Mac Miller’s 'Cinderella' Surges on the Billboard Canadian Hot 100 Following TikTok Popularity

The 2016 Divine Feminine track rises to No. 31 after debuting back in May, becoming his second-highest charting song on the chart.

Mac Miller’s rising chart hit is ten years in the making.

The late Pittsburgh rapper’s “Cinderella” rises to No. 31 on this week’s Billboard Canadian Hot 100, more than a decade after its initial release on his The Divine Feminine album in 2016. The song first hit the chart in May of this year at No. 97 and has consistently risen since then, carried by a wave of popularity on TikTok. It hits its peak this week on the chart dated July 4.
