The 2024 Triple J Hottest 100 was broadcast on 25 January 2025. It was the 32nd annual countdown of the most popular songs of the year, as voted by listeners of Australian youth radio station Triple J. Two days later, on 27 January, the station announced the Hottest 200, counting down songs 200–101. Merchandise sales from the event will support homelessness charity, We Are Mobilise.[1]

Chappell Roan's "Good Luck, Babe!" was voted in at number one on the countdown, receiving the most number of votes in the history of the Hottest 100.[2] Meanwhile, Billie Eilish and Charli XCX scored the most entries, with eight each, breaking G Flip's record from the previous countdown. Over 2.4 million votes were counted.[3]

Background

The 2023 Triple J Hottest 100 culminated with "Paint the Town Red" by Doja Cat taking out the number one position. Meanwhile, Australian multi-instrumentalist G Flip secured seven tracks in the countdown, including number two with "The Worst Person Alive", setting the all-time record for most entries in a single Hottest 100.[4]

For songs to be eligible in the 2024 countdown, they must have been released between 1 December 2023 and 30 November 2024. Voting began on 10 December 2024, and will end on 20 January 2025. Listeners can vote for up to ten songs.[5] The official artwork for the 2024 countdown was created by West Sydney 3D artist Serwah Attafuah, who was influenced by Renaissance and Afrofuturist stylings.[6]

Predictions

In November 2024, Australian online bookmaker Sportsbet was favouring five key songs, with the lowest odds for "Good Luck, Babe!" by Chappell Roan and "Birds of a Feather" by Billie Eilish—both artists from the United States.[7] Meanwhile, men's magazine GQ predicted that "Not Like Us" by American rapper Kendrick Lamar would take out the number-one position.[8] Other frontrunners included Royel Otis' Like a Version cover of "Murder on the Dancefloor" and Charli XCX's "Guess".[9] In articles written before the countdown, some music journalists wrote of their concern over the possible lack of Australian music at the top of the countdown,[10][11] when "One Bad Day" by Spacey Jane was projected to be the only original Australian song in the top 10.[11] On 9 January 2025, Triple J announced that two songs in the top five were separated by only 0.05% of the total votes.[12]

Records

  • The 2024 countdown featured 29 tracks by Australian artists, a sharp decline from recent years and the fewest for an annual countdown since 1996. It also marked the first time since 1998 that more artists from the United States appeared in the countdown than from Australia.
  • The United Kingdom contributed a record 31 entries to the 2024 Hottest 100. It was the third time that the United Kingdom had the second-most entries in the countdown (after 2009 and 2015), and the first time that there were more British than Australian entries.
  • Chappell Roan became the third artist overall to both make their debut appearance at number 1 and also have no other songs in the countdown, following Denis Leary in 1993 and the Wiggles in 2021.[2]
  • "Good Luck, Babe!" received a greater number of votes than any prior Hottest 100 winner.[13]
    • Furthermore, each song in the top four received enough votes to have won the 2023 countdown.[13]
  • Charli XCX and Billie Eilish set a new record for the most appearances in a single countdown, with eight entries each, including one song, "Guess", on which they both appear. This beat the previous record of seven, set in 2023 by G Flip.[14]
  • Billie Eilish equalled the record held by Hilltop Hoods for total entries across all annual countdowns, with 25.[15]
  • Billie Eilish made her eighth consecutive appearance in the Hottest 100, having featured in every annual countdown since 2017.[16]
  • Fontaines D.C. became the first Irish act to appear in the Hottest 100 in twenty years, the previous being U2 in 2004.
  • Missy Higgins made her first appearance in a Hottest 100 since 2007, ending a seventeen-year absence.
    • Higgins's cover of "One of Your Girls" resulted in the song charting in the countdown for the second year in a row, after the original by Troye Sivan featured at #31 in 2023.
  • Taylor Swift made her first Hottest 100 appearance, featuring on "Us" by Gracie Abrams. A decade earlier, Triple J had disqualified Swift's song "Shake It Off" after a corporate-backed social media campaign promoting its inclusion in the 2014 countdown.[17]
