Sabrina Carpenter's Breakout Single Has Been Demoted

Before releasing her album Short n' Sweet, Sabrina Carpenter had already scored a breakout hit on the Hot 100 with "Feather." Taken from her previous full-length Emails I Can't Send, the track helped her rise to a new high point on the Hot 100, and it remained on the tally for months. While that composition may have set the stage for her takeover in the United States, it has now been demoted in her discography.
"Taste" was pushed as the third official single from Short n' Sweet last August. Coming up on a year later, the track is still present inside the top 40 on the Hot 100, as it dips slightly from No. 38 to No. 40.
As "Taste" holds on, it reaches 38 weeks on the list — a special number for Carpenter. The track now ties with "Please Please Please" as her second-longest-running Hot 100 hit. As the Short n' Sweet focus track remains on the roster, it breaks its tie with "Feather," which spent 37 frames on the Hot 100.
Carpenter's sturdiest win on the Hot 100 remains "Espresso" by a wide margin. That track is still going strong and stands out as the Grammy winner's highest-charting success at the moment. It slips slightly to No. 21 in its fifty-seventh frame on the chart, which ranks the most consumed songs in the U.S.
As "Taste" earns another stay on the Hot 100 and breaks its match with "Feather," that means that Carpenter's three longest-running Hot 100 hits now all come from Short n' Sweet.
"Espresso," "Please Please Please," and "Taste" have each spent time inside the top three on the chart and were selected as singles. The fourth focus cut from the standard edition, "Bed Chem," is no longer present on the Hot 100. It ranks as her fifth-longest-charting success, with 32 weeks on the tally, coming in just behind "Feather" by about a month.
There's a good chance that "Taste" will remain on the Hot 100 when Billboard refreshes its charts in a few days. If it can hold on, it will pass "Please Please Please" and become Carpenter's second-longest-running tune on the list. It does seem unlikely that it will be able to match "Espresso,' though — especially considering the fact that the singer's biggest win is still outperforming all of her other cuts.

Coldplay kicks off final leg of historic tour with hit songs and uninhibited goodwill
Coldplay kicks off final leg of historic tour with hit songs and uninhibited goodwill Show Caption Hide Caption Coldplay's 'Music of The Spheres' tour is the biggest rock tour ever Coldplay's 'Music of The Spheres' world tour is the biggest rock tour of all time, according to Billboard's touring archives. unbranded - Entertainment PALO ALTO, California – Sitting among some 50,000 other happy souls at Stanford Stadium watching Chris Martin hop, skip and jump around a confetti-strewn stage, a thought comes to mind. This must be what it's like to live inside a magnificently utopian Hallmark card. Martin and his merry band of Coldplay troubadours – guitarist Jonny Buckland, bass player Guy Berryman and drummer Will Champion – unleashed their infectious brand of rock May 31 on an adoring California crowd to kick off the final leg of a three year tour that wraps in London this September. Love was decidedly in the air. In the hearts created by digitally controlled audience wrist bands, in the spontaneous kisses shared by couples in the crowd, and in the countless exhortations from Martin, who seems to be genuinely if not desperately trying to counter a rather grim global mood. Coldplay really should be called Warmplay, so brimming with affection and frolic is this band and its music. Not that Martin and Company aren't aware their brand of upbeat sonic love bombs seem to run counter to the current global mood. Whether it was a joke about the band suddenly losing its visas, a T-shirt that proclaimed "Everyone is an alien somewhere" or a salute to both Israeli and Palestinian fans alike ("Don't put some bulls--- on the internet now, we love all people!" Martin boomed), the message was clear: Don't bring your siloed, judgmental views anywhere near a Coldplay concert. From roaring rockers to thoughtful ballads, Coldplay's range keeps the show moving The show started in daylight after a hot, sunshiny day in Northern California. That meant after one early song ended with a dramatic coda, Martin quipped: "OK, there you