Alessia Cara Had Three Pop Radio Number Ones In 2017; Camila Cabello Had Two

Cara and Cabello reached #1 with multiple songs this year.

When 2017 began, Alessia Cara had one pop radio number one to her credit: “Here.”

By the end of the year, she had amassed three more chart-toppers.

Cara reached the top of the Mediabase pop radio chart with her own “Scars To Your Beautiful,” as part of the Zedd collaboration “Stay,” and as a featured artist on Logic’s “1-800-273-8255.” Khalid also appears on the Logic song.

“1-800-273-8255” ruled for one week, while “Scars” and “Stay” respectively spent two weeks and six weeks at #1.

Cara was one of only two artists to reach #1 with multiple songs in 2017.

Camila Cabello was the other. The artist reached #1 early in the year with her Machine Gun Kelly collaboration “Bad Things.” The song ultimately ruled for two weeks.

She closes this year with a second #1 in “Havana (featuring Young Thug).” That song is celebrating a sixth week atop the pop chart.
