B Dot Scales and Warner ring the bell with Saweetie’s “NANi” this week as she hits the #1 spot after 15 weeks on the chart. She had a 390-spin increase that separated her from the pack.

James White and Columbia are next in line to go #1. Central Cee’s “BAND4BAND” f/Lil Baby is sitting at #2 on the building chart with plenty of momentum and should end the week atop the chart. James also has The Kid LAROI’s “GIRLS” entering the Top 20 thanks to a triple-digit increase. Meanwhile, ian’s “Magic Johnson” is Top 30 and still developing.

Davey Dee and Republic are pushing for Ariana Grande’s “the boy is mine” to hit the Top 5 this week. The track, which has 30m+ music video views, is currently sitting at #6 on the building chart with room to grow. Republic also launched The Weeknd’s “Dancing in the Flames,” which impacted immediately. The new single is the first offering from his next album, Hurry Up Tomorrow, the conclusion of his trilogy of studio albums, following 2022′s Dawn FM and 2020′s After Hours.

Sackheim and Dontay at Epic have 21 Savage x Summer Walker’s “prove it" holding at #9 this week. The track is up 240 spins and has plenty of life as it is starting to research. Real Boston Richey’s “Help Me” (Freebandz) remains at #32 this week but enjoys an increase of 265 spins and continues to bring on new believers each week.

Angelo Scrobe and the PULSE/Concord team continue to drive Tommy Richman’s “DEVIL IS A LIE,” which ends the week at #13 and secures an increase of 125 spins. Jeremih’s “Wait on It” comes in at #19 and is still growing.

Dixie Tipton and ICLG are gearing up for another #5 push with GloRilla. This time it’s with “TGIF” (CMG/Interscope), which is at #14 and up a whopping 400 spins. The track is still three or so weeks away, but it certainly has the buzz and momentum. Moneybagg Yo’s “WHISKEY WHISKEY” f/Morgan Wallen (CMG/N-Less/Interscope) races into the Top 20 this week and is picking up steam as it picks up 280 spins this week and has a number of new increases. Shenseea & Wizkid’s “Work Me Out” (Rich Immigrants/Interscope) is still very new and at #35 on the chart. Meanwhile, Dixie debuts Hanumankind & Kalmi’s “Big Dawgs” (Capitol/ Def Jam India). There’s a solid buzz on this record, which gains 275 spins this week and is just getting started. It’s also currently Top 3 on the Shazam Global Top 200 chart and Top 10 U.S.

Lori G and RCA see A$AP Rocky’s “HIGHJACK” enter the Top 15 thanks to another impressive increase of more than 260 spins. Victoria Monét’s “Alright” (Lovett Music) ends the week at #22, while Latto’s “Brokey” (Streamcut) has a tremendous week and sees an increase of over 515 spins; look for this one to enter the Top 20 in the next few weeks.
