Silk Sonic
John Esparza*The Billboard staff had a hard enough time choosing our 100 favorite songs of 2021, but now we want to know: What one track was your personal song of the year?
Silk Sonic topped our 100-deep list with their silky-smooth ’70s-R&B-revival jam “Leave the Door Open,” which also crowned the Billboard Hot 100 back in April, and Olivia Rodrigo isn’t far behind with “Good 4 U” at No. 2 — plus her other Hot 100 chart-topper, “Drivers License,” is at No. 11 as well.
Some other highlights from our list: Dua Lipa’s year-end Hot 100 No. 1 song “Levitating,” Lil Nas X & Jack Harlow’s chart-topping team-up “Industry Baby,” and Taylor’s Swift’s extra-long rendition of “All Too Well” from Red (Taylor’s Version).
You might be feeling SZA’s “Good Days,” Wizkid’s “Essence” (featuring Tems) or Kali Uchis’ “Telepatía” — or maybe something outside our top 100 altogether. We’ve given you a write-in option just in case your song didn’t make our cut.
So make your voice heard and vote below for your favorite song of 2021. (And after that, make sure to vote for your album of the year here too.)
Diljit Dosanjh is set to take the stage at London’s Wembley Stadium on September 12 for what will be the biggest European performance of his career.
The singer will lead a show at the legendary London venue, which can hold around 90,000 fans, making him the first Punjabi artist and the first Indian artist to headline Wembley Stadium. In 2025, Arijit Singh became the first Indian artist to headline a stadium concert in the U.K. when he performed at the nearby Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The Punjabi music icon revealed the news during his concert at Toronto’s Rogers Centre on Sunday, May 31. While sharing the announcement, he noted that he is now part of a select group of performers that includes Michael Jackson, Queen, and Prince, all of whom have headlined the famous stadium. Wembley is also scheduled to welcome major acts such as Harry Styles, My Chemical Romance, Bruno Mars, The Weeknd, and Bon Jovi in the months ahead.
Dosanjh’s most recent performance in London came in October 2024 when he sold out and headlined the city’s 20,000 seat O2 Arena.
Fans will be able to access tickets through an artist presale beginning June 10 at 10 a.m. BST. The general ticket sale is set to start on June 12 at 10 a.m. BST through Live Nation.
At present, Dosanjh is continuing his Aura world tour, with the North American leg having started in Vancouver in April. Since then, he has performed at several major arenas, including two headline dates at New York’s Madison Square Garden. The North American run will wrap up with back to back performances at San Francisco’s Chase Center on June 20 and 21.
In 2025, he released his 15th studio album Aura, and earlier this year he unveiled an updated version of “Senorita” alongside J Balvin. In May, he made his debut appearance at the Met Gala in New York, while in April he returned to The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon for a second appearance to promote his latest EP, The Call of the Panjab.
