Mariah Carey Hits 50th Billboard Hot 100 Entry with 'Type Dangerous'
  • Mariah Carey has achieved a significant milestone with her new single 'Type Dangerous,' marking her 50th entry on Billboard's Hot 100 chart.

  • The song debuted at position #95 on the Hot 100 and serves as the first single from her upcoming 16th studio album.

  • Released on June 6, 2025, 'Type Dangerous' garnered impressive numbers, including 2.5 million official streams and 14.7 million in radio airplay audience in the week ending June 12.

  • Carey performed 'Type Dangerous' at the 2025 BET Awards on June 9, where she was honored with the Ultimate Icon Award.

  • If 'Type Dangerous' reaches #1, it will be her 20th chart-topping hit, tying her with The Beatles for the most number one hits on the Hot 100.

  • Co-written and co-produced by Carey, the track serves as a preview for her upcoming album, which will be her first since 'Caution' in 2018.

  • This marks Carey's first new entry on the Hot 100 since 'Oh Santa!' in 2020 and her first non-holiday song since 'Don't' featuring YG in 2017.

  • While Carey has participated in other top 10 hits, such as Drake's 'Emotionless' and Latto's 'Big Energy', these do not count toward her personal chart history.

  • In addition to its Hot 100 debut, 'Type Dangerous' also entered at No. 7 on Hot R&B Songs and No. 24 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs.

  • On the R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart, the song debuted at No. 7, marking the highest entrance for a song in nearly 30 years.

  • Carey has maintained a presence on the Hot 100 since 2019, largely due to the annual resurgence of her holiday classic 'All I Want for Christmas Is You.'

  • The official music video for 'Type Dangerous' premiered on June 14, 2025, further promoting the single.
