As Rihanna’s “Sledgehammer” takes flight at the adult contemporary and hot adult contemporary formats, it moves closer to debuting on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
The song improves to #2 on this week’s edition of the Bubbling Under Hot 100, which ranks the top songs that have yet to appear on the actual Hot 100.
“Sledgehammer” debuted at #19 on last week’s edition of the Bubbling Under chart.
“Sledgehammer,” which appears on the “Star Trek: Beyond” soundtrack, is being promoted at the aforementioned adult radio formats. It was also serviced to pop, but Rihanna’s “ANTI” single “Needed Me” is receiving the promotional focus at that format.
