"Belly Legs Po" Crowned as Unstoppable Summer Anthem of 2024 for Shirin D
German rap sensation, Shirin D, is basking in the glory of yet another chart-topping anthem with "Belly Legs Po". At 29-years-old, Shirin D officially claims the title of 2024's "Summer Queen" as the track climbs to the top of the charts for an impressive four weeks, according to GfK Entertainment, the chart trackers based in Baden-Baden.
Breaking new ground, "Belly Legs Po" triumphs as the first German-language summer hit ever recorded by a solo female artist. Previously, only three German-language summer hits were known: "Girl on the Horse" by Luca-Dante Spadafora, Niklas Dee, and Octavian, and "Layla" by DJ Robin & Schürze.
Shirin D's triumph extends to Austria (Austria Top 40) with a top position, and Switzerland (Official Swiss Hitparade) with a third, further solidifying her hold on the German music scene. As of October 2023, the track has over 30 million streams across all three countries.
GfK Entertainment attributes the song's universal appeal to a catchy, sing-along chorus, an enchanting melody, and an upbeat dance tempo that spreads positivity while driving the masses to their feet. Add to that the viral power of TikTok, where fans and other artists have flocked to mimic the track's dance moves, further amplifying its fanbase and exposure.
Shirin D's unstoppable ascent in Germany shows no signs of waning as her single becomes the third consecutive German-language summer chart-topper and firmly establishes Germany as the country to watch in the European summer music scene.
