – the fourth-longest reign in the chart’s history. Lil Baby debuts three songs on the Hot 100 in the top 10: ‘California Breeze’, ‘Forever’, featuring Fridayy, and ‘Real Spill’, at Nos. 4, 8 and 10, respectively.

Lil Baby notches his 11th, 12th and 13th Hot 100 top 10s, with all three tracks from his album It’s Only Me, which soars in as his third Billboard 200 No. 1, with 216,000 equivalent album units.
