00:19 Welcome to another week of Billboard News.
00:23 I'm Tetris Kelly.

01:29 "of his enlistment postponement.
01:31 "We ask you for your continued love and support for Suga
01:34 "until he completes his military service and safely returns."
01:37 Suga said in a reverse lie,
01:39 "Let's see each other in 2025, okay?
01:42 "Please wait a little bit."
01:44 Don't worry, King, we'll be right here.
01:47 And it's Monday, so you know we gotta talk about the charts.
01:50 Morgan Wallen ties Harry Styles' record
01:52 when Travis Scott earns a pair of top 10s
01:55 thanks to some friends,
01:56 while Barbie's reach grows even more.

02:04 Morgan Wallen's "Last Night" earns its 15th
02:06 non-consecutive week at number one on the Hot 100.
02:09 That ties Harry Styles' as it was
02:12 as the fourth longest run on top.
02:14 The only songs with longer runs are "Despacito,"
02:17 "One Sweet Day," and "Old Town Road."
02:19 Elsewhere on the top 10,
02:21 Travis Scott's collabs with Drake and Playboi Carti
02:24 claim numbers three and five.
02:26 And we gotta talk about Barbie.
02:28 It's been breaking records at the box office,
02:30 crossing the $1 billion mark,
02:32 but the album is seeing success on the charts as well.
02:35 Last week it debuted at number two on the 200,
02:38 while Dua Lipa's "Dance the Night"
02:40 lands at number 10 this week.

03:05 ♪ It's just how we roll ♪
03:07 ♪ I know what it is, what it is ♪
03:10 - How we roll with Chris Brown,
03:11 I mean, the vibe of the song so far,
03:13 I mean, just love, summer, all the things.
03:16 So tell me about creating this track.
03:17 - On this record, "How We Roll," it is a great example.
03:20 It's that feel-good R&B dance, you know, rhythmic,
03:24 just like melodic energy that you can play at a house party.
03:27 Someone said the house party off right.
03:29 And then of course, Breezy and I coming together.
03:31 This has been something that we wanted to do
03:33 for a long time.
03:34 It was, I would say, an artist's dream come true
03:36 for the both of us.
03:37 And our fans have told us that they wanted this
03:39 for a long time, so we're like,
03:40 we gotta make this happen.
03:41 And the moment and song couldn't be any better.

03:45 ♪ Oh, yeah ♪
03:47 ♪ It's how we, how we ♪
03:49 - One thing I wanted to ask you,
03:50 'cause I always think about this from the other side,
03:53 is that like black Twitter, okay?
03:54 That's what we call it, black Twitter.
03:56 And I feel like whether they're discussing future
03:59 or your amazing relationship with Russell,
04:00 or they throw the kids in it,
04:01 anytime any of you do something, it's a three-day debate.
04:04 Everybody's got think pieces going.
04:06 Do you read any of that stuff?
04:08 Do y'all laugh about it?
04:09 Do y'all like, did you see what these people
04:10 talking about today?
04:11 - Well, remember I said, "Sierra, she keeps it cute."
04:14 And you know, up there, Cece, you know,
04:16 sometimes she wanna, you know, say a couple things.
04:19 I think what we always say in life is, you know,
04:21 keep the main thing the main thing, you know?
04:22 So for me, that's always my philosophy.
04:25 I'm always focused on joy.
04:27 It is a little bit of that unbothered energy.
04:29 - For the full interview, head to Billboard.com.
