Bruno Mars’ ‘I Just Might’ Marks 35th Week at No. 1 on Hot R&B Songs
Bruno Mars continues his historic run on the Billboard charts as ‘I Just Might’ secures its 35th week at the top of the Hot R&B Songs chart.
Global superstar Bruno Mars has achieved a significant new milestone on the Billboard charts. His hit single, “I Just Might,” has officially spent its 35th week at No. 1 on the Hot R&B Songs chart.
With this latest achievement, the track—produced by D’Mile—has officially broken its tie with Leon Thomas’ “Mutt” for the second-longest run in the history of the chart. The song now trails only The Weeknd’s 2020 smash “Blinding Lights,” which held the top position for 48 weeks.
Since its inception in 2012, the Hot R&B Songs chart has served as a definitive measure of the most popular R&B tracks in the U.S., factoring in streaming activity, sales, and radio airplay. “I Just Might” stands as Mars’ fifth song to reach the summit of this specific chart.
Here is an overview of Bruno Mars’ No. 1 hits on Billboard’s Hot R&B Songs, ranked by their duration at the top:
- “I Just Might,” 35 weeks and counting (2026)
- “That’s What I Like,” 20 weeks (2016)
- “Leave The Door Open,” Silk Sonic (Bruno Mars & Anderson .Paak), 14 weeks (2021)
- “Finesse,” 12 weeks (2018)
- “Smokin Out The Window,” Silk Sonic, 11 weeks (2021)
Beyond this record, “I Just Might” continues to perform exceptionally well across other Billboard metrics, currently holding the top spot on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. The track was released in early January as the lead single from Mars’ fourth studio album, The Romantic, which debuted at No. 1 on the Hot 100.
Mars is currently in the midst of The Romantic Tour, a massive stadium trek featuring special guests including Anderson .Paak, Victoria Monét, Leon Thomas, and Raye. The tour is scheduled to conclude in May 2027 following a series of performances in South Korea.
