With its reign over Tik Tok charts showing no sign of slowing, Flo Milli‘s breakout hit ‘Never Lose Me’ continues to post wins at Billboard.

In fact, the updated Hot 100 shows the Gerreaux-produced bop hopped from its previous #42 peak to #37 this week – marking the first time the Alabama-born beauty has ever entered the tally’s top 40.

What’s more, last week’s news of a forthcoming remix featuring SZA sent streams of ‘Never’ soaring; so much so the tune is expected to jump into the top 20 of next week’s all-genre chart.

Until we find out for sure if the Milli milestone will be a reality for the rapstress, look inside to see how she rocked the ‘Genius’ platform ‘Open Mic’ with a live rendition of the inescapable bop.

From their ‘Greatest Singers Ever‘ and ‘Top 200 Songs of the 80s‘ to the ‘Top 15 Rap Songs of 2023‘ and beyond, Rolling Stone is no stranger to getting collective side-eyes from music lovers for their polarizing rankings on “best-ever” tallies.

And, if the response to one of their latest lists is any indication, that criticism won’t be stopping any time soon.

Turning heads this week with the unveiling of the ‘100 Best R&B Songs of the 21st Century,’ the lineup featured some expected entries in unexpected positions alongside some snubs and downright shocking placements (e.g. Usher‘s ‘Confessions‘ at #1 and Beyonce‘s ‘Dangerously in Love’ at #3).
