Ariana Grande’s “Side To Side (featuring Nicki Minaj)” will spend a second week atop the Mediabase pop radio airplay chart.
The hit single received 10,350 spins during the first four days of the December 11-17 tracking week. Up 4.3% from the count at this point last week, the tally positions “Side To Side” at #1 on the building chart.
Maroon 5’s “Don’t Wanna Know (featuring Kendrick Lamar),” the #2 song on the building chart, trails by 1,648 spins. It is accelerating more quickly than “Side To Side (up 10.7% vs. last week), but it has absolutely no chance of closing that gap by the close of tracking.
“Side To Side” will follow “Problem” in becoming Ariana Grande’s second two-week #1.
“Bang Bang,” Grande’s other #1, spent one week atop the chart in late 2014.