had to imagine that all the lights had gone out." At another point, he noted "this is show 195 of the tour, or, 194 rehearsals for this Stanford show" (the band will perform here again June 1). And what of the music itself? Does it matter, truly? For three decades now, this quartet of college pals have produced an impressive body of work that is eminently hummable, a cornucopia of earworms that everyone knows even if most folks would fail to come up with the names of their songs. They're just ... there. In the ether. In the culture. In the cosmos. If you want the full rundown, just check Coldplay's setlist. But suffice to say the 20 tunes blended Coldplay staples such as "Paradise" and "A Sky Full of Stars" with newer songs such as "My Universe" and "We Pray," this last one sung alongside Elyanna and Willow, who opened for the band. Coldplay have faced criticism from detractors who like to dismiss them as U2 Light or a Muzak Oasis. Martin's well aware, and has no issues accepting and dismissing such barbs. At 48, he and his mates are at this point beyond the reach of such slings and arrows, content if not downright proud in their roles as Pied Pipers of Good Vibrations. And hand it to this band. The lads have range, capable of playing any number of stadium-rocking infectious sing-a-longs such as "Clocks," but then bringing things way down with Martin-at-the-keyboard songs such as "Magic" (which Martin sang to two fans who'd each requested that tune on cardboard signs they'd held up in front of him). A Coldplay concert is less musical evening and more a spiritual rally Say what you will about a songs such as "Viva La Vida" or "Adventure of a Lifetime." If they're not gritty or serious enough for your tastes, so be it. For Martin, they are nothing less than personal anthems, statements of commitment to making the world just a little bit better, one song, one concert, one human connection at a time. During the show, there were many times Martin acted almost like a preacher in this church of Coldplay, a willing congregation welcoming his pleas and exhortations. With his beaming smile and infectious enthusiasm, he asked the crowd at one point to pick a fan across the stadium and wave at them. In another break, he told everyone to spend five seconds beaming out goodwill towards either someone you liked or someone you disliked. In another gesture that wasn't heeded by all, Martin stopped "A Sky Full of Stars" and asked the crowd to please put their phones away and just live in the moment. Near the end, Martin made a point of thanking a long list of people, from Coldplay's crew to the vendors in the stands. He seemed almost intent to leave no one out for fear of offending. For Martin, humans can be amazing, if they only remember to shut out the negativity. Bob Marley in his time pushed the same "one love" concept on the world through his music, a plea for unity and positivity. Coldplay has taken up that baton (Marley's refrain "Let's get together and feel alright" might as well be a Coldplay mantra) and added things the reggae icon might never have imagined, from confetti to fireworks, and from bouncing spheres to 3D vibrating hearts. Martin's 'One Love' entreaties come from the heart, as a long-ago meeting revealed Martin seems to be the lodestar for this big love vibe. I felt his idealistic embrace firsthand 10 years ago when I interviewed the band about Coldplay's seventh album, "A Head Full of Dreams." I was waiting to speak with Martin outside a burger joint in west Los Angeles, and he arrived a bit late, wildly apologetic and explaining he'd been delayed by his then-young son Moses' flag football game. For the next hour, Martin wasn't a rock star but just another father of a young child sharing parenthood stories and his hopes for the world amid bites of crispy French fries. At the end of our talk, he handed me a small pin that said "Love." The same pin he wore Saturday night in Palo Alto. It could have been the cheesiest celebrity gesture ever. Yet somehow it didn't feel like one. The man wears his heart on his sleeve, and he'll show it to you on a park bench or in a giant football stadium. So in a world that can often feel angry, fractured and imperiled, Coldplay is here to remind us all there is love, community and hope. If that sounds like a musical Hallmark card, ship me off in it.

