Just weeks before collecting the first GRAMMY of her career at the ceremony’s 64th annual edition (as we reported here), Doja Cat celebrated another personal milestone as her ‘Planet Her’ hit, ‘Woman,’ clawed to the top of the Billboard Rhythmic Airplay charts.  With the ascension, the hitmaker became the first woman to plant four #1 hits on that tally from one album.

The tune’s reign isn’t limited to that specific radio format, however. Peruse of updated Pop and R&B airplay charts sees her listed firmly at #1 there as well – a domination that’s led to an overall rise on the Hot 100 this week.

By many-a-critic’s standard, ‘Industry Baby’ performer Lil Nas X and Justin Bieber were considered frontrunners for GRAMMY wins at the 2022 ceremony based on the commercial and critical reception of their respective 2021 albums – ‘Montero’ and ‘Justice.’

Yet, despite delivering two of the night’s most talked about performances (as we reported here), the showings would later prove to be the only time they graced the stage as both left the event empty-handed.
