It’s another
week at number one
for
Olivia Rodrigo
‘s “Drivers License,” which has ruled the
Billboard
Hot 100 since it debuted at number one in January. The song has now racked up another number-one on a different chart as well.
“Drivers License” has risen to the top of
Billboard
Pop Airplay chart in seven weeks. That’s the fastest trip to number one on that chart since
Ed Sheeran
‘s “Shape of You” did it in seven weeks back in 2017.
However, no
female
lead artist has reached number one on that chart that fast with a
debut
single in nearly 20 years: The last to do so was
Blu Cantrell
with “Hit ‘Em Up Style (Oops!)” in 2001.
Elsewhere on the chart,
Chris Brown
scores his highest Hot 100 chart rank in nearly 13 years with “Go Crazy.” The song, featuring
Young Thug
, has jumped to number three. The last time Chris had a single do that well was back in 2008, with “Forever,” which peaked at number two.
