Taylor Swift guidelines the Scorching 100 as soon as again this 7 days, as her new one “Willow” starts off its time on the all-genre rating of the most-consumed tunes in the U.S. as high as a cut can climb. The keep track of, which serves as the initial focus observe from her new album Evermore (which also opens at No. 1 on the Billboard 200) is her second leader of 2020 and her seventh total. Most likely far more importantly when wanting at the heritage textbooks, “Willow” is her third title to start out its time on the Hot 100 at No. 1.
In the course of the chart’s half-century-long background, only 6 musicians have been in a position to debut at the very least 3 tunes at No. 1 on the Scorching 100, and Swift is now in truly incredible business.
Swift initial debuted a track atop the Incredibly hot 100 back again in 2014, when “Shake It Off” became her 2nd-ever winner. The tune launched her to start with all-pop album 1989 brilliantly, and it turned her from a place most loved to a accurate pop icon.

This week, she mimics that good results, launching titles atop the two important lists simultaneously—something that had never happened just before 2020.
Among all artists, Ariana Grande qualified prospects the way with the most No. 1 commences in Sizzling 100 history. She has launched five unique smashes in the driver’s seat, which include three—“Stuck With U” with Justin Bieber, “Rain on Me” with Lady Gaga and her personal “Positions”—in 2020 alone.

At the charge she’s heading, Swift will most likely collect a lot more No. 1 debuts on the Very hot 100 whenever she has new songs to shock the planet with, but by then, there’s no telling how lots of other stars will claim 3 (or more) this sort of wins.
