Charlotte Cardin Scores A New 'Feel Good' Hit On The Billboard Canadian Hot 100

It's a strong week for Canadian debuts, with Tate McRae's "Sports Car" landing in the top ten and "Lock" by the late Sidhu Moose Wala and The Kidd also landing on the chart.

Canadian pop singer Charlotte Cardin can feel good this week.

The Quebec star has a new entry on the Billboard Canadian Hot 100, with her 2023 single "Feel Good" arriving at No. 94 on the chart.


It marks her first new entry on the chart since last year's "99 Nights" — and like that track, "Feel Good" enters well after it was initially released, making its chart debut a year and a half after it appeared on her 2023 EP Une semaine à Paris.

The song is a mellow dance-pop track in a similar vein to her top ten hit "Confetti," but where that one was driven by party malaise, "Feel Good" finds thrills in pleasure.

With lyrics in both French and English, the song has taken on a new life throughout her international tours and with a global audience on TikTok and other social media platforms. It's specifically connecting well with French listeners online recently (especially in France). The new chart entry gives Cardin some good momentum as 2025 kicks off, and the Canadian singer — and Billboard Canada inaugural Woman of the Year — continues to expand her reach globally.

Also cruising onto the chart this week is Tate McRae's "Sports Car," arriving in the top ten at No. 9. The brand new song is the third single off her upcoming LP So Close To What. It's also the highest chart placement yet for those singles, with "It's Ok I'm Ok" peaking at No. 13 and "2 Hands" at No. 22, and has hit the U.S. Hot 100 at No. 21.

The sultry tune continues McRae's 2000's throwback vibe, calling to mind peak Pussycat Dolls, and was co-written by star producer Ryan Tedder, who also worked on McRae's No. 1 smash "Greedy."

So Close To What arrives February 21, and McRae will take her songs out on the road this year, coming to six Canadian cities on her Miss Possessive tour.

A third major entry on the Canadian Hot 100 this week comes from Sidhu Moose Wala, the late musician who had a massive influence on the rise of Punjabi music in Canada. "Lock," featuring producer The Kidd — whose credits also include work with Diljit Dosanjh — arrives at No. 54 on the chart.

It's the latest in a series of posthumous releases that also includes last year's No. 9 charting "Drippy," one of our staff picks for the best Canadian songs of 2024. The strong debut for the heated "Lock," with its ominous percussion and ferocious vocal, proves Moose Wala's major impact is still being felt.

The top of the Canadian Hot 100 is unchanged this week, with Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars holding on for a fifth week, though Travis Scott dethroned them in the U.S. The Billboard Canadian Albums chart is still ruled by SZA, too, though Central Cee debuts at No. 2 with Can't Rush Greatness — 7 spots higher than his Billboard 200 entry at No. 9.

Canadians are clearly feeling Central Cee's greatness — can he take the top spot next week, or will that go to a certain Canadian superstar completing his album trilogy? The Weeknd has been heavily promoting his new release, even making a surprise return to The Grammys — but for now, it's hard to say for sure. Hurry up, next week.
