bbno$ has a knack for making the most of a moment.

The Vancouver rapper won the TikTok Fan Choice Award at the Junos this past weekend, and used the time to nab the viral moment of the night. "Elon Musk is a piece of garbage," he said, eliciting cheers in the patriotic crowd. (He also took the time to remind people his name is pronounced "baby no money" and not "bibinos.")


Already in the viral zeitgeist, he has another thing to celebrate as his song "Check" debuts at No. 75 on the Billboard Canadian Hot 100 for the chart dated April 5, 2025.

Built around a familiar sample, War's instantly recognizable "Low Rider" horns, the song's nonstop hooks burrow into your head in less than two minutes – though many are hearing it in even shorter 5 or 10 second chunks on TikTok.

bbno$ has had billions of streams on Spotify and TikTok for songs like "La La La" and "Edamame," with "Check" quickly racking them up too, so expect to see him continue his chart success.

Morgan Wallen's "I’m A Little Crazy" debuts at No. 24 this week, giving him six simultaneous songs on the Canadian Hot 100. Selena Gomez & Benny Blanco debut four new songs on the chart, joining "Call Me When You Break Up," which climbs to No. 43. The couple's new album I Said I Love You First, fittingly, debuts at No. 6 this week on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart.

BTS's j-hope, meanwhile, jumps onto the chart at No. 69 with "Mona Lisa." American alt-pop artist sombr, meanwhile, makes his Hot 100 debut (in Canada or the U.S.) with two new entries, "Back to Friends" at No. 74 and "Undressed" at No. 78.

ROSÉ and Bruno Mars remain at the top of the Canadian Hot 100 with the 2024 hit "APT.", which is proving to have a lot of staying power. Drake released his splashy new video for "NOKIA," a party song that has little to do with the beef, which could mean the song is on its way up. It sits at No. 9 this week.

Other Canadian artists on the chart this week include Tate McRae with six songs (the highest is "Sports Car" at No. 11) and anthemic roots artist Cameron Whitcomb, whose "Quitter" rises to a peak of No. 39 while his song "Medusa" re-enters at No. 88.

On the Canadian Albums chart, rapper Tory Lanez's Peterson is back on the chart at No. 88. The Canadian artist released the album from jail last month, where he's incarcerated for shooting Megan Thee Stallion.
