The Weeknd has a lot of celebrating to do this week, and that’s because his single ‘Blinding Lights’ has spent a record-breaking 88 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.  Off of the album After Hours, Blinding Lights made its debut on the Hot 100 chart on Dec. 14, 2019 at No.11, and it now passes Imagine Dragons’ Radioactive, which has been on the Hot 100 chart for 87 weeks.

 

 

 

“Forever grateful to be able to experiment with sounds, try new things with my voice and create music with the people I truly love and respect. For the last decade every song has been a journey and to be able to continue this journey has been nothing short of a blessing. It’s the only gift I could ever ask for. I’ll be doing it for as long as I can breathe. I love my fans and wouldn’t be here without you. Big day for blinding lights. Multiple songs in the top 20. Thursday turns 10. Caesar turned 4 and the f*****g dawn is coming. LET’S GO,” The Weeknd says in an Instagram post.
