Ariana Grande & Justin Bieber's 'Stuck With U' Debuts at No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100

 

Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber's "Stuck With U" debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart. The duet launches as Grande's third Hot 100 leader and Bieber's sixth, and their first together.

Notably, Grande and Bieber each make their third debut at No. 1 on the Hot 100, joining Mariah Carey and Drake as the only artists with that many starts at the summit.
Plus, 6ix9ine's "Gooba" enters the Hot 100 at No. 3, marking his second top 10 and tying his best placement. The track also opens atop the Streaming Songs and Hot Rap Songs charts, beginning as the rapper's first No. 1 on each ranking. The rapper adds his second Hot 100 top 10 and ties best career rank. "FEFE," featuring Minaj and Murda Beatz, reached No. 3 in August 2018. "Gooba" concurrently crowns the multi-metric Hot Rap Songs chart upon its debut, marking 6ix9ine's first No. 1 on the ranking.

"Stuck With U," released at midnight ET on May 8 on SB Projects/Republic/Def Jam, begins as the 1,101st No. 1 in the Hot 100's 61-year history, and the 38th to debut at the summit. 

Grande's third Hot 100 No. 1, Bieber's sixth: Grande previously topped the Hot  100 with the first two singles from her 2019 album Thank U Next: the title track, for seven weeks beginning in November 2018, and "7 Rings," for eight weeks starting in February 2019.
Bieber made his first five trips to No. 1 on the Hot 100 in 2015-17, with "What Do You Mean?" (one week, September 2015); "Sorry" (three weeks, January-February 2016); "Love Yourself" (two weeks, February 2016); as featured, with Quavo, Chance the Rapper and Lil Wayne, on DJ Khaled's "I'm the One" (one week, May 2017); and as featured on Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee's "Despacito" (16 weeks, May-September 2017).
Bieber becomes the 25th artist in the Hot 100's history with at least six No. 1s.

Third No. 1 debut each: Grande and Bieber debut at No. 1 on the Hot 100 for a third time each, joining Mariah Carey and Drake as the only artists with that many chart-topping starts. Grande, meanwhile, is the only artist to date whose first three leaders have all entered at No. 1, as "Stuck With U" follows "Thank U Next" and "7 Rings" in having premiered at the pinnacle.
Bieber previously began at No. 1 with "What Do You Mean?" and "I'm the One."
Carey achieved her three No. 1 bows in 1995-97, while Drake added his third, "Toosie Slide," on the April 20-dated chart.

A week after soaring from No. 6 to No. 1 on the Hot 100, Doja Cat's "Say So," featuring Nicki Minaj, drops to No. 2.  The Weeknd's "Blinding Lights" descends 3-4 on the Hot 100, after four weeks on top.
Megan Thee Stallion's "Savage," featuring Beyoncé, retreats to No. 5 on the Hot 100 a week after rising to its No. 2 high, while claiming top Airplay Gainer honors (61.7 million, up 21%) for a third consecutive week.
Drake's "Toosie Slide" descends 4-6 on the Hot 100, following its one-week reign; Roddy Ricch's "The Box" drops 5-7, after it dominated for 11 weeks; and DaBaby's "Rockstar," featuring Ricch, hits a new high at No. 8, lifting from No. 9, while winning the top Streaming Gainer nod (31.7 million, up 12%).

Rounding out the Hot 100's top 10, Dua Lipa's "Don't Start Now" falls 6-9, after peaking at No. 2, and Post Malone's "Circles" backtracks 8-10, following its three-week rule, as it logs a record-extending 37th week in the top 10.
