Desde a criação da parada Billboard Hot 100, apenas 89 músicas conseguiram estrear diretamente em primeiro lugar. O primeiro caso registrado ocorreu em 1995, com Michael Jackson e o single “You Are Not Alone”. A atualização mais recente da lista aconteceu em 2026, com “SWIM”, do BTS.

Drake e Taylor Swift são os artistas que mais vezes alcançaram a estreia no topo, com sete singles cada um começando a trajetória já em 1º lugar. Entre os grupos, o BTS lidera o ranking, com cinco estreias diretas; o grupo sul-coreano também é o único representante do K-pop a atingir esse feito na história da parada.
