Roddy Ricch’s “The Box” keeps a dominant grip on the Billboard Hot 100, earning a fifth week at #1 on the chart..

Indeed, “The Box” parlays mammoth streaming, strong sales and growing radio to retain its standing as the #1 song in America.

Its closest competition again comes from Future’s “Life Is Good (featuring Drake).” Post Malone’s “Circles” holds at #3, and Maroon 5’s “Memories” spends another week at #4.

The first shakeup comes at #5; Tones and I’s “Dance Monkey” rises two places to take over that position. The position represents a new peak for the song, which hit #1 in numerous global markets (and enjoyed a record reign in the artist’s native Australia).
