Atlanta strip clubs have long turned relatively unknown songs into hits, and emerging artists into superstars for decades. Gentlemen’s club DJ sets became a testing ground for the genre — and although the streaming era of music has significantly altered the music landscape, strip club DJs have continued to be meticulous about their playlists.
Billboard and DJ Monitor, a service that installs music-recognition technology for venues and festivals, has collected data from three prominent Atlanta strip clubs, along with a contribution from the Coalition DJs, tracking every song played during September 2025.
Billboard launched the debut strip club chart in August, and will continue to track the top-played strip club hits each month throughout the year.
Metro Boomin‘s A Futuristic Summa flooded the August chart, and the super producer continued to dominate in September, as Metro’s mixtape cuts occupy the top four slots.
Other artists making their chart debuts include PLUTO, Gunna, Belly Gang Kushington and Real Boston Richey, while Atlanta heavyweights Jeezy and Future are back once again.
As far as artists who enjoyed the most spins in the strip club for September, the top 10 is as follows:
- No. 10, Young Nudy (222)
No. 9, Drake (243)
No. 8, Gucci Mane (249)
No. 7, Moneybagg Yo (273)
No. 6, Gunna (274)
No. 5, Jeezy (326)
No. 4, Bossman Dlow (362)
No. 3, Metro Boomin (533)
No. 2, Lil Baby (574)
No. 1, Future (1,191)
