Gracie Abrams Earns Her First Top 10 Single With ‘That’s So True’; Tyler, the Creator Leads Album Chart for Third Week
by Thania Garcia · VarietyGracie Abrams has hit a new peak — and a monumental one at that — earning her first top 10 single with “That’s So True” entering Billboard‘s Hot 100 songs list at No. 6. The Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter notches the career-first while simultaneously opening for Taylor Swift’s “Eras Tour,” a trek she first joined in 2023, and returned for in the entirety of the latest leg.
Following a significant bump in streaming and airplay impressions, “That’s So True” moves to No. 6 after debuting at No. 44 on the Nov. 2-dated chart as a part the expanded edition of her “The Secret of Us” LP (released Oct. 18). The latter previously debuted as high as No. 2 on the Billboard 200 album chart, but her highest-charting single to date — just a few weeks ago — was “I Love You, I’m Sorry,” which peaked at No. 19.

“It doesn’t seem weird for it to have been a deluxe track necessarily, but the entire situation is blowing my mind,” Abrams recently told Variety. “I can’t wrap my head around the fact that ‘That’s So True’ is having the life that it is right now… I can very confidently admit that it wasn’t some master plan. This song fell into the deluxe bucket because we didn’t finish writing it until after I had already turned in the standard edition of the album.”
“That’s So True” cracks the top 10 with 24 million streams and nearly 2 million in airplay audience impressions, per Luminate. The song’s success has also driven the deluxe version of her “The Secret of Us” album back into the top 5 in the U.S. at No. 4 with 52,000 units. Abrams previously notched two prior top 40 hits with “Us.” featuring Swift (No. 36 peak) in July, and “I Love You, I’m Sorry” (No. 19) in October.
The wider Hot 100 songs list is led by Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” which spends an 18th week at No. 1, inching closer to breaking the greatest number of weeks at No. 1 on the Hot 100 — a benchmark currently held by Lil Nas X and Billy Ray Cyrus’s “Old Town Road” (19 weeks at No. 1).
“Bar Song” does have one primary challenger, however, with Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ Grammy-nominated “Die With a Smile” trailing close behind. Not to mention: as of Monday, all of versions of the single are discounted in the U.S. iTunes Store.
And for a third consecutive week, Tyler, the Creator’s “Chromakopia” leads the albums chart with 104,000 equivalent album units. Also new in the top 10 of the new Billboard 200 chart, Tomorrow x Together debuts at No. 2 with T”he Star Chapter: Sanctuary,” marking the sixth top 10-charting album for the K pop group. The set — which was available for purchase across 23 different physical variants — earned 98,000 equivalent album units with album sales comprising 95,500 of that sum.
Elsewhere, Sabrina Carpenter’s “Short n’ Sweet” moves to No. 3, and Billie Eilish’s “Hit Me Hard and Soft” lifts to No. 5 following the announcement of a slate of Grammy nominations for both acts. Chappell Roan’s “The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess” is at No. 6; Morgan Wallen’s “One Thing at a Time” is at No. 7; Swift’s “The Tortured Poets Department” is at No. 9; Rod Wave’s “Last Lap” is No. 8; and Noah Kahan’s “Stick Season” moves up to No. 10.
