It’s now been four weeks with KSR/Atlantic’s Cardi B “Bodak Yellow” at the top, but Epic and Sujit Kundu are making a push to make Yo Gotti & Mike WiLL Made-It f/Nicki Minaj’s “Rake It Up” (CMG) #1 on next week’s chart. It’s over 1,200 spins away, but Cardi seems to be showing a lot of burn and “Rake It Up” still has a few stations moving to power. Gotti was up 350 spins this week. Epic also has Travis Scott’s “Butterfly Effect” (Grand Hustle) now in the Top 15, up 70 spins, as well as 21 Savage’s “Bank Account” (Slaughter Gang) right behind at #16. This one was up 95 spins.
