Billboard's Dance Moves roundup highlights the biggest movers and shakers across the publication's dance charts, including new No. 1s, new top 10s, and debut entries. On charts dated May 3, 2025, several artists achieve notable feats, headlined by David Guetta extending his record on Dance/Mix Show Airplay, ZULAN making her first Billboard appearance, Dom Dolla and Kid Cudi hitting the top 10, and Marshmello and Kane Brown reaching a historic milestone on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs.

David Guetta & Sia: 'Beautiful People' Hits No. 1

David Guetta and Sia's latest collaboration, 'Beautiful People,' climbs 3-1 on Dance/Mix Show Airplay, boosted by a 19% increase in plays during the April 18-24 tracking week, according to Luminate. The song gives Guetta his 18th No. 1 on the chart, extending his record for the most in the chart's 22-year history. Sia earns her second No. 1 on the chart, following 'Let's Love,' also with Guetta, in 2020.

Guetta's dominance on Dance/Mix Show Airplay is unparalleled. With 32 top five hits, 44 top 10s, and 67 overall entries, he leads all artists. His 18 No. 1s far surpass Calvin Harris (16) and Rihanna (12). The list of Guetta's chart-toppers spans from 'The World Is Mine' in 2007 to 'Beautiful People' in 2025, including collaborations with artists such as Kelly Rowland, Usher, Nicki Minaj, Bebe Rexha, and OneRepublic. His partnership with Sia has been particularly fruitful, with 'Titanium' peaking at No. 2 in 2012 and several other tracks charting.

Sia and Guetta have a storied history on dance charts. Beyond 'Beautiful People' and 'Let's Love,' they have collaborated on 'Titanium' (No. 2), 'Wild One Two' (No. 14), 'She Wolf (Falling to Pieces)' (No. 8), 'Bang My Head' (No. 6), and 'Flames' (No. 27). The new single continues their streak of producing chart-topping dance anthems.

ZULAN Makes Billboard Debut with 'Forever'

ZULAN enters Billboard's charts for the first time with her debut track, 'Forever,' opening at No. 22 on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs. The song, self-released on April 11, generated 630,000 official U.S. streams in its first week. 'Forever' is a sped-up dance remix of Clairo's 2018 song '4EVER,' showcasing the trend of reimagining indie pop hits for the dance floor. ZULAN co-produced the track with New York-based producer and engineer Aire Atlantica, whose credits include work with SZA, Doechii, King Princess, and Mariah the Scientist.

Hailing from Argentina, ZULAN has rapidly built a following through social media and live performances. She debuted 'Forever' at Coachella's Do Lab stage on April 12, where she also performed unreleased tracks, including a remix of Ravyn Lenae's viral hit 'Love Me Not.' Her entry into the U.S. market via a remix of an established song highlights the globalization of dance music and the power of remix culture. As an emerging artist from South America, ZULAN represents a new wave of talent breaking into the mainstream electronic scene.

Dom Dolla & Kid Cudi: 'Forever' Debuts in Top 10

Dom Dolla and Kid Cudi's collaboration, 'Forever,' debuts at No. 9 on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs with 1.5 million streams in its first week. Released on Three Six Zero/Columbia Records, the track gives Dom Dolla his 10th career entry and third top 10, following 'Rhyme Dust' with MK (No. 9 in 2023) and 'Dreamin' featuring Daya (No. 5 in February 2024). Dom Dolla, an Australian producer known for his tech-house sound, has become a fixture on dance charts since his breakout hit 'Take It' in 2018. His ability to collaborate with artists like Kid Cudi, who brings a hip-hop and alternative flavor, demonstrates the genre-blending that characterizes modern dance music.

Kid Cudi adds his third entry on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs. He previously charted with 'Memories 2021' by David Guetta featuring Kid Cudi (No. 31 peak) and 'Summertime' with Skrillex (No. 17 in 2023). Cudi's distinctive style and vocal style have made him a sought-after collaborator in electronic music, as he crosses over from his usual rock and hip-hop base. The success of 'Forever' reaffirms the commercial viability of cross-genre partnerships in the dance space.

Marshmello & Kane Brown: 'Miles On It' Reaches 50 Weeks at No. 1

Marshmello and Kane Brown's 'Miles On It' spends a milestone 50th week at No. 1 on Hot Dance/Electronic Songs, powered by 8.2 million in radio audience and 5.5 million streams. The song joins an exclusive club: only three tracks in the chart's 12-year history have reached 50 weeks at No. 1. It follows 'Happier' by Marshmello and Bastille (69 weeks) and 'I'm Good (Blue)' by David Guetta and Bebe Rexha (55 weeks). 'Miles On It' highlights the enduring power of a country-pop crossover into dance music. Marshmello, already known for his genre-agnostic approach, and Kane Brown, a country star, created a track that resonated across formats and maintained longevity.

The chart history shows that only a few songs have achieved such sustained dominance: 'Cold Heart (Pnau Remix)' by Elton John and Dua Lipa (36 weeks), 'The Middle' by Zedd, Maren Morris, and Grey (33 weeks), and 'Closer' by The Chainsmokers featuring Halsey (27 weeks). 'Miles On It' now stands as the third-longest-running No. 1, a testament to its cross-platform appeal and the accelerating trend of country-dance hybrid hits.

Marshmello's catalog includes multiple chart-topping dance tracks, while Kane Brown continues to expand his reach beyond country. The collaboration not only set a record but also demonstrates how dance music continues to absorb and influence other genres. With the streaming and radio numbers remaining strong, 'Miles On It' shows no signs of fading, potentially challenging for even more weeks atop the chart. As the electronic music landscape evolves, such long-running No. 1s become benchmark achievements for artists and labels alike.

This week's Dance Moves roundup underscores the vitality of the dance genre, from veteran stars like Guetta to newcomers like ZULAN, and from seasoned producers like Dom Dolla to cross-genre partnerships like Marshmello and Kane Brown. The charts reflect a diverse, global community where innovation and collaboration drive success.
