Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s “Luther” leads the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart for an eighth total and consecutive week. The single, whose title celebrates late R&B legend Luther Vandross, who is sampled on the track, became Lamar’s sixth No. 1 and SZA’s third. Lamar and SZA each extend their longest career Hot 100 reigns with the song.

Meanwhile, “Luther” ties 24kGoldn’s “Mood” (featuring iann dior), which led for eight weeks in 2020-21, for the second-longest Hot 100 command among rap hits this decade, after Roddy Ricch’s “The Box,” which dominated for 11 weeks in 2020. (Rap titles are defined as those that have hit or are eligible for Billboard’s Hot Rap Songs chart.)

Plus, Drake’s “Nokia” rises 3-2 on the Hot 100 following the first full tracking week after its official video premiered March 31
