Post Malone Claims A New Longest-Charting Hit

For years, Post Malone found incredible success in the music industry by switching genres. He first emerged as an exciting new name in the hip-hop space, collecting multiple diamond-certified smashes. He then pivoted again and conquered the charts once more with pop hits that are still played on the radio today. Most artists struggle to score several wins in one field, let alone several, but the Grammy nominee is an outlier, as he’s not afraid to mix things up, and his fan base is along for the ride.

His biggest hit of all – one which reaches an important number this week – is the one that helped him jump into the country space, which made quite the splash upon its arrival.

“I Had Some Help” Becomes Post Malone’s Biggest Hot 100 Hit

When Malone was preparing to release his first country album F-1 Trillion, he fronted the project with a superstar collaboration alongside Morgan Wallen. Malone dropped “I Had Some Help” in mid-2024, and the tune was an immediate smash. That track now becomes Malone’s longest-running hit on the Hot 100 as it earns its sixty-second stay on the tally.

“I Had Some Help” Beats “Circles”

“I Had Some Help” was tied last week as Malone’s longest-charting Hot 100 single, matching “Circles” with 61 frames on the list. Now, the duet pushes past the pop favorite, and it’s not likely to disappear anytime soon.

“I Had Some Help” is still present inside the top 20 on the Hot 100 this week, dipping from No. 14 to No. 19. The tune could rebound, after several newer arrivals begin to descend or disappear entirely, and it seems likely that the collaboration will further its lead over Malone’s own “Circles” and continue its reign as his longest-running hit for some time.

Morgan Wallen Nearly Matches the Same Feat

The same single is also tied as Wallen’s longest-charting Hot 100 success story, matching the 62 weeks that “You Proof” managed a few years back. In just a few days, when Billboard publishes its rankings again, it’s likely that Wallen will see “I Had Some Help” beat “You Proof” for good.
