Ye Bumps Beyoncé From the No.1 Spot

Ye, Ty Dolla $ign and Playboi Carti's new single "Carnival" takes the No. 1 spot from Beyoncé who spent two weeks at the top of the chart with 'Texas Hold 'Em...' 

From Variety 

After 13 years, Kanye West, also known as Ye, returns to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 with his and his “Vultures” collaborator’s “Carnival.”

The song’s entrance to No. 1 comes weeks after its debut on the all-genre-inclusive chart in late February, where it came in at No. 3 behind Beyoncé’s “Texas Hold ‘Em” and Jack Harlow’s “Lovin On Me.” The song, which features rap stars Rich the Kid and Playboi Carti, has been steadily rising in streaming numbers and leads the publication’s TikTok Top 50 songs list.

Despite the long-winded controversy surrounding West’s antisemitic behavior, the song and its parent LP “Vultures” have remained in the Top 10 of the albums and songs list in the United States since their official release on Feb. 9. With “Carnival,” West earns his fifth No. 1 in this decade and his first overall since his feature on Katy Perry’s “E.T.” (a 2011 release). This feat marks West as the only rapper to have charted No. 1 singles in three separate decades, with his first No. 1 being in 2004 alongside Twista and Jamie Foxx for the single “Slow Jamz.”
