Michael Jackson's timeless music continues to make waves on global music charts, with two of his celebrated singles achieving new peak positions on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. tally.
"Billie Jean" danced its way from the No. 3 position to No. 2, narrowly missing the top spot, which was held by BTS. Simultaneously, "Chicago" also hit a new high, advancing 14 spaces to settle at No. 86.
These achievements for "Billie Jean," which has been on the chart for 132 weeks, and "Chicago," a more recent entry inspired by the biopic "Michael," contrast with the performance of Jackson's other 13 tracks on the Global Excl. U.S. chart, which saw declines this week.
Meanwhile, rapper Drake made a significant chart entry, debuting 22 songs on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. His highest-ranking debut was "Janice STFU" at No. 5, and he secured multiple spots within the top 10.
