Dijon, Eddie Benjamin & Lil B

Dijon scores his first Hot 100 hit with 'Devotion,' his co-billed collaboration with Bieber. The song debuts at No. 56 on the strength of 9.1 million official U.S. streams. It also opens at No. 7 on Hot R&B Songs and No. 16 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. Dijon's past chart appearances include his 2023 debut album Absolutely (which peaked at No. 71 on Top Album Sales) and a feature on Bon Iver's 'Day One' earlier this year. He's also a key creative behind Swag, co-producing and co-writing multiple tracks including 'Daisies' (No. 2), 'Yukon' (No. 17) and 'Things You Do' (No. 35). Before working with Bieber, Dijon toured with boygenius, Clairo and Bartees Strange.
Eddie Benjamin also earns his first Hot 100 entry with 'Swag,' alongside Bieber and Cash Cobain. The song debuts at No. 70 with 7 million U.S. streams. Benjamin had charted once before this week, via his solo song 'Weatherman' — the track peaked at No. 22 on Pop Airplay in May 2022. Benjamin co-wrote or co-produced 13 tracks on Swag, including 'Daisies.' He and Bieber have a longstanding history, as he opened on Bieber's Justice World Tour in 2022.
Lil B, the cult internet rap icon, finally lands on the Hot 100 with his co-billed appearance on Bieber's 'Dadz Love,' which debuts at No. 84 (6.2 million streams). Though he first charted in 2011 with I'm Gay (No. 56 peak on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums), this marks a milestone in his unconventional career. Also known as the BasedGod, Lil B has released dozens of mixtapes in his career and built a legacy as a pioneering figure of internet-era rap. Many of those mixtapes were unavailable on streaming services until 2018, when he uploaded more than 30 of them to DSPs.
Beau Nox
The pop singer-songwriter scores his first Billboard chart entry with 'White Wine & Adderall,' a collaboration with The Chainsmokers. The track, released July 11 via Secondhand Happiness/Disruptor/Columbia, debuts at No. 8 on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs with 1.3 million U.S. streams.
oskar med k
The Norwegian producer notches his first chart appearance with 'Make Me Feel,' which debuts at No. 25 on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs, following a 142% streaming surge (691,000 U.S. streams). The song has gained traction on TikTok, where it's been featured in more than 13,000 videos to date.
Stove God Cooks
The emerging Syracuse, N.Y., rapper enters Billboard's charts for the first time with his feature on Clipse's 'F.I.C.O.' The track, from Clipse's new album Let God Sort Em Out, debuts at No. 20 on Hot Rap Songs and No. 34 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs (5.3 million U.S. streams). Stove God Cooks released his debut album Reasonable Drought, a collaborative effort with Roc Marciano, in 2020.

Friday Music Guide: New Music From Jonas Brothers, Gunna, MGK, Laufey and More
Billboard's Friday Music Guide serves as a handy guide to this Friday's most essential releases — the key music that everyone will be talking about today, and that will be dominating playlists this weekend and beyond. This week, Jonas Brothers go back home, Gunna keeps things efficient, and MGK finds his voice. Check out all of this week's picks below: More from Billboard Carnie Wilson Pays Tribute to Dad Brian Wilson Following Family Funeral: 'God Knows What We'd Be Without Him' 60th Anniversary of Beatles Show at Shea Stadium to Be Celebrated by New York Mets Damon Albarn, PinkPantheress & More Join Brian Eno's Together for Palestinian Relief Concert Jonas Brothers, Twenty years after their debut single together, Jonas Brothers are completely different people than the precocious Disney stars that were embraced by millions of young fans — and Greetings From Your Hometown, their third album since their 2019 reunion, presents adult-leaning pop-rock workouts while reflecting on the changes, as well as the unbreakable bond between Nick, Joe and Kevin. Gunna, Gunna's work in popular hip-hop over the past half-decade has been tireless, but his prolific nature has never made his studio output feel overwhelming; similarly, new album The Last Wun stretches across 25 tracks and beyond the 1-hour mark, but the project flies by with machine-gun bars, complex beats that quickly evaporate and guest stars (Wizkid, Burna Boy, Offset, Asake) that never detract from Gunna's steely focus. MGK, Throughout his shape-shifting career, MGK has showcased a natural gift for melody that has made each of his genre explorations instantly digestible; Lost Americana, a pop-rock foray that serves as a close cousin to his pop-punk projects, contains plenty of juicy hooks as expected, but also moments of stark honesty, such as his discussion of his sobriety on the opener 'Outlaw Overture.' Laufey, 'Snow White' 'I don't think I'm pretty, it's not up for debate,' Laufey sings on her striking new song 'Snow White,' 'A woman's best currency's her body, not her brain.' While Laufey has subverted modern pop norms with her jazzy orchestration, she's deploying her latest single from upcoming album A Matter of Time to upend the impossible standards of womanhood, telling a story at once both deeply personal and heartbreakingly universal. Bailey Zimmerman, Bailey Zimmerman has proven adept at catering to both Nashville diehards, such as on the rustic deep cuts to 2023's Religiously. The Album., and casual country fans, with smashes like 'Rock and a Hard Place' and the BigXthaPlug team-up 'All the Way'; the latter song doesn't appear on new album Different Night Same Rodeo, but there's still plenty of country-pop appeal to Zimmerman's twangy storytelling. Read a full review of Different Night Same Rodeo here. Ethel Cain, In a short time, Hayden Silas Anhedönia has turned her Ethel Cain persona into a truly original voice in modern indie music — and after her drone project Perverts detonated expectations earlier this year, Willoughy Tucker, I'll Always Love You returns Cain to the world of her 2022 breakthrough Preacher's Daughter as a literal prequel to that album, albeit with plenty of new ambitions (see: the 15-minute closer 'Waco, Texas'). Bryson Tiller, With the release of the first half of a planned double-album titled Solace & The Vices, Bryson Tiller leans into his ferocious flow and exorcises some demons while placing his R&B-heartthrob approach in the backseat for now; the stylistic separation works in his favor, and whets our appetite for the project's more soulful second half. Read a full review of The Vices here. Editor's Pick: Amaarae, Ghanaian American singer Amaarae ostensibly makes rhythmic pop music, but classifying the songs on Black Star feels like a fool's errand: the virtuosic new project gathers dance, hyperpop, R&B and Jersey club (among other disparate sounds) and smashes them together to create a dizzying party. Amaarae is a vocal dynamo, has impeccable taste, and is unquestionably a star in the making — get on board now, and shimmy through the end of the summer.
