Travis Scott Secures additional Victories as His Latest Chart-Topper Sets regrettable Records
Travis Scott's reign atop the Hot 100 was brief, with "4x4" plunging a record-breaking 52 spots this week. The song's fall from grace marks the most significant drop from No. 1 in the Hot 100's half-century history. Yet, the rapper isn't letting this setback dampen his spirits. In fact, he's adding another feather to his cap with "Reflections Laughing," his collaboration with The Weeknd for the latter's album, "Hurry Up Tomorrow."
"Reflections Laughing" debuts at No. 53 on the Hot 100, marking Scott's 121st entry on the list. Interestingly, this track finds a home in the top 40 on both the Streaming Songs chart and the Billboard Global 200, at No. 40 and No. 38, respectively. However, it stalls at No. 51 on the Billboard Global Excl. US, hinting at American consumption as a significant contributing factor to its success.
Scott's musical journey doesn't end there. He rocks another hit, joining hip-hop musicians EST Gee and Lil Baby on "Houstatlantaville." This tune becomes his 135th entry on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, which focuses on consumption within hip-hop, rap, and R&B genres.
Despite "4x4"'s humiliating fall, it manages to regain some ground on radio charts. It soars to new peaks on four radio-oriented tallies, indicating increased radio play. However, its performance on other lists, primarily those centered around streaming or sales, takes a hit. It seems fan interest has waned, probably as programmers and DJs start spinning the track.
The reasons behind "4x4"'s rapid decline are a subject of debate. Some attribute it to the waning hype around the song, intense competition, or lack of sustained engagement from listeners. On the brighter side, Travis Scott's collaborations with the Weeknd and EST Gee & Lil Baby are doing exceptionally well, capitalizing on current music trends and the artists' combined popularity.
