Omer Fedi hits No. 1 on Billboard‘s Hot 100 Producers chart, leading for the first time thanks to three production credits on the latest Billboard Hot 100 (dated April 10), including this week’s No. 1 song.
Lil Nas X’s “Montero (Call Me by Your Name),” which Fedi co-produced with Roy Lenzo and production duo Take a Daytrip, leads at No. 1 on the Hot 100, while 24kGoldn’s former eight-week leader “Mood,” featuring Iann Dior, follows at No. 9 (co-produced with Blake Slatkin and K.Beazy) and The Kid Laroi’s “Without You” places at a new No. 31 high (co-produced with Slatkin).
Fedi, 21, is the only producer with multiple No. 1 hits in 2021, thanks to “Mood” (which tallied its seventh and eighth weeks at No. 1 on Jan. 9 and 16) and now “Montero.”
The two hits also make Fedi one of nine producers with multiple songs to rank in the Hot 100’s top 10 so far this year. The full list:
Jon Bellion (Justin Bieber’s “Anyone,” “Holy”)
Cardo on the Beat (Drake’s “Laugh Now, Cry Later,” “Wants and Needs”)
Omer Fedi (24kGoldn’s “Mood”; Lil Nas X’s “Montero [Call Me by Your Name]”)
G.Ry (“Laugh Now, Cry Later”; Lil Tjay’s “Calling My Phone”)
Oscar Holter (The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights,” “Save Your Tears”)
Max Martin (“Blinding Lights,” “Save Your Tears”)
Mr. Franks (Ariana Grande’s “34+35,” “Positions”; “Holy”)
TBHits (“34+35,” “Positions”; “Holy”)
The Weeknd (“Blinding Lights,” “Save Your Tears”)
Fedi concurrently places at No. 3 on the Hot 100 Songwriters chart, a new peak, as he is also credited as a co-writer on “Montero,” “Mood” and “Without You.” He’s also the only person with multiple No. 1 hits as a songwriter this year.
The weekly Hot 100 Songwriters and Hot 100 Producers charts are based on total points accrued by a songwriter and producer, respectively, for each attributed song that appears on the Hot 100; plus, genre-based songwriter and producer charts follow the same methodology based on corresponding “Hot”-named genre charts. As with Billboard‘s yearly recaps, multiple writers or producers split points for each song equally (and the dividing of points will lead to occasional ties on rankings).
