Miley Cyrus isn’t the only music diva who recently planted a breakup anthem in the Hot 100’s upper rankings.

The fifth Hot 100 top 10 hit of Shaki’s career overall, the #9 entry of ‘Bzrp’ marks a personal milestone for the GRAMMY winner as it comes as her first-ever top 10 debut. More importantly, the diss track arrives as her first top 10 mention on the tally since she accompanied Beyonce to #3 with 2007’s ‘Beautiful Liar.’

SZA‘s bid to secure her first #1 hit on the Hot 100 may have been blocked by Taylor Swift last week and Miley Cyrus this week, but the R&B diva still has her sights set on seeing her name carved in the position with the ‘SOS‘ hit ‘Kill Bill.’

To aid its battle for the top spot the songstress (born Solana Rowe) has lifted the lid on yet another version of the tune, this time offering fans a stripped back rendition.

“I might kill my ex, not the best idea / His new girlfriend’s next, how’d I get here? / I might kill my ex, I still love him, though / Rather be in jail than alone,” she sings over the acoustic guitar.

And while ‘Bill’ has already helped hoist its parent album to a historic sixth week atop the Billboard 200, is the acoustic rendition just what the doctor ordered to finally get itself to the Hot 100’s summit?
