Harry Styles’ “Aperture” takes the spotlight on the Billboard Hot 100, debuting at No. 1.
The star (who celebrated his 32nd birthday a day earlier) earns his third Hot 100 leader, and second to debut in the top spot, after “As It Was” arrived at No. 1 in April 2022 to begin a 15-week reign. His first No. 1, “Watermelon Sugar,” spent a week atop the chart in August 2020.
“Aperture,” the top-streamed song of the week, introduces Styles’ fourth solo album, Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally, due March 6. His first three sets all debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200: Harry’s House (2022), Fine Line (2019) and Harry Styles (2017). (One Direction, with Styles as a member, notched four No. 1 albums in 2012-14, among five top 10s; “Aperture” is Styles’ eighth Hot 100 top 10, with One Direction having scored six.)
Meanwhile, “Man I Need” by newly crowned best new artist Grammy Award winner Olivia Dean, at No. 3 on the Hot 100, takes over as the most-heard song on radio, as it ascends to No. 1 on the Radio Songs chart.

‘Aperture’ Streams, Airplay & Sales
Released at 7 p.m. ET Jan. 22, followed by the premiere of its official video Jan. 23, “Aperture” arrives on the Hot 100 with 18.2 million official streams and 27.1 million radio airplay audience impressions and sold 4,000 in the United States in its first full week of release (ending Jan. 29).
The single launches at No. 1 on the Streaming Songs chart, where it’s Styles’ second leader, after “As It Was”; No. 19 on Radio Songs, tying “As It Was” for his highest start; and No. 4 on Digital Song Sales.
“Aperture” instantly develops as the 1,186th Hot 100 No. 1, and the 88th to debut in the top spot.
2 No. 1 Debuts in 2026
Reflecting warm welcomes for new music in 2026, Styles’ “Aperture” is the second Hot 100 No. 1 debut so far this year. It dethrones Bruno Mars’ “I Just Might,” which spent its first two weeks on the chart at No. 1 the previous two frames; this week, it drops to No. 6, while leading the multimetric Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot R&B Songs charts for a third week each.
This year marks the earliest that two songs have debuted at No. 1 on the Hot 100. It surpasses 2024 by three days, as Ariana Grande’s “Yes, And?” debuted atop the Jan. 27 chart that year, followed by Megan Thee Stallion’s “Hiss” on the Feb. 10 survey.
Two songs have soared in at No. 1 on the Hot 100 by the end of February in just one other year — 2011: Britney Spears’ “Hold It Against Me” (Jan. 29) and Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way” (Feb. 26).
Harry Dances to No. 1
“Aperture” concurrently debuts at No. 1 on the multimetric Hot Dance/Pop Songs chart. It’s the first song to lead the Hot 100 and the dance ranking since the latter began in January 2025.
“Aperture” is the first hit to top either of Billboard’s main dance song charts in more than two years, since Grande’s “Yes, And?” strutted in atop the Hot 100 and Hot Dance/Electronic Songs.
Columbia Nos. 1 & 2 on Hot 100
Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” rises 3-2 for a new Hot 100 high. Notably, Columbia Records holds the chart’s top two places, with Styles’ “Aperture” on Erskine/Columbia and “Choosin’ Texas” on SAWGOD/Columbia/Triple Tigers.
Columbia is the first label in 2026 to claim the Hot 100’s top two rungs, after being the last to do so in 2025, when Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You” and Wham!’s “Last Christmas,” both on Columbia/Legacy, were Nos. 1 and 2, respectively, on the Dec. 13 chart.
Before that, Columbia last achieved the feat (with other labels having done so since) in part via Styles: on the Aug. 20, 2022, Hot 100, Beyoncé’s “Break My Soul” was No. 1, directly above his “As It Was.”
“Choosin’ Texas” tops the Hot Country Songs chart for a 10th week.
Dean Dominates Radio Songs
As Olivia Dean’s “Man I Need” slips to No. 3 on the Hot 100 from its No. 2 best, it becomes the most prominent song on radio, rising a spot to No. 1 on Radio Songs (63.2 million, up 1%). She earns her first command on the chart, as the song also lifts 3-1 to become her first leader on Adult Pop Airplay. It ruled Pop Airplay for five weeks in January.
“Man I Need” supplants Alex Warren’s “Ordinary” atop Radio Songs, after the latter led for a record-tying 27 weeks. On the Hot 100, “Ordinary” backtracks 5-7 after 10 weeks at No. 1 beginning last June.
Brit hits: It’s a strong week for English artists in the Hot 100’s upper reaches, with Styles from Redditch and Dean from London. They are the first U.K.-born acts to top the Hot 100 and Radio Songs, respectively, since Sam Smith, who did so with “Unholy” (with Kim Petras), in 2022.
Rest of Top 10: ‘Golden’ & More
Elsewhere in the Hot 100’s top 10, HUNTR/X’s “Golden” holds at No. 4, after eight weeks at No. 1 beginning last August. It won at the 68th annual Grammys ceremony for best song written for visual media, marking the first Grammy victory for a song associated with Korean pop.
Taylor Swift’s “The Fate of Ophelia” falls 3-5 on the Hot 100 after 10 weeks at No. 1.
Rounding out the Hot 100’s top 10, sombr’s “Back to Friends” descends to No. 8 from its No. 7 high, while leading Hot Rock & Alternative Songs for a 15th week; Kehlani’s “Folded” slides 8-9 after hitting No. 6; and Swift’s “Opalite” keeps at No. 10, after reaching No. 2.
