Lizzo Returns To #1 With Disputed Track “Truth Hurts”

(AllHipHop News) Lizzo has returned to the top of the U.S. pop charts to tie the longest run at number one for a rap track by a female.

The hitmaker feared she had missed her chance to tie Iggy Azalea’s seven-week record with “Truth Hurts” when the track was toppled by Travis Scott’s “Highest in the Room” last week, but it appears her summer hit has enjoyed a spike, taking it back to the top of the Billboard Hot 100.

Iggy Azalea first hit seven weeks at the top of the countdown with “Fancy.”

Cardi B and Lauryn Hill are the only other female rappers to spend multiple weeks at number one with one track.

Meanwhile, Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello’s “Senorita” has rebounded to two on the Hot 100, while Lewis Capaldi’s “Someone You Loved” returns to three.

Post Malone’s “Circles” and Chris Brown’s “No Guidance” round out the top five.

Last week, two songwriters accused Lizzo of stiffing them out of royalties she is earning from the success of “Truth Hurts.”

Brothers Justin and Jeremiah Raisen maintain they helped Lizzo write the song but received no credit.
