Mediabase’s updated weekly airplay report is now available, and it confirms Charli XCX’s “Boom Clap” is one of the Top 25 songs on pop radio.

The revised version of the chart, which purges some aging, declining songs from the calculation, lists the singer-songwriter’s breakthrough solo effort as the format’s 25th-most-played song for the week ending June 28.

The song garnered 2,675 weekly spins on the pop format, which represents a week-to-week gain of 1,362. Only MAGIC!’s #5 “Rude” (+1,917), Maroon 5’s #15 “Maps” (+1,869), Nico and Vinz’ #3 “Am I Wrong” (1,833), Ariana Grande’s #1 “Problem (featuring Iggy Azalea)” (+1,370) and Sam Smith’s #8 “Stay With Me” (+1,364) enjoyed larger gains over the measured period.

Charli XCX’s “Boom Clap,” which has ranked as the format’s second-most-added song for two consecutive weeks, scored 15.96 million impressions for the week ending June 28.

Other noteworthy weekly movers:

— Maroon 5’s “Maps” rises to #15.
