The Billboard Hot 100 was a whole mess last week as Tekashi 6ix9ine was battling Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande for the top spot on the chart. Fast forward seven days and neither one of those two songs, "GOOBA" and "Stuck With U", are even in the Top 10. 

For the first time ever, Megan Thee Stallion has a #1 single as "Savage" with Beyoncé has officially been launched to the top. In its tenth week on the Hot 100, the song rises four spots to reach #1.

With "Savage" topping the chart, history has been made again as two all-female collaborations have been #1 in the same year. This is the first year that has ever happened.

It is followed directly by Doja Cat and Nicki Minaj's collaboration for "Say So." The song remains at #2 despite the current controversies facing the Los Angeles singer. 

Elsewhere on the Billboard Hot 100, DaBaby earns his highest-charting single of all-time as "ROCKSTAR" with Roddy Ricch has surpassed "Suge," clocking in at #4. 

The usual culprits remain on the chart with Post Malone's "Circles," Roddy Ricch's "The Box," Future and Drake's "Life Is Good," and other songs all keeping their places in the Hot 100.

Congratulations to Megan Thee Stallion and Beyoncé on their new #1!
