Sweet 16!
After finessing their way to #3 on the Hot 100 thanks to their first 90’s-inspired collaboration – 2018’s ‘Finesse (Remix)’ – Cardi B & Bruno Mars are looking for a redo with the slow jam, ‘Please Me.’ The latter, which sees Cardi take the leading role, shot to the top of sales tallies just moments after its official arrival. Now, with its inaugural tracking week in its rearview, The Stereotypes-produced cut has made an impressive debut on this week’s Billboard Hot 100 at #5.
All the more noteworthy is news the placement notches Mars’ 16th run in the tally’s top 10, a feat that extends his reign among male vocalists this decade. Details below:
While Drake reigns overall among males (laying claim to a whopping 31 Hot 100 top 10 hits since 2010), Mars leaves all his singing competitors in the dust as it relates to runs on the tally’s topmost dectet this decade.
See who joins Mars and Cardi in the top 25 this week on TGJ’s ‘Chart Check’:
I like Bruno Mars..??♂️
This is the jam! It’s nice to see two Grammy winners pay tribute to a golden era of music and be successful in the charts, also. Will this be a billboard hot 100 #1? That would be GREAT, not everybody has that to their credit!!
I LIVE for the shade LOLOLO
SMH PAYOLA.
Why isn’t Cardi not credited for “Thotiana” on Billboard Hot 100? She is a featured artist on that song, even heard Cardi’s version played on radio.
2 Grammy winner’s on 1 track. Not 1 but 2.
