“I Had Some Help” by Post Malone featuring Morgan Wallen only briefly fell from its No. 1 spot. After briefly giving way to Sabrina Carpenter’s “Please Please Please” and spending a week at No. 2, “I Had Some Help” is back at the top, making it the longest-running No. 1 song of 2024.

Behind them: Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” in second place, Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” in third place and Sabrina Carpenter in fourth and fifth place with her double-shot duo of “Espresso” and the aforementioned “Please Please Please”, which plummeted quite steeply from first to fifth place in the second week.

TOP ALBUMS:

Filed under “not really new”: Taylor Swift’s album The “Tortured Poets” section still in first place in the Billboard In the 200 albums charts for the tenth time in a row. (Boring, I know, sorry.)
