After moving up to #2 last week, Benny Blanco, Halsey & Khalid’s “Eastside” rises to #1 on this week’s Mediabase pop radio airplay chart.
The song dethrones Halsey’s own “Without Me” to top this week’s listing.
“Eastside” received a format-leading ~18,490 spins during the February 17-23 tracking period. The count tops last week’s mark by 375 spins.
In a testament to its longevity, “Eastside” reaches #1 in its 31st week on the chart.
While Benny Blanco has written number one hits for other artists, “Eastside” marks his first pop radio #1 as a credited performer. The song meanwhile represents Halsey’s fourth chart-topper (after “Without Me,” “Him & I,” and “Closer”) and Khalid’s third (after “Love Lies” and “1-800-273-8255”).
“Without Me,” which received ~18,074 spins (-343), falls to #2 this week. It had spent the previous four weeks at #1.
Ariana Grande’s “thank u, next” holds at #3 with ~15,186 spins (-1,234), while a spin count of ~14,964 (-151) lifts Post Malone & Swae Lee’s “Sunflower” one spot to #4.
Down one place, Panic! At The Disco’s “High Hopes” takes #5 with ~14,744 spins (-918).
