Migos and Lil’ Uzi Vert earned their first No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart with “Bad and Boujee” on Monday, knocking Rae Sremmurd and Gucci Mane’s “Black Beatles” from the throne.
Much like Rae Sremmurd’s hit single, Migos can thank the creativity and support of their fans who helped the song go viral with hilarious tweets and memes playing off the song’s lyrics.
It’s likely that the song will only solidify it’s position next week following Donald Glover’s Golden Globes acceptance speech in which he thanked Migos for making the incredible song. Backstage, he also called Quavo, Offset, and Takeoff the black Beatles of his generation.
