It’s Been a Big Year for Big Songs — Will Post Malone and Morgan Wallen’s ‘I Had Some Help’ Be the Biggest?
Post Malone and Morgan Wallen's "I Had Some Help" debuts atop a crowded Hot 100 this week. How long will it reign from here?
Despite arriving at one of the most competitive moments in recent pop history — including a culture-swallowing Drake-Kendrick Lamar feud, massive viral hits from Sabrina Carpenter, Shaboozey and Tommy Richman, and even a record-setting Taylor Swift album (whose lead single Post himself assisted on) — “I Had Some Help” debuts at No. Sure, it’s a crowded moment near the top of the Hot 100, but Morgan Wallen had proven to possess the star power to slice through any chart competition thrown his way — after all, 2023 was a busy year in pop, and he owned the longest-leading album ( One Thing at a Time) and No. Maybe Kendrick Lamar and Drake reignite their beef, maybe a new musical war commences, maybe Billie Eilish’s “Lunch” grows even bigger, maybe Zach Bryan’s upcoming single really takes off, maybe Beyoncé drops Act III or maybe another song comes out of nowhere with monster streams à la Tommy Richman’s “Million Dollar Baby.”
