On the current edition of the Hot Trending Songs chart, Billboard’s weekly ranking of the most-talked-about tunes on Twitter, several new tracks debut. The lowest of them arrivals comes from the popular pairing of Mew Suppasit and Sam Kim, whose new single “Before 4:30 (She Said…)” starts off at No. 18 on the 20-spot tally, and while that’s not a very lofty position, the fact that the cut is present at all helps Suppasit make history in a handful of manners on the list.
Here are three ways Suppasit makes history this week with his latest hit single.
The Most Hits Among Solo Males
“Before 4:30 (She Said…)” marks Suppasit’s second placement on the Hot Trending Songs chart, and with just two wins, he already stands out as one of the most successful solo male artists of all time (which isn’t very long, as the list has only been published for 10 weeks). The Thai singer first reached the ranking with his own “Spaceman,” which eventually climbed to No. 2 and held on for well over a month.
With two hits on the Hot Trending Songs chart, Suppasit matches BTS member Jin, Harry Styles and Kazakh performer Dimash Kudaibergen, as they have all collected a pair of appearances.
The Most Hits Among Solo Artists
Looking at more than just men, Suppasit ties with several other solo stars for the most hits ever on Billboard’s Hot Trening Songs chart. The Thai superstar is now on the same level as Taylor Swift and Lisa of the South Korean girl group Blackpink, who have also landed on the tally twice.
The Fifth-Most Hits Among All Artists
Expanding the scope beyond just solo musicians, Suppasit is still in a great position, though he no longer can claim to have scored the most hits. When including groups, the Thai talent moves down to fifth place, and he’s not alone.
With just two hits on the Hot Trending Songs chart, Suppasit is tied with Aespa, Ateez, NCT, NCT 127 and the aforementioned solo stars. Ahead of everyone mentioned in that group are BTS and Enhypen, with five charting tunes apiece, and then both Stray Kids and Monsta X, with three to both their credits.
