The remix spent 17 consecutive weeks at the top spot, beating Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men’s 1995 hit “One Sweet Day.”
“Old Town Road,” which was Lil Nas X’s debut single, initially landed at no.1 on the chart in April, after Billboard had removed it from the Hot Country chart.
The song has been remixed by Billy Ray Cyrus, Young Thug, Mason Ramsey, and RM of K-Pop group BTS.
Earlier this month, the single went diamond, becoming the first since Elton John’s “Candle In The Wind” to achieve the certification while at the top of the Billboard Hot 100.
