Charli XCX & Dua Lipa Dance to the Top: The Year in 2024 Dance/Electronic Charts


The singles, the music videos, the remixes, the album artwork: it all paid off for Charli xcx, whose Brat album dominated headlines and topped the charts. She is No. 1 on Billboard’s year-end tally of Top Dance/Electronic Artists, and her lime-green takeover is No. 1 on 2024’s Top Dance/Electronic Albums ranking.


Released on June 7, Brat debuted at No. 1 on Top Dance/Electronic Albums and stayed there for every remaining week of the 2024 tracking period, notching 18 consecutive frames on top by mid-October. Since the chart’s launch in 2001, the only year-end No. 1 on the albums tally to come out later was Drake’s Honestly, Nevermind (June 17, 2022).

Charli is the fifth woman to crown both year-end charts, following Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, M.I.A., and Madonna. And following Beyoncé in 2023 and Drake in 2022, Charli extends a streak of year-end chart-toppers who appear at No. 1 without having ranked at all in the previous year. The last time that had happened was Lady Gaga’s breakthrough in 2009.


Billboard’s year-end music recaps represent aggregated metrics for each artist, title, label and music contributor on the weekly charts dated Oct. 28, 2023, through Oct. 19, 2024. The rankings for Luminate-based recaps reflect equivalent album units, airplay, sales or streaming during the weeks that the titles appeared on a respective chart during the tracking year. Any activity registered before or after a title’s chart run isn’t considered in these rankings. That methodology details, and the October-October time period, account for some of the difference between these lists and the calendar-year recaps that are independently compiled by Luminate.


Not only does Charli lead among all Dance/Electronic artists and albums, but she’s also the leading singles-artist of the genre. She doesn’t have the No. 1 Hot Dance/Electronic Songs, but she blankets the chart’s year-end wrap-up with tracks from Brat. “360” kicks things off at No. 6, and “Guess,” featuring Billie Eilish is No. 9. Four more album cuts are in the top 20, plus another three in the top 40, and another pair before the 50-position cut-off.


That means Charli boasts 11 songs on the year-end list. Dua Lipa, Odetari, and even Charli’s tour-mate Troye Sivan all land multiple titles on the chart, but none more than three. Further, she sports more songs on this year’s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs recap than any artist has in its history, dating back to 2013. Previously, Drake logged 10 songs in 2022 and Kygo scored eight in 2020.


Charli didn’t do it alone. Though the original iterations of each Brat track are credited exclusively to Charli, a series of remixes expanded her network and her reach. Besides Eilish on “Guess,” Lorde joins “Girl, So Confusing” at No. 17, and Troye Sivan guests on “Talk Talk” at No. 22.


A Brat re-release, featuring additional artists on 17 of its 18-deluxe-edition titles, was released on Oct. 11, and therefore impacted the Oct. 26-dated Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart, which is the first edition of the 2025 tracking period. On that chart, she owned eight of the top 10 spots, pointing to more success in the year to come. Drake, whose previous record was just barely beaten, had just one song on the weekly ranking by the beginning of the 2023 chart year.


But with “360” leading Charli’s pack at No. 6, a handful of artists shine in the top five. Dua Lipa is No. 1 on the year-end Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart with “Houdini.” She follows herself at Nos. 5 and 7 with “Illusion” and “Training Season,” respectively.


Those songs lined up at Nos. 1, 2, and 3 for three consecutive weeks in April and May. The Chainsmokers and Drake had each done that once before, but Lipa became the first act in Hot Dance/Electronic Songs history to block the entire top three for multiple weeks, stretching her streak across the charts dated April 27, May 4, and May 11.


“Houdini” debuted atop Hot Dance/Electronic Songs on the chart dated Nov. 25, 2023, and accumulated 17 total non-consecutive weeks at the summit. Beyond that, it only dropped as low as No. 6 for the entire 2024 tracking period, after spending its first six months in the top three.


“Illusion” scored two weeks at No. 1, while “Training Season” got stuck at No. 2 for two weeks, blocked by “Houdini.” These were Lipa’s first No. 1s on the chart as an unaccompanied lead artist, though she had spent 36 weeks on top alongside Elton John on “Cold Heart (PNAU Remix).” The combined power of these three tracks sits Lipa at No. 2 on the year-end Top Dance/Electronic Artists chart.


Lady Gaga and Beyoncé follow at Nos. 3-4, respectively, despite having almost no new material on the Dance/Electronic charts. Gaga’s last entry was Dawn of Chromatica, a remixed version of her 2020 studio LP, which crowned Top Dance/Electronic Albums in 2021. With no new dance-forward singles, she is absent from the Hot Dance/Electronic Songs round-up. But mainstays like 2008’s The Fame and 2011’s Born This Way both hold in the top 10 of the albums tally.


Beyonce did score a No. 2 hit on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs with “My House,” which spent 19 weeks on the chart through April. Otherwise, her high placement comes from the sustained chart success of 2022’s Renaissance, which spent 12 weeks at No. 1 in the 2024 window (of 57 total), and never left the top five.
