Superstar Pride notches his first entry on the Billboard Hot 100 chart (dated Feb. 25, 2022), as his breakthrough track “Painting Pictures” opens at No. 99.
The song, which the rapper released independently in October, debuts almost entirely on the strength of its streaming sum: 4.4 million official U.S. streams in the Feb. 10-16 tracking week, according to Luminate.
“G2G “Painting Pictures” just hit the Hot 100, Big Shout out to @billboard,” the rising artist wrote, celebrating his first ever chart achievement on Instagram with a screenshot of the song’s position on the all genre chart. “Grateful to be in the #99 spot.”
Superstar Pride (real name: Cadarrius Pride) is brand new to Billboard’s charts, and to the music world at large, having never appeared on a ranking before this week. He has released seven additional songs on Spotify, including his EP 5LBS OF PRESSURE (which includes “Painting Pictures”).
