Morgan Wallen’s smash “Last Night” is pacing to enter the Top 5 on this week’s Mediabase pop radio chart.

“Last Night” received 1,782 spins during the first two days of the July 2-8 tracking period. Up 12% from the count at this point last week, the tally slots “Last Night” at #5 on Mediabase’s building/real-time chart.

Since it does not face any obvious, imminent threat from below, “Last Night” should be able to retain its Top 5 position through the close of tracking.

“Last Night,” which recently enjoyed a multi-week reign atop the country radio chart, is also nearing the Top 5 at hot adult contemporary radio. It currently appears at #6 on the building Mediabase chart for that format.
