\n\tA week after holiday hits monopolized<\/a> the top 24 spots on the Billboard Hot 100<\/a>, a new record for seasonal songs from No. 1 on down, the latest, Jan. 10-dated chart is absent those titles (even if such chestnuts as \u201cBaby It\u2019s Cold Outside\u201d would still be appropriate, weather-wise, in many areas of the U.S.).<\/p>\n

\n\tIn their wake, Taylor Swift\u2019s \u201cThe Fate of Ophelia\u201d rebounds 28-1 for a ninth week atop the Hot 100, a new personal best<\/a>, and a flurry of titles hit the top 40 for the first time.<\/p>\n

\n\tLeading the songs that make their first appearances in the region on the Hot 100, RAYE\u2019s \u201cWhere Is My Husband!\u201d blasts 56-13, granting the British singer-songwriter a new career high on the chart. She previously charted in the top 40 with \u201cEscape\u201d (featuring 070 Shake), which reached No. 22 in January 2023.<\/p>\n

\n\tRAYE\u2019s latest surges with 18.2 million official U.S. streams (up 18% week-over-week), 16.1 million in radio airplay audience (up 5%) and 2,000 sold (up 31%) Dec. 26-Jan. 1, according to data tracker Luminate.<\/p>\n

\n\tHere is a rundown of the nine non-debuting titles that are in the top 40 for the first time on the latest Hot 100:<\/p>\n

No. 13, \u201cWhere Is My Husband!\u201d RAYE<\/p>\n

No. 26, \u201cNice To Meet You,\u201d Myles Smith<\/p>\n

No. 27, \u201cIs It a Crime,\u201d Mariah the Scientist & Kali Uchis<\/p>\n

No. 32, \u201cBetter Me for You (Brown Eyes),\u201d Max McNown<\/p>\n

No. 33, \u201cHouse Again,\u201d Hudson Westbrook<\/p>\n

No. 34, \u201cThe Fall,\u201d Cody Johnson<\/p>\n

No. 36, \u201cA Couple Minutes,\u201d Olivia Dean<\/p>\n

No. 38, \u201c4 Raws,\u201d EsDeeKid<\/p>\n

No. 39, \u201cAmen,\u201d Shaboozey & Jelly Roll<\/p>\n

\n\tNotably, Max McNown, Hudson Westbrook and EsDeeKid earn their first placements in the Hot 100\u2019s top 40.<\/p>\n

\n\tPlus, Olivia Dean adds her third top 40 Hot 100 hit with \u201cA Couple Minutes.\u201d Her other two join it in the tier: \u201cMan I Need\u201d returns to its No. 4 high<\/a> and \u201cSo Easy (To Fall in Love)\u201d bounds to a new No. 14 best.<\/p>\n
