Hot 100 Jewels: The Weeknd Charts Multiple Songs

Hot 100: Rae Sremmurd remains no. 1 with “Black Beatles” while The Weeknd dominates the Hot 100 overall.

First things first, we at The Musical Hype skipped Hot 100 analysis last week. To quote G-Eazy, These Things Happens.  But…WE BACK! Rae Sremmurd don’t seem to be going anywhere.  Four a fourth week, “Black Beatles” is no. 1 on the Hot 100.  Right behind the southern rap duo is The Weeknd, who returns to his peak position with “Starboy.” Beyond Rae Sremmurd and a number of singles charting for The Weeknd, there are plenty of other interesting Hot 100 stories on the chart dated December 17, 2016.

1. Rae Sremmurd spend a fourth week atop the Billboard Hot 100 with “Black Beatles.”

2. The Weeknd returns to no. 2 with “Starboy” (ft. Daft Punk). “Party Monster” ascends from no. 39 to no. 16. “I Feel It Coming” rises from no. 48 to no. 22. Beyond these top three entries, The Weeknd dominates the Hot 100.
