Blac Youngsta makes his debut on Billboard Hot 100.

It was a long time coming but Blac Youngsta finally delivered his debut album 223 back in February. It came at a relative short notice but he introduced the campaign with "Booty" which is officially his biggest song to date.

Blac Youngsta's "Booty" has officially made its entrance on the Billboard Hot 100 which marks his first entry ever on the chart. The song is currently sitting at 81 on the Hot 100 and has now reached 41 on the Billboard Hot R&B/HipHop Songs chart. The song received 5.6 million streams in the U.S. and also sold 4000 digital copies last week. It's a major mark for the rapper who's been working heavily over the years. 

The strength of Blac Youngsta's latest song and project has also launched him up to the top 10 of the Emerging Artist chart. The rapper went from number 29 to number 6 this past week.

There's a few factors that may have played a role in its success. For one, after he dropped the album, he unleashed the huge remix to the song which features Trey Songz, Jeezy and Chris Brown. In addition, he also kicked off a new campaign to help push his song "Booty." The rapper teamed up with Dr. Miami to offer a lucky lady free butt augmentation surgery. He explained that the campaign was to help build someone's self-esteem up. All one needs to do to be considered is to record a video of themselves twerking and tag Youngsta and Dr. Miami.
