Shaboozey Extends His Record at No. 1 on the Billboard Canadian Hot 100 Despite Moving to No. 2 in the U.S.

The record-breaking "A Bar Song (Tipsy)" has fallen to No. 2 south of the border, but in Canada it celebrates its 22nd week at the top of the Canadian Hot 100. With Bruno Mars and ROSÉ landing a No. 2 debut, Shaboozey has some new competition.

"A Bar Song" is still going strong in Canada — though it tipped out of the top spot in the U.S this week.

Shaboozey holds on to No. 1 on the Billboard Canadian Hot 100 with "A Bar Song (Tipsy)" notching its 22nd week at No. 1 on the chart dated Nov. 2.


His reign on the U.S. Hot 100 has come to an end, dethroned after 15 weeks by Morgan Wallen's new single "Love Somebody," which debuted atop the chart. But Shaboozey has different competition in Canada.

"Love Somebody" arrived at No. 4 on the Canadian Hot 100, but the bigger threat to Shaboozey's record appears to be ROSÉ and Bruno Mars' new collab "APT." The song has hit No. 2 in its first week on the Canadian Hot 100.

BLACKPINK member ROSÉ and 21st century hitmaker Mars team up for a peppy single that brings some "Mickey you're so fine" energy in the verses and an impassioned plea in the choruses: "don't you want me like I want you baby?"

The No. 2 debut marks a higher chart peak than any BLACKPINK singles. Could the combo of rising solo artist ROSÉ and superstar Mars be a recipe for a No. 1 hit?

These Were Canada's No. 1 Songs and Albums in 2016

As everyone on social media yearns for a decade ago, we take a look at the landmark year for Canadian music when the Billboard Canadian Hot 100 and Canadian Albums charts were ruled by Justin Bieber, Drake, The Weeknd, Alessia Cara and more.

The year is 2016: skinny jeans are in style, Instagram photo filters are all the rage, TikTok doesn't exist and Canadian artists are ruling the Billboard charts.

A decade later, many are yearning for the recent past. Decade-old photo carousels have flooded social media feeds. Somehow, 2016 is the latest trend to take over Instagram and TikTok, nostalgically romanticizing a pre-pandemic world before AI ruled, the world, brainrot wasn't a thing and basic human rights weren’t being stripped stateside (though there was also a notable election that year).
