Graduation Posted Friday at 06:47 PM Author Posted Friday at 06:47 PM For the week ending NOVEMBER 16, 2024... • Lady Gaga infected the countdown with her "Disease" last week, as the lead single from LG7 reached No. 1 in its second week. Gaga has competition from her own "Die With a Smile," plus collaborator Bruno Mars' other smash-hit collab, "APT.," with ROSÉ. Will either of the three add another week at No. 1 to its 2024 total, or can Billie Eilish score an elusive first week at No. 1 with "Birds of a Feather"? • LISA and Tyla debut, and Tinashe returns.
