By Ashley Iasimone
j–hope feat. Miguel‘s “Sweet Dreams” tops this week’s new music poll.
Music fans voted in a poll published Friday (March 7) on Billboard, choosing the BTS star’s fresh song with an R&B veteran as their favorite new music release of the past week.
There was tough competition in this week’s poll, but the latest from j-hope managed to bring in 77% of the vote. Voters this week chose “Sweet Dreams” over new music releases from talent across genres — with artists in the mix including JENNIE, Lady Gaga, Doechii, Dolly Parton and more.
The single, which just dropped on March 7, is a top pick by Billboard readers just in time for j-hope’s solo debut on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Monday, March 10, where he’ll take the stage to perform “Sweet Dreams.”
It also arrives in the midst of his Hope on the Stage Tour, which kicked off in Seoul at the end of February and makes its way to Brooklyn later this week. Dates in Chicago, Mexico City, San Antonio, Oakland and Los Angeles follow, and then j-hope will bring the show to Asia.
j-hope, producer Johnny Goldstein and songwriters Sam Martin, Sean Douglas and Theron Makiel Thomas have credits on the track.
Among the new music trailing behind “Sweet Dreams” on the poll this week are two albums that have been highly anticipated: JENNIE’s Ruby, with 12% of the vote, and Lady Gaga’s Mayhem, with 7% of the vote.
See the final results of this week’s poll below.

Celebrate J-Hope’s ‘Sweet Dreams’ With an Exclusive Photo from Set
What better way to usher in Friday than with a brand new j-hope song? Well, with a brand new j-hope song and an exclusive photo from the music video set.
To celebrate the release of j-hope’s new solo single “Sweet Dreams,” a collaboration with Grammy-winning R&B artist Miguel, Teen Vogue has gotten a peek behind-the-scenes with an exclusive pic from the music video set, which sees the star perched upon a pile of clothes while holding on to his closet door. (All while wearing a pair of footprint low boots from Louis Vuitton, as a loyal brand ambassador.)
The release of “Sweet Dreams (feat. Miguel)” marks the start of a new chapter for the BTS member. Not only is it his first release since the release of Hope on the Street Vol. 1 in March of last year, it’s also his first release since being discharged from the military on October 17, 2024.

The single arrives at a premium time for j-hope, as he just started his first-ever solo world tour, Hope on the Stage. With a total of 31 shows across 15 cities, the tour started in Seoul with three shows at the KSPO DOME that were also livestreamed to viewers worldwide via Weverse, and he will now embark on a journey across North America and Asia.
