THE LOGIC OF A POP #1

The phenomenon that is “1-800-273-8255” by Def Jam's Logic f/Alessia Cara and Khalid is now also the #1 song at Pop radio.

This story is a perfect victory lap ahead of the exits of the label's Steve Bartels and Rick Sackheim in mid-December.

The double platinum track, which has garnered 500m+ streams, remains Top 10 at Spotify U.S. and Top 15 on the Global chart and is hovering around the Top 25 at iTunes and Apple Music. Look for him to perform the song (the recent remix of which features Juanes) at the Latin Grammys on 11/16.

As soon as they finish celebrating the hotline hit's latest benchmark, Steve, Rick, Nicki Farag, Keith Rothschild and team plan to lose our number.
