Megan Thee Stallion's hit single 'Hiss' made a splash when it debuted at No. 1 on the Hot 100 earlier this year. However, its rapid decline on the charts has raised questions about its staying power.

After just a few weeks, 'Hiss' has dropped significantly, slipping from its peak position to outside the top 40. The influx of tracks from Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign, who currently dominate the charts with their collaborative album 'Vultures 1,' has further impacted the song's performance.

While there is still a possibility for 'Hiss' to regain momentum in the coming weeks, its current trajectory suggests challenges ahead. The track's sales and streaming numbers are decreasing, and it is struggling to gain traction on radio airplay charts.

Despite the initial success of 'Hiss' as Megan Thee Stallion's third Hot 100 chart-topper and first as an independent artist, its longevity remains uncertain. The test now lies in whether the single can sustain its appeal beyond its debut hype and secure a lasting presence on the charts.

As the music landscape continues to evolve, the fate of 'Hiss' serves as a reminder of the competitive nature of the industry and the importance of maintaining momentum to achieve long-term success.
