Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s “Luther” leads the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart for an eighth total and consecutive week. The single, whose title celebrates late R&B legend Luther Vandross, who is sampled on the track, became Lamar’s sixth No. 1 and SZA’s third. Lamar and SZA each extend their longest career Hot 100 reigns with the song.
Meanwhile, “Luther” ties 24kGoldn’s “Mood” (featuring iann dior), which led for eight weeks in 2020-21, for the second-longest Hot 100 command among rap hits this decade, after Roddy Ricch’s “The Box,” which dominated for 11 weeks in 2020. (Rap titles are defined as those that have hit or are eligible for Billboard’s Hot Rap Songs chart.)
Plus, Drake’s “Nokia” rises 3-2 on the Hot 100 following the first full tracking week after its official video premiered March 31, and two songs enter the top 10: BigXthaPlug’s “All the Way,” featuring Bailey Zimmerman, debuts at No. 4 and Alex Warren’s “Ordinary” bounds 14-7. BigXthaPlug and Warren each earn their first top 10s, marking the first acts to reach the tier for the first time in 2025, while Zimmerman adds his second.
The Hot 100 blends all-genre U.S. streaming (official audio and official video), radio airplay and sales data, the lattermost metric reflecting purchases of physical singles and digital tracks from full-service digital music retailers; digital singles sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites are excluded from chart calculations. All charts (dated April 19, 2025) will update on Billboard.com tomorrow, April 15.
“Luther,” on pgLang/Interscope/ICLG, totaled 63.1 million radio airplay audience impressions (up 3% week-over-week), 22.7 million official streams (down 7%) and 2,000 sold (down 8%) in the U.S. April 4-10. The song is expected to sport gains on next week’s charts following the Friday (April 11) premiere of its official video.
“Luther” leads the Radio Songs chart for a second week and dips to No. 3 after six weeks atop Streaming Songs and 21-23, after reaching No. 4, on Digital Song Sales.
“Luther” concurrently adds a 16th week at No. 1 on both the multimetric Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Rap Songs charts.
