It was up 400 spins and the only thing that can hold it out of a #1 spot is label mate DaBaby, whose “Rockstar” climbs to #4 and is up 885 spins! On the building chart, he moves to #3 and it’s going to be a sprint to the finish. Nino also has Moneybagg Yo’s “1,2,3” at #30, as well as Juice WRLD’s “Tell Me U Luv Me” f/Trippie Redd at #45.
