Alex Warren has taken over TikTok and the rest of the world with his viral love song ‘Ordinary,’ and now it has topped Spotify’s global chart.
Warren co-founded the TikTok viral Hype House back in 2019, and gained a massive following through collaborative videos featuring the rest of the group.
He met his wife, Kouvr, through the group, and the duo has taken over the app together as Alex worked towards building his music career.
And, he’s done just that. After weeks of teasing it, Alex released his love song ‘Ordinary’ in early 2025 as an ode to his wife, and now it’s at the top of Spotify’s global charts.
Alex Warren tops Spotify’s Top 50 Global chart
On Friday, May 9, Spotify updated its Top 50 Global chart, and Alex Warren almost immediately jumped to the top of the list to score his first number-one hit.
With 5,653,838 streams on the app, Ordinary beats out massive songs like Birds of a Feather by Billie Eilish, Die With A Smile by Lady Gaga, and even other TikTok viral songs like Benson Boone’s Beautiful Things.
It’s not the only achievement Alex has reached since releasing Ordinary, either. Just weeks after it released, he appeared on Netflix’s Love is Blind reunion episode, leaving fans excited.
“Am I the only one who cried happy tears for the fact he’s finally getting the recognition he deserves,” one user commented.
Not long after that, Alex made his way over to The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon, and even joined country music stars Ed Sheeran and Jelly Roll during Coachella and Stagecoach in April.
While Alex’s music career may be the biggest of any former Hype House member, he’s not the only one who has gone on to create popular music. Back in 2024, Addison Rae released her song ‘Diet Pepsi’ and fans immediately flocked to social media to share their love for the music video.
