GloRilla & Cardi B’s ‘Tomorrow 2’ Debuts at No. 3 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs Chart
GloRilla adds another major achievement to her breakout year, as her collaboration with Cardi B, “Tomorrow 2,” debuts at No. 3 on Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. The track also opens at No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100, giving the Memphis rapper her first top 10 visit — and first top 40 hit. It also extends Cardi B’s Hot 100 top 10 count to 11.
“Tomorrow 2,” released Sept. 23, is a remix of GloRilla’s solo track, “Tomorrow,” which she dropped in July. (Both versions of the song are combined for tracking and charting purposes.) Thanks to its new version, “Tomorrow 2” drew 19.7 million official U.S. streams in the week ending Sept. 29, according to Luminate. It debuts at No. 2 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Streaming Songs chart and at No. 3 on the overall, all-genre Streaming Songs list. Sales, too, earn a strong arrival, with 9,000 downloads sold in the same period to enter at No. 1 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales list and the runner-up spot on the all-genre ranking.
Beyond streams and sales, “Tomorrow 2” scores its airplay debuts on R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay (No. 33) and Rap Airplay (No. 22).
Thanks to “Tomorrow 2,” GloRilla lands her first top 10 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, after narrowly breaking the barrier with her breakthrough single, “F.N.F.,” with producer Hitkidd, which peaked at No. 11 last month. Cardi B, meanwhile, banks her 18th visit to the top tier, and her second of 2022, after “Hot Shit,” with Ye and Lil Durk, a No. 7 hit in July.
Elsewhere, “Tomorrow 2” starts at No. 2 on the Hot Rap Songs chart. As mentioned above, the collaboration also enters at No. 9 on the Hot 100 and secures GloRilla’s first time in the upper tier. Plus, as Cardi B collects her 11th top 10, she also extends her top 10 Hot 100 streak to six consecutive years, a run that began with her breakthrough, “Bodak Yellow (Money Moves),” in 2017.
