Bruno Mars’ “24K Magic” is set to reach #1 on this week’s Mediabase rhythmic airplay chart.

It will concurrently enter the Top 5 at pop.

“24K Magic” received 4,718 spins during the first six days of the November 27-December 3 tracking week. Up 12.6% from the count at this point last week, the tally slots “24K Magic” at #1 on Mediabase’s building rhythmic chart.

“24K Magic” faces no imminent threat from below and should thus have no trouble locking up its #1 position.

Thanks to the 11,312 pop spins it received during the week’s first six days (+0.9%), the single meanwhile claims #5 on the building pop chart. It will retain that position through the close of tracking.

“24K Magic” is the title track and lead single from Mars’ recently released album.