Drake's Historic Hot 100 Record Has Been Matched — Again
Morgan Wallen ties Drake as his I'm the Problem album has now produced nine Hot 100 top 10 hits, ... More matching Certified Lover Boy — while both. stars trail Taylor Swift. TORONTO, CANADA - JANUARY 13: Rapper Drake leaves the court following the NBA game between the Toronto Raptors and the Golden State Warriors at Scotiabank Arena on January 13, 2025 in Toronto, Canada. NOTE TO USER: User expressly acknowledges and agrees that, by downloading and or using this photograph, User is consenting to the terms and conditions of the Getty Images License Agreement. (Photo by) Drake is, in many respects, the most successful artist ever when it comes to the Hot 100. The Canadian rapper has charted hundreds of songs on Billboard's ranking of the most consumed tracks in America, and though he doesn't claim every record, his legacy is secure. One of Drake's most impressive Hot 100 showings is matched this week — not by another rapper or even a pop superstar — but by the biggest name in country music to emerge in quite some time. Morgan Wallen's new album I'm the Problem debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with the largest opening sum of 2025. Several tracks from the project reach the Hot 100's top 10 for the first time, with several opening in that space and others surging. Wallen is joined by Tate McRae at No. 1 with "What I Want," which debuts in the highest space. The brand new tune "I Got Better" opens at No. 7. At the same time, "Superman," which was released earlier in May as a promotional cut, breaks into the loftiest tier for the first time. The track originally kicked off its time at No. 16 but now rockets to No. 8 in its second stay on the tally. As "What I Want" and "I Got Better" debut inside the top 10 and "Superman" reaches No. 8, Wallen's I'm the Problem has now produced nine top 10 hits on the Hot 100. His full-length is just the fourth in history to score that many smashes, and Wallen is now tied with Drake at this figure. Drake's Certified Lover Boy also produced nine top 10 successes on the Hot 100 when it was brand new. He managed the feat in September 2021 when he occupied all but one slot inside the uppermost region on the ranking. Only one musician has conquered the entirety of the top 10 in one fell swoop — and she's managed to do so twice. Taylor Swift became the first artist to accomplish the incredible showing with her album Midnights, which sent its brand new cuts into the highest region. She repeated that showing and even expanded her reach to dominate the entire 14 highest spaces at one time with 2024's The Tortured Poets Department.

Morgan Wallen Matches Justin Bieber And Jay-Z
Morgan Wallen scores 29 new Hot 100 hits thanks to his I'm the Problem album, tying Jay-Z and Justin ... More Bieber at 105 total entries in the process. Morgan Wallen performs the song "'98 Braves" at the 2023 Billboard Music Awards at Truist Park in Atlanta, Georgia. The show airs on November 19, 2023 on (Photo by Christopher Polk/Penske Media via Getty Images) Morgan Wallen is the king of the Hot 100 this week — and not just because he sits at No. 1. The superstar and Tate McRae debut their collaboration "What I Want" in first place, and the country superstar sends dozens of tracks from his latest album, I'm the Problem, to the tally. As a deluge of cuts from I'm the Problem reach the Hot 100, Wallen adds significantly to his career total of placements, passing an important milestone and tying with two of the most successful musicians of the past several decades. All 29 new appearances on the Hot 100 are taken from I'm the Problem. As those two dozen-plus tracks arrive, the singer-songwriter increases his career total to 105 placements on the roster, according to Billboard. With exactly 105 Hot 100 wins to his credit, Wallen is now tied with Justin Bieber and Jay-Z, who have also accrued just as many. Both of those artists had quite the head start and spent well over a decade accruing smashes before Wallen's career really took off. Neither has been particularly focused on music lately, so their sums haven't increased significantly in recent years. Thanks to I'm the Problem, Wallen has now snagged four No. 1 hits. Two of them — "Love Somebody" and the brand new "What I Want" with McRae — opened in first place. He also reached the summit with his solo hit "Last Night" taken from his previous album One Thing at a Time, and "I Had Some Help," his collaboration with Post Malone. In total, Wallen has landed 17 top 10 smashes, including nine from his latest full-length. The record for the most Hot 100 hits is still owned by Drake, and it may always be. He is up to 358 placements on the tally, nearly 100 more than the runner-up, Taylor Swift, who claims 264. Also included in this exclusive club, which now features 21 artists, are names like Future, Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj, The Weeknd, and Eminem.
