A PREVIEW OF RADIO CHART PREVIEWS
At Top 40, Columbia’s Team Peter Gray enjoys another week atop the chart as Miley Cyrus' "Flowers" moves back to #1. Interscope's Romano & Lopes have Rema & Selena Gomez's "Calm Down" (Mavin/Virgin) picking up spins and poised to be the next #1. RCA's Rothschild and staff have Miguel's "Sure Thing" (By Storm) gaining spins as it joins the Top 5, while Republic's Spangler squad has Post Malone’s "Chemical" (Mercury) set to enter the Top 10. RCA also has Kane Brown & Katelyn Brown’s "Thank God" perched in the Top 15 as Republic's Jonas Brothers move Top 20 with "Waffle House.” Epic's Sackheim crew has Meghan Trainor's "Mother" joining the Top 20 and Virgin's Team Halpern moves NF's "HAPPY" (NF Real Music) Top 25. Debuting on the chart this week will be Republic's The Weeknd with "Double Fantasy" f/Future (XO/Epic), which looks to be the Greatest Gainer as it moves all the way up inside the Top 25, Taylor Swift's "Karma" and Kim Petras' "Alone" f/Nicki Minaj.
Meanwhile, at Rhythm, Nino and Interscope are doing everything they can to take the #1 spot this week with Rema & Selena Gomez’s “Calm Down,” which is in a dog fight with Pink Pantheress. Dixie and Capitol have two records growing nicely inside the Top 10 with Toosii’s “Favorite Song” (SCMG) and Ice Spice’s “In Ha Mood” (10K Projects). Davey and Republic have Drake’s “Search & Rescue” (OVO) climbing into the Top 10, as well as The Weeknd’s “Double Fantasy” f/Future (XO/Epic) ready to debut inside the Top 25 with an increase of over 1100 spins. RCA’s Lori and Inca move SZA’s “Snooze” (TDE) Top 30 this week. Look for chart debuts this week from Republic’s Post Malone with “Chemical” (Mercury), Capitol’s Ice Spice & Nicki Minaj with “Princess Diana” and RCA’s Libianca with “People.”
And at Modern Rock, there’s a three-way battle for the #1 spot next week between Linkin Park’s “Lost” (Warner), Gorillaz’s “New Gold” f/Tame Impala (Warner) and Fall Out Boy’s “Love From the Other Side” (Elektra) that’s too close to call. RCA’s Gary Gorman rockets to #5 with Foo Fighters’ “Rescued,” which is up over 800x. Crush’s Garrett Capone and Warner’s Rob Goldklang hit the Top 15 with Giovannie & the Hired Guns’ “Overrated,” while Hollywood’s Buddy Deal sees Little Image’s “Out of My Mind” arrive in the Top 20. Republic’s Amanda Dobbins and Drew Hauser get a nice chart debut with Post Malone’s “Chemical” (Mercury), as does Glassnote’s Michael Starr with Phoenix’s “After Midnight” f/Clairo.
