For the second time in her career (following 2016’s ‘Lemonade’), Beyonce – thanks to her July 29-released album ‘Renaissance‘ – sent every song from one studio project to a rung on the Billboard Hot 100.
The same week the 16-track effort landed at #1 on the Billboard 200 with the largest first-week sales of any female act this year, its lead single, ‘Break My Soul,’ mirrored its success on the Hot 100 by blasting to its top position.
Its appearance at the pole position isn’t the only top 20 success the diva’s celebrating this week, however. More inside:
Although all ‘Renaissance’ tracks found placement on this week’s Hot 100, standout entries are those that landed in the top 40: ‘Cuff It’ (#13), ‘Alien Superstar’ (#19), ‘Church Girl’ (#22), ‘I’m That Girl’ (#26), ‘Energy’ (#27), and ‘Cozy’ (#30).
With these, Bey now boasts 47 solo top 40 hits. Only Taylor Swift (86), Nicki Minaj (64), Rihanna (51) and Madonna (49).
More impressively, the 40-year-old’s overall Hot 100 hit count now rests at 81 – the third-most among solo women in the chart’s 64-year history. Only Swift (168) and Minaj (123) boast more, while Drake ranks atop all acts with 276 placements (as of time reported).
Look below to see where the rest of the ‘Renaissance’ songs landed on this week’s refreshed TGJ Chart Check.

Another reason to bow down. Queen!
Did she bow down to the un.born baby shE killed..fuc no
Looks like Cuff It should be the next single, nearly made top ten just at release. Definitely my favorite on Renaissance.
TGJ is so late reporting this. They also failed to report Renassiance Worldwide sales of 400k. THE QUEEN already sold Half of the 800k that Drake sold in 7 weeks. It will be Extra funny if Renaissance sells 1 Million worldwide and US before Drake. 😂
(RENAISSANCE MOVIE DROPING 8/20)
What? Yall don’t expect her to sell 1 million in US? Adele did it. Harry Styles did it.
Additionally, Drake’s album and singles success eats almost every artist. He is hard to to test on his best day.
Beyonce isn’t the Queen of ALBUM success, she’s the Queen of SUCCESS period.
The QUEEN OF MUSIC sits next to only the King Michael. In the words of Nipsy Husky This is a MARATHON not a Race.
Drake gave his Song HEATED to the Queen for a reasonBeyonce isn’t the Queen of ALBUM success, she’s the Queen of SUCCESS period.
The QUEEN OF MUSIC sits next to only the King Michael. 👑
In the words of Nipsey Hussle, this is a MARATHON not a Race. Why do you think Drake gave one of his best tracks HEATED to B? Why, Because Beyonce is Music Royalty not Adele, not Taylor, and not Harry Styles.

Cuff It and Alien Superstar are hits that stick like grits!
Thatgrapejuice really cappin hard for Beyonce’s and Beyhive’s attention. Truth be told, we’ve witness other lessor known artist [such Kendrick] have their album singles debut with much higher placement.
In addition, her fans call her King Bey. Therefore, compare her to the fellas..such a Drake and his 276 placement…Bey has much work to do. Come on Renaissance Act II and III to bring up the count.
On the plus side, despite all the negative talk about BMS,..she made it #1. Congrats to her for that. Although I am not thrilled about the album, she has other singles poised to do the same.
GJ specifically said only one with “every track on the album in the Top 100.” Now that’s facts.. 💯
Boy shut the hell up
@UHoesFunny, And then you will play the victim when it’s coming back at you? 🤡
So BrownSkinDanny has stolen yet another account huh?? I see you bitchass
Renaissance is the gift that just keeps on giving! I can’t wait for the visuals. Hopefully soon.
Bey sitting at home like, “I am number one. I’m the only one. Don’t even waste your time trying to compete with me.”
‘Alien Superstar’
She couldn’t compete with Rhianna so she killed Jay-Z baby . She made deal with devil. Ppl been saying she was a devil worshiper. .
She a thief and baby killer. Her staff and Tina had to tell her she could lose the baby…
After Beyonce killed her unborn child it should be. Jay should have never married her… especially if she knew she would kill his baby by jumping up and down in heels
Your fave is dead as well as her daughter which no one cares about. Your fave goes down in history as being a crackhead. You’re mad because she’s only known for a remake of a song and being a drug user. She’s dead and never coming back. Yup. DEAD DEAD DEAD and her b****** child too…. Both DEAD!! And my fav is number 1 on both charts! “Don’t even waste your time trying to compete with me”
These are for entries. With streaming most popular artists have almost all of their songs debut on the charts.
Are these hits? Or just entries? Streaming has watered the industry down a lot. Almost every popular artist album does this.
Oh she’s now an entry girl. Multiple top 10s woulda been cute
When Whitney was pregnant she took a break
When Beyonce was pregnant she went on tour . Fuc she thought would happen tryna compete with Rhianna
Rhianna Didn’t kill her first baby
Whitney didn’t kill her first baby
Beyonce knew she could kill the baby fkn selfish devil worshiping b****
