Let's run down of the top 10 of the newest Hot 100, which blends all-genre U.S. streaming, radio airplay and sales data. All charts (dated March 7) will update on Billboard.com tomorrow (March 3).
"The Box," released on Bird Vision/Atlantic Records, posts a ninth week at No. 1 on the Streaming Songs chart, despite an 8% slide to 48.2 million U.S. streams in the week ending Feb. 27, according to Nielsen Music/MRC Data. It pushes 10-8 on Radio Songs, gaining by 6% to 63.1 million all-format airplay audience impressions in the week ending March 1, while dropping 7-14 on Digital Song Sales, down 10% to 10,000 sold in the week ending Feb. 27.
"The Box" concurrently rules the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Rap Songs charts, which employ the same multi-metric methodology as the Hot 100, for a ninth week apiece.
Future's "Life Is Good," featuring Drake, spends its seventh consecutive week at No. 2 on the Hot 100, encompassing its entire run on the chart so far. It also holds at No. 2 on Streaming Songs (40.6 million, down 3%), while surging 25-17 on Radio Songs (43.9 million, up 11%).
"Good" is first song ever to log its first seven weeks on the Hot 100 at No. 2 (after none previously began with more than four weeks at the rank). While the song could still, of course, ascend to No. 1, as of now it is one of 19 entries in the Hot 100's history to spend as many as seven weeks peaking at No. 2. It's the first to do so since DJ Khaled's "Wild Thoughts," featuring Rihanna and Bryson Tiller, logged seven frames at its No. 2 high in July-September 2017. (Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott's "Work It" and Foreigner's "Waiting for a Girl Like You" share the mark for the most weeks peaking at No. 2: 10 each, in 2002-03 and 1981-82, respectively.)

Post Malone's "Circles" stays at No. 3 on the Hot 100, after three nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1, as it notches a 10th week at No. 1 on Radio Songs (101.3 million, down 3%). It's the first song to reach double-digits weeks atop the airplay survey since Khalid's "Talk," which reigned for 11 weeks beginning last June.
"Circles" concurrently becomes Post Malone's first No. 1 on the Adult Pop Songs radio airplay chart. It advances 10-9 on Adult Contemporary, where it's his first top 10, after it topped Pop Songs for 10 weeks.

BTS achieves its third and highest-peaking Hot 100 top 10, and the highest-charting song ever by a K-pop group (and first such top five hit), as "On" roars onto the chart at No. 4. The single is from Map of the Soul: 7, which bows as BTS' fourth No. 1 on the Billboard 200, earning 422,000 equivalent album units, marking the biggest week for an album so far in 2020.
"On" previously reached the Hot 100's top 10 with "Boy With Luv" (featuring Halsey), which debuted and peaked at No. 8 on the chart dated April 27, 2019, and "Fake Love," which launched at No. 10 on June 2, 2018.

Now with three Hot 100 top 10s, BTS boasts the most of any K-pop act, besting rapper PSY, who has tallied two (and the only prior such top five titles): "Gangnam Style" (No. 2, 2012) and "Gentleman" (No. 5, 2013).

"On" sports the highest sales frame for a song by a group since Jonas Brothers' "Sucker" started with 88,000 (March 16, 2019).
On Streaming Songs, "On" debuts at No. 12 with 18.3 million U.S. streams. Meanwhile, the song's official video premiered Friday, Feb. 28, and its arrival will bolster the track's performances on next week's, March 14-dated, charts.
