Doja Cat Extends 2020s Pop Airplay Chart Reign With ‘Agora Hills’

Doja Cat‘s “Agora Hills” has given the “Paint The Town Red” rapper even more reason to celebrate, as it earns her yet another chart milestone.

Billboard is reporting that the track has earned the number-one spot on the venerated publication’s Pop Airplay chart, making it the eighth record by Doja Cat to earn the distinction.

That gives her the most No. 1 songs on that chart in all of the 2020s (her first was in 2020), and additionally makes her the only artist to top the chart in every year of this decade.

“Agora Hills” also gives Doja Cat a tie with Justin Timberlake for the ninth-most number one on the chart since its 1992 inception. Artists ahead of her on the list include Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Justin Bieber, and Rihanna.

The track previously spent two weeks at No. 1 on the Rhythmic Airplay chart.

“Agora Hills” is from Doja Cat’s wildly successful album, Scarlet.

Earlier this month, Doja teased and previewed a new track and told fans that their reaction would determine whether or not the song would make it on the deluxe version of Scarlet.

“I may play a song that’s not out yet that I am releasing,” she said during the livestream. “And if you guys don’t like it, I won’t put it on the deluxe. And if I don’t put it on the deluxe that will be fine but I need an opinion. I need an opinion from you.”

Though Scarlet was released in September, Doja has been teasing bonus music from the project for a while.

She recently shared a tracklist of unreleased songs on Instagram including “Acknowledge Me”, “Head High”, “Gang,” “Masc”, “Rider”, Urrrge”, and “Hungry”.

Doja Cat Almost Beefed With Another Artist Over A Bad Impersonation

Doja previously admitted that there were aspects of Scarlet she was not initially a fan, of including number one hit single “Paint the Town Red”.

Speaking to Ebro Darden after the album’s release, she admitted releasing the song was “strategic”.

“I thought ‘Paint The Town Red’ reminded me of like, Target or like Macy’s. It reminded me of like, GAP,” she admitted with a laugh. “I don’t why. It just kind of is that. And I know it starts with a curse word and it’s like a little bit edgy in that sense and I say, ‘I’m a demon, Lord!’ Like yeah, I get that, but that song just had a very pants-up-high vibe. And you know I think strategically because I can be strategic.”
