AceShowbiz - Doja Cat's latest single, "Agora Hills", has secured the top spot on Billboard's Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart, marking her first number one on the chart. The boost in popularity follows her energetic performance at Coachella 2024.
Doja's extraordinary career has taken a new turn as she scores her first number one on Billboard's Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart. "Agora Hills", a mellow jam from her latest album, "Scarlet", has ascended to the top spot after a surge in weekly plays.
This breakthrough marks a significant milestone for Doja, who has previously dominated the Pop Airplay chart with hits like "Say So" and "Kiss Me More". Despite her success on the Hot 100, she had yet to find equal traction with R&B/Hip-Hop audiences.
Her captivating performance at Coachella 2024 changed that equation. Doja's set included special guests 21 Savage, A$AP Rocky, and Teezo Touchdown, showcasing her versatility and earning rave reviews. The performance catapulted "Agora Hills" to new heights, resulting in a 19% increase in weekly plays.
The success of "Agora Hills" is particularly fitting, as it samples the classic R&B track "All I Do Is Think of You" by Troop. Moreover, Doja's achievement aligns with her shift towards a more hip-hop-oriented sound on "Scarlet".
The artist has expressed her desire to move away from her previous radio-friendly aesthetic, opting instead for a darker and more introspective style. Balancing pop elements with hip-hop influences, Doja has crafted a unique and compelling album that has resonated with both fans and critics.
