Carti and Roan challenge Kendrick and SZA's No. 1

Playboi Carti and Chappell Roan have made significant music releases, aiming to challenge Kendrick Lamar and SZA's four-week reign at the top of the Billboard Hot 100. Playboi Carti's new album, titled "Music," features 30 tracks and includes collaborations with major artists like The Weeknd and Kendrick Lamar. His song "Evil J0rdan" is currently leading in streaming on platforms like Apple Music and Spotify, and it could debut strongly on the Hot 100. However, it may struggle to take the top spot due to limited radio support. Chappell Roan has released "The Giver," which has generated excitement among fans. The song debuted after being teased last November. While it briefly topped the iTunes chart, it is currently ranking below several songs from Carti’s album. Roan's earlier hit, "Pink Pony Club," continues to perform well, indicating that it might rank higher than "The Giver" on the Hot 100 next week. Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s song "Luther" has been performing well, maintaining its position at the top of the Hot 100. It has also shown strength on streaming and radio charts. Lamar’s collaborations on Carti’s album may contribute to his ongoing success. Drake’s song "Nokia" is also catching attention, climbing in the charts despite being overshadowed by his other track "Gimme a Hug." "Nokia" is starting to receive more radio play, indicating a potential rise in popularity. As the chart changes unfold, it remains to be seen if Carti or Roan can challenge the current leaders on the Hot 100.
