Teddy Swims, born Jaten Collin Dimsdale, rose to fame after gaining millions of fans on YouTube for his powerful covers that showcased his rich, soulful vocals. Blending R&B, pop, and soul with hints of country, he built a reputation as one of today’s most emotionally expressive performers. His breakout original single, “Lose Control,” released in June 2023, captured that same authenticity — a heartfelt exploration of love, vulnerability, and the struggle to move on from a consuming relationship.

“Lose Control” became a slow-burning success that turned into a global hit. It debuted modestly at No. 99 on the Billboard Hot 100 in August 2023 but steadily climbed the charts for 32 weeks before reaching No. 1 in March 2024, where it held for a week. By May 2025, the song had spent an unprecedented 92 weeks on the Hot 100 — breaking the record for the longest-charting song in Billboard history — and also set the mark for the most weeks in the Top 10, with 63 weeks. It was later crowned Billboard’s No. 1 song of 2024, cementing Teddy Swims as one of the most impactful new voices in contemporary pop and soul music.
