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?
