After a seven-week reign for Yeah Yeah Yeahs' “Maps” on TikTok Billboard's Top 50 chart, there's a new No. 1, as GloRilla and Sexyy Red's “Whatchu Kno About Me” tops the Nov. 30-dated list.

He had never been in the top 20 prior to the latter chart, with his best being at No. 24 in the November 23 survey.
So, why now? Although “Whatchu Kno About Me” initially benefited from uploads from high-profile stars like Taylor Swift, the song's rapid rise is due to trend emphasizing GloRilla's “B—h, I'm from Memphis, what you know about me/ Big GLO in that GLE” line, which is usually set to lip synchs.
GloRilla earns her first No. 1 on the TikTok Billboard Top 50, which began in September 2023. Among eight appearances, her previous best was No. 17 with “Hollon” earlier this month. Sexyy Red, meanwhile, has her second skipper, as “SkeeYee” was the inaugural No. 1 on the chart (though he's had a breakthrough since then when he peaked at No. 2 with Drake's “U My Everything” in June.

A pair of debuts round out the top four: Gia Margaret's “Hinoki Wood” enters at No. 3 as her first appearance on the TikTok Billboard Top 50, while Nicki Minaj's “Anaconda” bows at No. 4.

Other times, said “chill guy dog” is superintendent in the photos of the creators to show how relaxed they are.
Meanwhile, “Anaconda,” from Minaj's 2014 album; The pink printit goes up simultaneously with a 10th anniversary reissue of the full-length that was released on November 22nd. But the rise of TikTok is through #womeninmalefields trend in which women ask what would happen if they did the same thing a man often does to them in a relationship.
“Hinoki Wood” jumps 82% in streams to 310,000 in the week ending Nov. 21, while “Anaconda” is up 16% to 818,000.
Two other songs entered the top 10 for the first time. First up is The Marias, whose “No One Noticed” reaches No. 6 in its ninth week on the chart, following a previous peak of No. 28. It benefits from a new extended edition, with the Spanish version scoring the lion's share of the engagement.

Next comes NLE Choppa's “Gang Baby,” which debuts at No. 9 two months after the song premiered as part of the rapper Slut Szn album in September. His initial earnings on the platform were through a dance challenge promoted by NLE Choppa himself, though more choreographed dance has taken over the last few weeks.
