@yourmusiceducationReplying to @samsavirgo Only 8 songs reached #1 in 1996, which is tied with 2005 and 2015 for second fewest. 2Pac (Tupac) achieved his first and only #1 just weeks before his life ended. Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, JoJo, Dr. Dre, Toni Braxton, K-Ci, Roger Troutman, and Blackstreet also topped the charts for the first time. And of course Los del RÃo (whom VH1 named the #1 one-hit-wonder of all time). The year began with with a 16-week run by Mariah Carey and Boyz II Men with One Sweet Day and also saw the longest climb from chart debut to #1 when the Bayside Boys Mix of Macarena reached after a 33 week climb. It held the record for more than 20 years and has only been eclipsed by Old Town Road and All I Want for Christmas Is You (the latter of which debuted in 1995, but finally reached #1 in 2019). Los del RÃo unsuccessfully sued Bayside Boys for plagiarism, which might have had catastrophic repercussions for sampled music had the court decided in favor of Los del RÃo. #musichistory #learnontiktok #music #oldschool #yourmusiceducation #nostalgia #throwback #throwbacksongs #90smusic #1996 #mariahcarey #boyziimen #celinedion #bonethugsnharmony #2pac #tupac #kci #jojo #drdre #tonibraxton #losdelrio #blackstreet #onesweetday #becauseyoulovedme #alwaysbemybaby #crossroads #howdouwantit #youremakinmehigh #macarena #macarenachallenge #nodiggity #unbreakmyheart
