BILLIE EILISH: Displaces Lil Nas X on Charts
Written by KingCnote on August 20, 2019
Early predictions got it wrong: Billie Eilish — and not Lil Nas X — has the hottest song in the country.
“Old Town Road” spent 19 straight weeks dominating the Billboard Hot 100 chart. On Monday, Lil Nas X congratulated 17-year-old Billie Eilish via Twitter, (quote) “u deserve this!!”
She pushed “Bad Guy” over the edge to surpass “Old Town Road” by releasing a new vertical video on Thursday.
Billie Eilish becomes the first artist born in the 21st century to have a Number-One hit. She’s the youngest since Lorde’s “Royals” ruled the Hot 100 in the fall of 2013. (Billboard)
