HUNTR/X’s “Golden,” from the soundtrack to the hit Netflix animated film KPop Demon Hunters, claims the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for a third week, while the music from the movie notches three Top 5 hits and a record-setting four simultaneous Top 10s for a second consecutive week. Saja Boys’ “Your Idol” and “Soda Pop” remain at their respective No. 4 and No. 5 peaks, while in addition to their chart-topping hit, HUNTR/X’s “How It’s Done” moves up one spot to reach a new high of No. 9. With three Top 5 hits in two straight weeks, KPop Demon Hunters joins Saturday Night Fever as the only soundtracks to achieve that triple-double in chart history. In April 1978, Saturday Night Fever’s three hits were the Bee Gees‘ “Night Fever” at No. 1 and “Stayin’ Alive” at No. 2, while Yvonne Eliiman’s “If I Can’t Have You” was No. 5.

The rest of this week’s Hot 100 Top 10 includes Alex Warren’s “Ordinary” holding at No. 2, Morgan Wallen’s “What I Want,” featuring Tate McRae, remaining at No. 3, Ravyn Lenae’s “Love Me Not” stays at No. 6, while Sabrina Carpenter’s “Manchild” vaults up seven spots to No. 7, fueled by the buzz for the pop superstar’s new album, Man’s Best Friend, which was released on Friday (Aug. 29). Teddy Swims’ “Lose Control” falls one spot to No. 8, and Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ “Die With a Smile” rises one slot to No. 10, becoming only the fourth song to spend a milestone 50 weeks or more in the Top 10, joining Swims’ “Lose Control” (76; 2024-25), Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” (66; 2024-25) and The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights” (57; 2020-21).
