Lil Nas X’s ‘Industry Baby’ finally hits No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100

The platinum-selling hip-hop artist some thought was a one-hit wonder has scored another number one hit.

Lil Nas X is atop the Billboard Hot 100 for the third time with his newest single “Industry Baby” (featuring Jack Harlow).

“IT TOOK A FEW MONTHS BUT WE HERE! THANK U EVERYBODY! INDUSTRY BABY IS THE NUMBER 1 SONG IN THE WORLD! LESSSSSGOOOOOO!” Lil Nas X tweeted Monday.

After 12 weeks on the pop music chart, the Kanye West-helmed track is finally the leader of the weekly survey – thanks to two new versions going on sale earlier this month and all three versions being discounted to 69 cents, according to Billboard.

“Industry Baby” follows 2019′s genre-defying, history-making “Old Town Road” and the queer-themed “Montero (Call Me By Your Name)” from earlier this year.

Both “Industry Baby” and “Montero” are from the Grammy Award winner’s acclaimed debut album, “Montero,” which was released Sept. 17.

“Industry Baby” is Jack Harlow’s first number one single; last year, the blue-eyed rap star peaked at number two with “What’s Poppin.”

“My first number one. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t see this coming while I was writing my verse,” Harlow shared on his social media accounts. “Thank you for having me @lilnasx. This song is something I am gonna be proud to be a part of for the rest of my life. As for what’s next…buckle up…”

On Sept. 12, both artists performed the infectious track during the 2021 MTV Video Music Awards – before a backdrop that read “Montero State Prison.” The VMA performance was Harlow’s first and Lil Nas X’s second.

The song is the fifth number one for West, who co-wrote and co-produced it.

The billionaire mogul and failed presidential candidate’s last chart-topper was 2007′s “Stronger.”
