Kendrick Lamar & SZA Spend 10th Week at No. 1

Kendrick Lamar and SZA spend another week at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart with their smash hit single, "Luther..." 

From Billboard

Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s “Luther” tops the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart for a milestone 10th total and consecutive week. The single, whose title honors late R&B great Luther Vandross, who is sampled on it, became Lamar’s sixth No. 1 and SZA’s third. Lamar and SZA each extend their longest career Hot 100 reigns with the song.

An elite 4% of all Hot 100 No. 1s (46 of 1,179, dating to the chart’s Aug. 4, 1958, start) have ruled for double-digit weeks. Of those, “Luther” is the first by a solo man and woman and no accompanying acts – surpassing the nine-week reign of Diana Ross and Lionel Richie’s “Endless Love” in 1981. (Among other 10-plus-week No. 1s by co-billed lead male and female acts, Puff Daddy and Faith Evans’ “I’ll Be Missing You” — featuring vocal group 112 — led for 11 weeks in 1997 and Mariah Carey and then-quartet Boyz II Men’s “One Sweet Day” dominated for 16 weeks in 1995-96.)
