"Popular" is a song by Canadian singer the Weeknd, American rapper Playboi Carti, and American singer Madonna. It was released on June 2, 2023, through XO and Republic Records, originally serving as the second single from The Idol, Vol. 1, the now scrapped soundtrack album to the Weeknd's HBO television series, The Idol. The song was later included on the 2024 deluxe edition of the Weeknd's greatest hits album The Highlights (2021). An R&B song, it was written by the Weeknd and Playboi Carti with producers Metro Boomin, Mike Dean, and Tommy Rush, alongside The Idol co-creator Sam Levinson, Michael Walker, and John Flippin.
Commercially, "Popular" charted within the top 10 in the Weeknd's home country of Canada, Australia, Japan, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom, and it became a top 20 hit in countries such as Switzerland, Belgium, Ireland, India and Lithuania. "Popular" was certified gold in New Zealand, United Kingdom, France, Italy and other music markets. In the United States, "Popular" was certified platinum in June 2024. The song earned positive reviews from music critics. Upon its release, it was picked up as one of the best songs of the year at that point by Rolling Stone.
Background
[edit]On May 31, 2023, the Weeknd announced that The Idol, Vol. 1, the accompanying soundtrack for the HBO drama series The Idol due for release on June 30, would include a single by himself, Madonna and Playboi Carti, titled "Popular".[1] A snippet of the song was first teased at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival, where the series premiered on May 22, 2023.[2] The song was officially released as the soundtrack's second single on June 2.[3][4]
Originally a collaboration between only the Weeknd and Playboi Carti, and with a different version prior to Madonna, in an interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1, the Weeknd said "I've always wanted to work with her".[5][6] He continued saying: "She's the ultimate co-sign for this song, for this album, and for this TV show. And you'll hear more of her in the show as well too. She is the ultimate pop star".[7]
On January 26, 2024, after seeing a resurgence in commercial performance, an EP with multiple versions of the single was released.[8]
Composition
[edit]"Popular" is a midtempo R&B song,[9] whose lyrics give allusion to the "allure and pitfalls of fame and fortune" referring to a woman that “will do anything to achieve celebrity status".[10][11] Starr Bowenbank from Billboard called the song a "slinky track", laden with "booming synth instrumentals and plinking percussion" reminiscent of early 2000s R&B urban pop.[12]
Critical reception
[edit]"Popular" was well received by music critics. In a positive review for Billboard, Jason Lipshutz wrote: "The Weeknd, Madonna and Playboi Carti function like Kendall, Shiv and Roman pre-boardroom drama: what looks like an odd collection of artists on paper complement each other nicely, with The Weeknd and Madonna providing pop flourishes over plinking rhythms and Carti accentuating the song with some of his trademark mumbling to polish off what could be a kicky summer song".[13] Remarking on its lyrics, Jennifer Zhan of Vulture hailed the song a new anthem for "clout chasers".[10] Sebas E. Alonso from Jenesaispop complimented the song, and said sounds a bit like Madonna and Michael Jackson's dream collaboration.[14] American Songwriter's Thomas Galindo called the Weeknd's verse "ingenious"; Madonna's "a standout moment"; and noted how the song is able to use Playboi Carti's "squeaky-voiced bridge to the fullest", despite a minimal contribution.[15] Kevin Bourne from Shifter Magazine called it "a surprising treat that we didn't know we wanted".[16]
Upon release, "Popular" won a poll conducted by Billboard as reader's favorite new music release of the week.[17] On June 14, 2023, Rolling Stone picked it as one of the best songs of the year so far.[18]
Commercial performance
[edit]"Popular" debuted and peaked at number 43 on the Billboard Hot 100 with 10.1 million official streams, 2 million airplay audience impressions and 4,000 copies sold in its first week, according to Luminate.[19] The song gave Madonna her first Hot 100 chart entry in approximately eight years since "Bitch I'm Madonna" (2015), her highest-peaking in 11 years since "Give Me All Your Luvin'" (2012), and her 58th entry overall.[20][21] The debut of "Popular" made Madonna one of few artists to have a Hot 100 entry across five consecutive decades, and the second woman to achieve the feat after Cher.[19] "Popular" lasted on the charts for 19 weeks. The song also marks Madonna's first R&B number-one song on a Billboard chart, topping the component R&B Digital Song Sales.[22] On June 20, 2024, the song was certified platinum, which became Madonna's first song to achieve this since "4 Minutes" (2008).[23]
In the United Kingdom, "Popular" peaked at number 10, becoming Madonna's highest-peaking single in the UK since "Celebration" reached number three in 2009 and her 64th top-ten hit across four non-consecutive decades.[24] This extended Madonna's record for the female artist with the most top-ten songs on the chart.[24] It also marked Playboi Carti's first top-ten and the Weeknd's 16th top-ten single in the country.[24] "Popular" debuted within the top 30 in a number of countries, including Iceland,[25] India,[26] Lithuania,[27] Romania,[28] Switzerland[29] and also Canada, Australia,[30] and New Zealand,[31] where it debuted in the top-ten.[32]
Music video and live performance
[edit]To accompany its release, the Weeknd uploaded a music visualizer of the song on his YouTube, featuring a montage of clips and photos from the Cannes premiere of the series and the afterparty.[10][33] On July 25, in order to further promote the song, the Weeknd uploaded a live performance of the song on YouTube.[34] The Weeknd performed "Popular" for the second leg of his After Hours til Dawn Tour.[35]
An official music video for the song premiered on February 15, 2024, exclusively on Fortnite.[36][37] The video was filmed in August 2023, and features shots between the Weeknd dancing and drinking in Hatfield House, Madonna dancing and rolling around on a sofa in a high-rise apartment, and Playboi Carti dancing around an expensive car. The video was released a week later on YouTube.[38]
