Alex Warren’s ‘Ordinary’ Hits No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100

Alex Warren’s “Ordinary” ascends to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the singer-songwriter’s first leader on the list. It rises from No. 4, after reaching a previous No. 2 best.

Warren becomes the first male soloist to earn an initial Hot 100 No. 1 this year.

“Ordinary,” the 1,181st No. 1 in the Hot 100’s 66-year history, rose to the top of both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts in May. On the Hot 100, Warren charted one prior entry, “Burning Down” (No. 69 peak, last October). Concurrent with the coronation of “Ordinary,” he adds his second top 40 Hot 100 hit, as “Bloodline,” with Jelly Roll, debuts at No. 32.

Before concentrating on music full-time, Warren grew a following in Hype House, a group of TikTok content creators that frequently collaborated. He signed to Atlantic Records in 2022.

“In my career, I have been so open with my friends who follow me,” Warren, who co-authored “Ordinary,” told Billboard earlier this year. “They know everything about me and we’re so connected, and I love that. I’m thinking of these people while I’m writing these songs, because I’m thinking about what I would want to hear if I was still going through that.”
