Bolstered by promotional support from iHeartMedia, high-profile exposure during the Apple Music presentation and considerable industry enthusiasm, The Weeknd’s new “Can’t Feel My Face” easily claims this week’s most added honor at pop radio.
According to Mediabase, the new release scored adds from 90 monitored pop stations this week. No other song earned even half as much new support this week.
Already pop radio’s 45th-most-played song, “Can’t Feel My Face” will leverage its early programmer support to continue soaring up the airplay chart.
Added by 41 stations this week, OMI’s “Cheerleader” ranks as pop radio’s second-most added song. The track is already a Top 20 hit on the pop airplay chart.
Tori Kelly’s “Should’ve Been Us,” which led last week’s pop add board, grabs third-most added this week. It won support from 37 new stations.
With respective add counts of 27 and 26, Major Lazer’s “Lean On (featuring DJ Snake & MØ)” and MKTO’s “Bad Girls” rank as fourth- and fifth-most added.
