Beyoncé earns her 21st top ten single on the Billboard Hot 100 chart this week.
Her current single “Cuff It” jumps from No. 38 to No. 10, furthering Beyoncé’s feat as one of 23 artists (soloist and group) to pull 20 or more top 10 Hot 100 hits.
Beyoncé achieved the latter Hot 100 record with “Break My Soul,” the liberating anthem from her platinum-selling and award-winning album Renaissance.
The Grammy-nominated song, co-written and co-produced by The-Dream and Tricky Stewart, advanced to No. 1 in the Aug. 13, 2022, issue.
“Cuff It” debuted at No. 13 on the Hot 100 during the same week “Break My Soul” rose to the summit. It’s the highest debut on the popular singles chart for any song from Renaissance.
The starting Hot 100 results could have been different for “Break My Soul,” which debuted at No. 15 the week that ended June 27, 2022, after only three days of tracking.
“Cuff It,” co-produced by Beyoncé, Raphael Saadiq, The-Dream, Nova Wav and Rissi, achieved No. 1 status simultaneously on R&B, urban and rhythmic radio formats.
Billboard No. 1 sightings for “Cuff It” are also noted on the following charts:
- R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales — No. 1 for 3 weeks
- R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay — No. 1 for 2 weeks
- Rhythmic Airplay — No. 1 for one week
On Spotify, “Cuff It” has amassed more than 312 million streams since releasing July 29.

More than 2.6 million TikTok videos have been created using audio from “Cuff It,” an 18% increase since we last reported in early December 2022.
