Jack Blacks Minecraft Chicken-låt nådde just Billboardlistorna. Den är 34 sekunder lång.

Jack Black’s Minecraft Chicken Song Just Hit the Billboard Charts. It's 34 Seconds Long.

Minecraft just keeps winning. Between the box office numbers, internet memes, and now a Billboard milestone, A Minecraft Movie is quickly becoming the most chaotic and successful video game adaptation in years. And now, somehow, Jack Black’s 34-second song about lava chicken has officially entered the U.S. Billboard Hot 100.

Yes. That sentence is real.

“Steve’s Lava Chicken,” performed by Black and written alongside director Jared Hess, debuted at No. 78 on the Billboard Hot 100 dated May 3, 2025. That officially makes it the shortest song in history to ever chart.

“La-la-la-lava ch-ch-ch-chicken”

That’s it. That’s the hook. And it absolutely rules.

This little audio gem also landed at No. 10 on the Hot Rock Songs Chart, which, honestly, feels even more hilarious. It’s a comedy jingle, a meme track, a viral moment, and somehow also a rock song? Billboard works in mysterious ways.

But wait—it gets better. “Steve’s Lava Chicken” also hit No. 21 on the UK’s official chart earlier this month. That means this thing is going international. Lava Chicken World Tour, when?

The Minecraft Movie isn’t just a meme—it’s massive

This goofy song is just the latest victory lap in what’s already shaping up to be a legendary first few weeks for A Minecraft Movie. After premiering earlier this month, the film has dominated global box offices, smashing projections and quickly climbing the ranks toward becoming the highest-grossing video game movie of all time.

A big part of that success? The perfectly chaotic tone. Jared Hess (best known for Napoleon Dynamite) brings that off-kilter energy, and Jack Black is basically unleashed in every scene he’s in. The song was reportedly written late during filming, after Black improvised it on set and the crew couldn’t stop laughing.

So yeah—this wasn’t some overproduced studio plant. “Steve’s Lava Chicken” is the result of genuine creative chaos. And now it’s living on everyone’s For You pages and streaming playlists.

Block Party screenings are about to take this even further

Theaters have already seen wild crowds for A Minecraft Movie, but now Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures are officially encouraging the madness.

“Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures invite fans back to the theater to experience A Minecraft Movie together in a whole new way! You know the moments. You know the lines. You love the songs,”

“Now it's time to get loose, laugh out loud and belt out those lyrics like a true diamond-tier fan.”

That’s from the announcement of the Block Party Edition screenings, launching May 2 across the U.S. and select international locations. Think of it like Rocky Horror Picture Show for the Roblox generation: singing, yelling, and lava chicken memes are fully encouraged.

In other words, Jack Black’s 34-second track is about to become the new anthem of Minecraft fandom. Expect chants. Expect cosplay. Expect chaos.

Jack Black: Certified Video Game Soundtrack Legend

This isn’t even Jack Black’s first time hitting the charts for a video game movie. Back in 2023, his now-iconic “Peaches” ballad from The Super Mario Bros. Movie reached No. 58 on the Hot 100 and completely took over the internet for weeks.

Now, two years later, he’s back with something even dumber and somehow even more perfect.

Between these songs, his love of gaming, and his YouTube channel (Jablinski Games still rules), Jack Black has kind of become the unofficial voice of Hollywood’s video game era. If a movie adaptation drops and doesn’t include a weird Jack Black vocal track, is it even trying?

Lava Chicken is eternal

This entire moment feels like a fever dream—but it’s real. Jack Black recorded a song about a Minecraft chicken in lava, and it charted on Billboard. That’s the world we live in now.

More than anything, it shows how absurdly massive Minecraft’s cultural footprint still is. The movie could’ve been a flop, but instead it’s raking in cash, breaking records, and producing viral music moments. That’s not just nostalgia—that’s power.

So, whether you love it or cringe every time the “la-la-la-lava” line loops in your brain, you kind of have to respect it. The Lava Chicken has spoken.

And it clucked its way to Billboard.
