Kendrick Lamar’s “Squabble Up” Debuts At No. 1 On Billboard Hot 100, As He Commands Entire Top Five

Kendrick Lamar’s “Squabble Up” premieres at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, with the Nobel Prize-winning rapper owning the entire Top 5 of the singles chart this week. Lamar – whose surprise release, GNX, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart –  joins Taylor Swift, Drake, and the Beatles as the only artists in history to have five singles charting at Nos. 1-5 in a single week. Lamar’s “TV Off” (featuring Lefty Gunplay) lands at No. 2, “Luther” (with SZA) at No. 3, “Wacced Out Murals” at No. 4, and “Hey Now” (featuring Dody6) sitting at No. 5. Two additional GNX tracks cracked the Top 10 this week, as “Reincarnated” is at No. 8 and “Man at the Garden” sits at No. 9. The rest of the Top 10 is rounded out by Shaboozey’s 19-week No. 1 hit, “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” dropping to No. 6, Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ “Die With a Smile” slipping five places to No. 7, and Mariah Carey’s holiday classic “All I Want for Christmas Is You” jumping up six places to No. 10.
