KPop Demon Hunters‘ breakout hit “Golden” has topped the Billboard Hot 100 this week, the latest success for the movie and soundtrack since its release on Netflix in June. The animated feature has shot to the No. 4 spot on Netflix’s most popular English-language films list with 158.8 million views, according to data released by the streaming service.

“Golden,” performed by the Netflix film’s fictional protagonist group Huntrix, is topping the chart seven weeks after it first debuted at No. 81 at the beginning of July. “Golden” took the top spot with 31.7 million streams, 7,000 sales and 8.4 million radio airplay impressions, per Billboard.

“Golden” is the biggest song from the ‘Demon Hunters’ soundtrack so far — Saja Boys track “Your Idol” came in at No. 8.  Last week, the Demon Hunters soundtrack holds six of the top 10 songs on Spotify’s U.S. 50 chart, and four of the top five. “Your Idol” and “Soda Pop” took the No. 2 and No. 4 slots there, while “How It’s Done,” “What It Sounds Like” and “Takedown” took fifth, eighth and 10th, respectively.

Elsewhere on the Billboard 100, Chappell Roan debuted at No. 3 last week with her latest single, “The Subway,” her second Top 5 debut following “The Giver” back in March.  Morgan Wallen and Tate McRae’s “What I Want” and Justin Bieber’s “Daisies” rounded out the top five.
