Just before her self-titled album hit the market, Ella Mai released a collaboration with Chris Brown.
Entitled “Whatchamacallit,” the song earns a spot on the Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100.
“Whatchamacallit,” which credits Mai as the lead artist and Brown as the featured act, starts at #19 on the listing. The Bubbling Under chart ranks the Top 25 songs that have yet to appear on the actual Hot 100.
It relies on the same sales-streaming-radio methodology. In this case, the song generated most of its points on the streaming and sales fronts.
