Which Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 debuts have you heard?

Which Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 Debuts have you heard?

They'll never let you forget that one time you thought Fleetwood Mac was a new band. Like, oops. It's not your fault that you're so popular and fun that you don't have time to listen to every single Hot 100 No. 1 debut from 25 years ago. If the song wasn't trending on TikTok in 2020, then it's probably not that cool anyway. If there's no other option in the world, then you'll get your turn at picking the music.

New Kid on the Block

You're doing the best you can to remain on the top of everyone's mind for the last couple of decades. You don't know all the lyrics and couldn't pick out these new artists in a lineup — but you'll dance your ass off to the beat. Does it really matter that you haven't heard of most of these Hot 100 No. 1 debuts if you're the life of the party? Nope. In charge of the music or not, you always set the vibe, the tone, and the bail.

Dying to Stay Relevant

You have mad haters, but it doesn't matter. You know what you like, and you don't have the time or energy to apologize for your tastes. Can you sit here and name every song you listened to in the last two decades? Not really. But you know how to get down, and you pay homage when the credit is due. It's in everybody's best interest to let you hold on to that aux cord because you always get lucky with your random selections. They're just mad because they ain't you.

Every Hater's Favorite

You're a music snob, but the best kind — one with immaculate and universal taste. Your opinion. You know your music legends like the back of your hand, and whether people want to hear music from the '90s, early aughts, or two years ago — you know what to select. Don't worry about someone not handing over the aux cord because you brought your own, and it's pink too.

The Aspiring Diva

Birthdays, bachelorette parties, weddings, AND funerals — you have it covered. You're everybody's first choice to make the playlist because you understand how to curate a moment. You basically know all the Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 debuts because you listened to them religiously when they were brand-new and beyond. You're well versed in _TRL_ and TikTok. You deserve the forever title of greatest musical ear of all time because you're the master of ceremonies.
