The Billboard Hot 100 chart for the week dated July 5, 2025, features a reshuffled top 10 as pop newcomer Alex Warren secures his first No. 1 hit, country powerhouse Morgan Wallen continues his chart dominance, and Sabrina Carpenter holds strong at No. 2.
Cardi B returns to the top 10 with her fiery summer single “Outside,” climbing into the No. 10 spot. The track is a defiant anthem blending Bronx bravado with house-infused production, marking her first solo top 10 appearance since “Up” in 2021. It also previews a potential sophomore album rumored to be dropping later this summer.
Teddy Swims’ soulful ballad “Lose Control” continues its impressive run, settling at No. 9 this week. The vulnerable slow-burn has been a long-standing chart favorite, powered by strong radio support and streaming longevity. Swims’ raw vocal delivery continues to resonate with a broad audience months after its release.
The high-profile collaboration between Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars, “Die With a Smile,” climbs to No. 8, fueled by an elaborate music video and a surprise live performance at the BET Awards last weekend. The retro-disco-pop track blends Gaga’s theatricality with Mars’ smooth charisma, delivering a bittersweet but infectious groove.
Shaboozey’s genre-blending hit “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” continues to capture summer party playlists, holding steady at No. 7. The country-rap crossover has solidified the Virginia native’s reputation as one of the breakout stars of 2025. The track borrows its hook from J-Kwon’s 2004 hit “Tipsy,” giving it nostalgic appeal with a Southern twist.
Kendrick Lamar and SZA reunite for the introspective “Luther,” which climbs to No. 6 this week. The track, inspired by civil rights themes and layered with jazz and gospel influences, has been praised for its lyrical weight and cinematic production. It marks the pair’s third charting collaboration and their most critically acclaimed to date.
Morgan Wallen holds the No. 5 position with “I’m The Problem,” a reflective, acoustic-driven track that leans into themes of self-awareness and heartbreak. It’s Wallen’s latest entry from his recent album American Nights, which has produced multiple top 10 hits.
Just above is Wallen again with “Just In Case,” a more radio-friendly country-pop ballad that has quickly become a fan favorite. The song’s narrative about lingering feelings and ‘what could have been’ moments has made it a staple on country and adult contemporary playlists alike.
In his highest-charting track this week, Wallen teams up with pop star Tate McRae for the emotionally charged duet “What I Want.” At No. 3, the collaboration bridges genres with McRae’s airy vocals and Wallen’s gravelly tone, capturing the tension of unfulfilled desires in a complicated relationship.
Sabrina Carpenter’s cheeky-yet-cutting single “Manchild” holds firm at No. 2. A viral sensation on social media, the track’s biting lyrics and glittery pop production continue to earn praise. It marks Carpenter’s highest-charting single to date, solidifying her status as one of pop’s most compelling voices in 2025.
Rising star Alex Warren enters his fourth week on top of the Billboard Hot 100 with “Ordinary,” a piano-driven ballad that found a deep emotional connection with listeners. The song gained traction through a viral TikTok trend and a teary performance on The Tonight Show, propelling the social media personality-turned-artist into mainstream music success. Warren’s raw, autobiographical lyrics have resonated with a Gen Z audience seeking honesty in pop.
The July 5 chart marks a transitional week as pop, country, and hip-hop continue to intermingle, while social media remains a driving force in what listeners stream, share, and sing.
