Another Round: Shaboozey’s ‘A Bar Song (Tipsy)’ No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100 for Fifth Week (2024)

• ‘Tipsy’ Still Tops

  “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” dominates the Hot 100 for a fifth week with 90.5 million radio airplay audience impressions (essentially even week-over-week), 33.9 million official streams (down 5%) and 12,000 sold (down 12%) in the United States Aug. 2-8.

  As it tops Digital Song Sales for a 10th week, “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” is the first title to reach double-digit frames at No. 1 since BTS’ “Butter” ran up a record-tying 18 weeks on top in 2021. It matched the run of the group’s “Dynamite” in 2020-21. The three are the only songs this decade to lead for 10 or more weeks.

• No. 1 in Streams, Airplay & Sales Simultaneously

  “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” is now one of a select dozen hits to have led in the Hot 100’s three metrics simultaneously.

  Adele’s “Easy On Me” last earned the honor, the week that parent album 30 launched atop the Billboard 200 in 2021. She is also the only artist to claim the mark with two songs, as “Hello” likewise led in each metric at the same time in 2015. “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” and “Easy on Me” are the only songs to gain entry to the list this decade.

  Here’s a recap of each song that has achieved such a triple triumph:
