The holiday season came and went, and it was the most wonderful time of the year once again at Atlanta strip clubs. Patrons spread plenty of holiday cheer, while end-of-year bonuses turned into unforgettable nights with dollars flying to make sure it was a green Christmas in the ATL.
Billboard launched the inaugural strip club chart in August and will continue to track the top tracks played monthly at three prominent Atlanta strip clubs.
For those new here, Billboard joined forces with DJ Monitor, a service that installs music-recognition technology for venues and festivals, along with a contribution from the Coalition DJs, to collect data from three different strip clubs in Atlanta.
There was some new blood on the December strip club chart to close out 2025, as Pooh Shiesty earned his first entry with his comeback single “FDO.”
Club DJs adopted another Billboard Hot 100 banger into their rotations with YoungBoy Never Broke Again’s “Shot Callin” making its debut. The MASA anthem has been a Hot 100 staple for about four months. TM88 also picked up a club hit while teaming up with Future for “Quadruple,” which landed on the 808 Mafia producer’s F.I.L.A 25 project, paying homage to Atlanta.
As far as the artists who had the most real estate on Atlanta strip club playlists for December, the top 10 goes as follows:
No. 10, YoungBoy Never Broke Again (149)
No. 9, Gunna (165)
No. 8, Young Thug (174)
No. 7, Gucci Mane (181)
No. 6, Young Nudy (214)
No. 5, Jeezy (228)
No. 4, Metro Boomin (266)
No. 3, Bossman Dlow (318)
No. 2, Lil Baby (343)
No. 1, Future (716)

Last Month: No. 7
Peak Position: No. 6
“WGFT” earns a fourth appearance on the strip club chart, and the standout from Gunna’s The Last Wun featuring Burna Boy, which reached the Billboard Hot 100’s top 40 (No. 40), will receive another boost with Chris Brown blessing the official remix on Friday (Jan. 16).
-
Pooh Shiesty, “FDO” (50 Plays)
Last Month: N/A
Peak Position: N/A
Pooh Shiesty was released from prison in October and made his presence felt, celebrating his freedom before the end of the year with his top 20 Billboard Hot 100 hit “FDO,” which dominated the Atlanta strip clubs around the holiday season.
-
YFN Lucci & 21 Savage, “Pieces on My Neck” (52 Plays)
Last Month: No. 5
Peak Position: No. 5
YFN Lucci and 21 Savage three-peat on the strip club chart to close out 2025.

Lucci opens up about his hesitancy in embracing the new landscape of hip-hop since his release from prison last January.
-
YoungBoy Never Broke Again, “Shot Callin” (53 Plays)
Last Month: N/A
Peak Position: N/A
YoungBoy’s “Shot Callin” has been a Hot 100 staple for over four months, spanning the second half of 2025 and is still holding down prime real estate in the middle of the chart. Historically, strip club DJs have been quick to embrace bubbling tracks and then the mainstream would follow, but “Shot Callin” reverses the usual equation.
-
Metro Boomin feat. Skooly, Shad Da God & DJ Spinz, “Loose Screws” (54 Plays)
Last Month: No. 6
Peak Position: No. 3
“Loose Screws” makes another appearance on the chart and returns at No. 6 once again in December. Metro Boomin plays on the nostalgia of Atlanta in the early 2010s, while calling on a pair of underrated ATL rappers, who played a role in helping lay the foundation of the bubbling ATL scene.
-
Cardi B, “ErrTime” (54 Plays)
Last Month: No. 4
Peak Position: No. 4
As a former dancer, Cardi B’s music will always have ties to the strip club. The Bronx bombshell is back with “ErrTime,” which has spent nearly four months on the Billboard Hot 100. The track got an extra boost in November when Jeezy joined Cardi for a remix, and the Atlanta strip club scene has responded after the trap pioneer’s co-sign.
-
TM88 feat. Future, “Quadruple” (60 Plays)
Last Month: N/A
Peak Position: N/A
Teaming up with Future is always a smart move, as Pluto has been getting the most spins of any artist in the strip club. TM88 and the 808 Mafia crew have long been part of the fabric of ATL rap culture and he released his F.I.L.A 25 project, which pays homage to the A (Forever I Love Atlanta). Future blessed TM88 with a syrupy performance on fan-favorite “Quadruple.”
-
Metro Boomin feat. Quavo, Breskii & YKNIECE , “Take Me Thru Dere” (60 Plays)
Last Month: No. 3
Peak Position: No. 1
Metro Boomin has been the most prominent artist/producer on the strip club chart behind his A Futuristic Summa project. “Take Me Thru Dere” spent two months at the No. 1 slot and now posts back-to-back appearances at No. 3. The Quavo, Breskii and YKNIECE even made an appearance on the Billboard Hot 100, where it peaked at No. 69.
-
Metro Boomin feat. Waka Flocka Flame DJ Spinz, “Clap”(61 Plays)
Last Month: No. 2
Peak Position: No. 1
Metro Boomin has done a lot of competing with himself on the strip club chart. Metro, Waka Flocka Flame and DJ Spinz’s “Clap” closes the year with another month tied for the No. 2 slot. The St. Louis-bred producer paid tribute to Atlanta with his A Futuristic Summa mixtape and he might need a percentage from strip club DJs for the heat he’s supplied to their playlists the second half of 2025 and that trend looks to be continuing into ’26.
-
Belly Gang Kushington & YKNIECE, “Friend Do (Remix)” (106 Plays)
Last Month: No. 1
Peak Position: No. 1
Belly Gang Kushington and YKNIECE’s “Friend Do (Remix)” goes back-to-back months at No. 1 to close out 2025. The bouncy anthem is a natural fit for the strip club, and the pair of rising Atlanta stars are primed for an even bigger 2026. With 106 plays recorded, that’s the largest number of spins for a song in a month across the three ATL strip clubs tracked for data.
