At Top 40, Republic’s Spangler and squad have the big story this week with Post Malone’s "Chemical" (Mercury), which is on track for a 5,000+ spin week. It's by far the greatest gainer of the week and already bound for the Top 15. Interscope's Romano & Lopes crew have Rema & Selena Gomez's "Calm Down" moving into the Top 3 with eyes on the #1 spot for next week, while RCA's Team Rothschild has Miguel's "Sure Thing" (By Storm) heading for the Top 5. Joining the Top 20 this week will be Marella's Capitol bunch with Toosii's "Favorite Song" (SCMG) and Republic’s Jonas Brothers with "Waffle House.” Virgin's Halpern and staff take a big jump with NF's "HAPPY" (NF Real Music) as it moves into the Top 25 one week after impact. Also debuting will be Miley Cyrus' "Jaded" (RCA) and Lewis Capaldi's "Wish You the Best" (Capitol).
At Rhythm, meanwhile, RCA’s Lori G and Inca move SZA’s “Kill Bill” (TDE) back to the #1 spot this week. Nino and Interscope have Rema & Selena Gomez’s “Calm Down” climbing to #3. Dixie and Capitol are on pace for a great week with Toosii’s “Favorite Song” (SCMG) and Ice Spice’s “In Ha Mood” (10K Projects), both entering the Top 10. Davey and Republic see Drake’s “Search & Rescue” (OVO) join the Top 15 after two weeks as Big Boss Vette’s “Pretty Girls Walk” makes its way into the Top 20. Sack and Dontay at Epic have BIA’s “I’M THAT BITCH” on track for the Top 20 as well. Look for Columbia’s Strazza to debut Tyler, The Creator’s “DOGTOOTH” in the Top 30 this week.
And at Modern Rock, it’s a super-tight battle, but it looks like Fall Out Boy’s “Love From the Other Side” (Fueled by Ramen/Crush Music) will reclaim the top spot from Linkin Park’s “Lost” (Warner). RCA’s Gary Gorman sees a monster debut around #12 for Foo Fighters’ “Rescued” with at least 1,200 spins since its launch Wednesday. Glassnote’s Michael Starr arrives in the Top 20 with GROUPLOVE’s “Hello,” and Hozier’s “Eat Your Young,” guided by Columbia’s Lisa Sonkin, hits the Top 25. Making its chart debut this week will be C3’s Michigander with “Superglue.”
