Will Lil Nas X be able to pull off the unprecedented with his first-ever hit single? What will his competition be? And who is he racing against historically?
lets you know everything you need to about "Old Town Road" and its pursuit of eternal charts glory. As previously mentioned, only two songs have outlasted 14 weeks atop the Hot 100, and both reigned for exactly 16 weeks: the Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men mega-ballad collab "One Sweet Day" , and Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee's Justin Bieber-featuring crossover Latin pop jam "Despacito" .
In its 14th week, "One Sweet Day" held a 1.3 to 1 points lead over No. 2, Mary J. Blige's "Not Gon Cry," while "Despacito" held a bigger margin over DJ Khaled's Rihanna- and Bryson Tiller-featuring "Wild Thoughts," leading by 1.5 to 1. However, "Old Town Road" has the biggest lead of the three in its 14th week, holding a 1.9 to 1 edge over the current No. 2 single, Billie Eilish's "Bad Guy.
This would suggest that even if "Old Town Road" is to be overtaken before tying or breaking the all-time Hot 100 record for weeks at No. 1, its primary challenge may come from outside the most obvious competitors at this point -- perhaps from a brand new song, or a song we haven't even heard yet.
Meanwhile, Lizzo's "Truth Hurts," which climbs 11-6 on the chart this week, continues to gain in all three metrics, jumping 7-3 on Digital Song Sales, 10-8 on Streaming Songs and 27-14 on Radio Songs. Both songs have a long way to go before catching up with "Old Town Road" -- and very likely won't get there in time to provide a considerable road block in its potential 16th or 17th week on top -- but both at least look to be moving in the right direction.
