The Weeknd’s ‘Blinding Lights’ Takes Over No. 1 Spot From Roddy Ricch’s ‘The Box’

Roddy Ricch has held down the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for a majority of the year but The Weeknd has bumped him out the top slot.

Abel’s single “Blinding Lights” will make its debut at the top of the charts, nudging the single from Roddy to the second spot.

“Blinding Lights” is on After Hours, which is also the No. 1 album in the country after a week that set the bar for the biggest opener of the year.

Overnight, The Weeknd dropped a deluxe edition to the album, which brings three additional singles.

Following “Blinding Lights” and “The Box” on the charts is Due Lipa’s “Don’t Start Now” at the No. 3 slot. “Heartless” from The Weeknd is at No. 4 and the top five is wrapped with “Circles” from Post Malone.
