Perceived competition between the two acts will often put their respective fanbases at odds.
This week, however, those fanbases can join in celebration of a new accomplishment on the pop radio airplay chart.
Selena Gomez’ “Good For You (featuring A$AP Rocky)” and Demi Lovato’s “Cool for the Summer” both enter the Top 15 on this week’s edition of the Mediabase chart.
Up three places, “Good For You” reaches #13 on the strength of its ~7,858 tracking week spins (+1,264). The song is Gomez’ fourth straight release (as a lead artist) to reach the chart’s Top 15. She also entered that portion of the chart as a featured artist on Zedd’s 2015 single “I Want You to Know.”
Thanks to the pop format’s second-greatest weekly airplay gain, Lovato’s “Cool for the Summer” also enters the Top 15 this week. Spun ~7,553 times during the July 12-18 tracking week (+2,157), “Cool” rises six places to a new peak of #14. It is Lovato’s third straight song to enter the pop format’s Top 15.
