Billboard Hot 100: Every No. 1 song of 2025

The Billboard Hot 100 singles chart measures the top songs every week during the tracking week of Friday through Thursday based on their combination of sales, online streams (audio and video), and radio airplay. Scroll down for the list of every song that came out on top in 2024, updated weekly.

The Beatles have had the most No. 1 hits ever with 20 different chart-toppers. They're followed closely by Mariah Carey, who has led the tally with 19 songs; she also holds the record for the most cumulative weeks spent at the top spot. Carey's 1995 duet with Boyz II Men, "One Sweet Day," once held the record for the longest run on top with 16 weeks at No. 1. But that was eventually tied by "Despacito" by Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee featuring Justin Bieber in 2017, and then finally bested by Lil Nas X, whose "Old Town Road" featuring Billy Ray Cyrus commanded the chart for 19 weeks in 2019. And in 2024 another country crossover track matched that with 19 weeks of its own: "A Bar Song (Tipsy)" by Shaboozey. But Carey may take back her record at the end of 2025. Her holiday staple "All I Want for Christmas Is You" accumulated 18 weeks at No. 1 going into the new year.

However, the song named by Billboard as the No. 1 of all time was the Weeknd's "Blinding Lights," which spent only four weeks leading the way but shattered the record for the most weeks in the top 10 with more than a year in the upper reaches of the chart. How much history will be made on the Hot 100 in 2025? Come back every week for more.

Taylor Swift, "The Fate of Ophelia"

Three weeks at No. 1
Oct. 18 – Nov. 1

Yes, Taylor Swift took the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 with "The Fate of Ophelia," the lead single off her 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, the week after its debut, but that was only one-12th of the story. The rest of the tracks on the album occupied spots No. 2 through 12, completing Swift's total domination of the chart at launch.

Huntr/x: Ejae, Audrey Nuna & Rei Ami, "Golden"

Seven weeks at No. 1
Aug. 16; Aug. 30 - Oct. 11

The demon hunters of Huntr/x climbed up, up, up — all the way to the top of the charts, eventually unseating Alex Warren's "Ordinary," which spent six consecutive weeks at No. 1. After a week back down at No. 2, Huntr/x was back on top. Of the several songs off of the KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack, "Golden" has appropriately flown the highest. 

Alex Warren, "Ordinary"

Nine weeks at No. 1
June 7 - June 14; June 28 - Aug. 9; Aug. 23

The singer-songwriter notched his first No. 1 with the track, which spent nine nonconsecutive weeks in the top slot.

Sabrina Carpenter, "Manchild"

1 weeks at No. 1

Overall, "Manchild," is Carpenter's fourth Top 10 single and the first off her new album, Man’s Best Friend, which is set to drop on Aug. 29.

Morgan Wallen and Tate McRae, "What I Want"

1 week at No. 1
May 31

Wallen celebrated a huge week for the charts dated May 31. Not only did his collaboration with McRae land at No. 1 (his fourth, her first), he held the top three spots on the Billboard 100 (the first country artist to accomplish that feat in the chart's history) and six of the Top 10. Additionally, his new album, I’m the Problem, opened at No. 1 with the biggest week of the year.

Kendrick Lamar feat. SZA, "Luther"

13 weeks at No. 1
March 1 - May 24

Lamar and SZA have held the top slot for 13 consecutive weeks. Lamar replaced himself in the No. 1 spot, knocking his diss track "Not Like Us" to No. 2 for the tracking week that ended Feb. 20. It's the sixth chart-topper of his career and SZA's third. His nemesis Drake released a new album in the same week, $ome $exy $ongs 4 U, resulting in two top-10 debuts: "Gimme a Hug" at No. 6 and "Nokia" at No. 10. But he wasn't able to challenge Lamar for the top spots.

Kendrick Lamar, "Not Like Us"

One week at No. 1 in 2025 (three weeks total)
Feb. 22

Kendrick Lamar is coming off a blazing two weeks. On Feb. 2 he won five Grammys for his Drake-demolishing diss track "Not Like Us," including Record of the Year and Song of the Year. Then on Feb. 9 he headlined the Super Bowl halftime show, where he performed the song again, with a vengeance. All that success and publicity shot the song up 14 spots back to No. 1. He actually had the top three songs in the country for the week dated Feb. 22.

Travis Scott, "4x4"

One week at No. 1
Feb. 8

Travis Scott released his latest single on Jan. 24, and it debuted at No. 1 on the Hot 100, making it the fifth chart-topping single of his career, following "Franchise" featuring Young Thug and M.I.A., "The Scotts" with Kid Cudi," "Highest in the Room," and "Sicko Mode." They all spent one week on top. Proceeds from "4x4" go to benefit Direct Relief’s California Wildfire Response Fund.

Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars, "Die With a Smile"

Five weeks at No. 1
Jan. 11 - Feb. 1; Feb. 15

This is the sixth No. 1 song of Lady Gaga's career and the ninth of Bruno Mars'. It surged to the top spot from No. 17 thanks to the Christmas singles dropping off the chart after the holiday season. The song was released in August and previously spent four weeks stuck at No. 2 behind Shaboozey's record-tying "A Bar Song (Tipsy)." Overall it took "Die With a Smile" 20 weeks to reach the pinnacle. It won Best Pop Duo/Group Performance at the Grammys, where it was also nominated for Song of the Year.

Mariah Carey, "All I Want for Christmas Is You"

One week at No. 1 in 2025 (18 weeks total)
Jan. 4

Carey has returned to the top spot for six straight holiday seasons. This time around "All I Want for Christmas" spent four straight weeks at No. 1, bringing its total to 18 weeks at atop the list. That places it third on the list of the longest-running chart-toppers in Hot 100 history, behind Lil Nas X and Billy Ray Cyrus's "Old Town Road" and Shaboozey's "A Bar Song (Tipsy)," both of which spent 19 weeks at the head of the pack.
