Post Malone & Morgan Wallen Top Billboard Hot 100 for Third Week, Zach Bryan Debuts in Top 10 (2024)

• ‘Help’ Holds at No. 1

  “I Had Some Help,” on Mercury/Republic/Big Loud, notches a third week at No. 1 on the Hot 100, with 52.4 million radio airplay audience impressions (up 24%, good for the chart’s top Airplay Gainer award for a second week), 47.4 million official streams (down 14%) and 15,000 sold (down 25%) in the U.S. May 24-30.

  The collaboration drops to No. 2 on the Digital Song Sales chart after two weeks at No. 1; keeps at No. 2 after it debuted at No. 1 on Streaming Songs and jumps 9-5 on Radio Songs. On the lattermost list, it hits the top five in just its fourth week, wrapping the fastest rise to the region since Miley Cyrus’ “Flowers” also needed only four frames to go top five in January-February 2023. It’s also the first song ever to reach the Radio Songs top five in as few as four weeks that has also hit the Country Airplay chart’s top five (dating to each chart’s 1990 inception). It bounds 8-4 on Country Airplay, while hitting the Adult Pop Airplay top 10 (13-10) and pushing 15-14 on Pop Airplay.

• ‘Pink Skies’ Shines in Top 10

  Zach Bryan’s “Pink Skies” debuts at No. 6 on the Hot 100 with 31.6 million streams, 166,000 in radio reach and 10,000 sold. The track is expected to introduce his upcoming project, believed to be titled The Great American Bar Scene.

  The song arrives as Bryan’s third Hot 100 top 10, after “I Remember Everything,” featuring Kacey Musgraves, soared in atop the chart last September and “Something in the Orange” reached No. 10 in January 2023.

  “Pink Skies” concurrently debuts at No. 1 on the multimetric and Hot Rock Songs charts, becoming Bryan’s third leader on each ranking; “I Remember Everything” totaled 30 weeks atop each tally and “Something in the Orange,” 20 each. On Hot Country Songs, “Pink Skies” opens at No. 3, marking Bryan’s 10th top 10.

  Think “pink”: “Pink Skies” is the fourth Hot 100 top 10 with “pink” in its title over the chart’s nearly 66-year history. Here’s a recap of the select songs to have colored the region:

  • “Pink Shoe Laces,” Dodie Stevens, No. 3 peak, 1959
  • “Pink Cadillac,” Natalie Cole, No. 5, 1988
  • “Pink Skies,” Zach Bryan, No. 6 (to date), 2024
  • “Pink Houses,” John Mellencamp, No. 8, 1984

  Plus, Pink Floyd (“Another Bring in the Wall”; No. 1 for four weeks in 1980), PinkPantheress (“Boy’s a Liar, Pt. 2,” with Ice Spice; No. 3, 2023) and Frijid Pink (“House of the Rising Sun”; No. 7, 1970) have hit the Hot 100’s top 10 … along with P!nk, who boasts four No. 1s among 15 career top 10s.
