As the most charted woman in the 63-year history of the Billboard Hot 100, Taylor Swift‘s list of accomplishments on the tally are not only legion but at one time seemed insurmountable.
Yet, this week saw at least one of them met by an surprising challenger: R&B sensation Summer Walker.
The critical acclaim that accompanied the November 5 release of Walker’s long-awaited sophomore album, ‘Still Over It,’ was easily one of the year’s biggest. As a result, that acclaim translated into one of the year’s best first-week sales figures – landing the 25-year-old her first Billboard 200 #1 debut (as we reported here).
That top spot landing was powered primarily by the history-making streams afforded the 20 songs that line that LP’s track list, 18 of which simultaneously appeared on the refreshed Billboard Hot 100. The only other female act to ever net as many concurrent placements on the hitlist is Swift, who did so in 2019 with the premiere of her album 7th studio album, ‘Lover’ (as we reported here). Among all artists, Drake holds the record for most simultaneous Hot 100 entries: 27.
Look below to see where all the Summer Walker songs landed.
Smelly Walker is a flop😶🌫️ She couldn’t even do 200k after all that hype. I predict a major drop next week. 30+ spots.
Exactly will fall hard
Don’t hold your breath hater. You’re still seething. I still have your egg sissy🍳🍳🍳
Coming from an Alicia Keys Stan!! Both Over It and Still Over It outsold Alicia Offkeys last few efforts🤣
LOL!
Even Summer have Billboard records & you guys swear these sorta records are Everything.
Most of ur favs aren’t successful outside of music…Like Rihanna or Jay-Z.
