The fourth single from Taylor Swift’s “1989” officially claims #1 on this week’s Mediabase pop radio airplay chart.<\/p>\n
Its five-week journey to the top was shorter than that of Swift’s three previous “1989” singles.<\/p>\n
“Bad Blood,” the aforementioned fourth single, soars three places to #1 on this week’s edition of the pop chart. It received ~18,004 spins (+2,019) during the June 14-20 tracking week.<\/p>\n
Officially represented at pop by a Kendrick Lamar rap remix, “Bad Blood” first launched at radio on May 18. The remix was not even officially confirmed, let alone released, until the night before.<\/p>\n
In reaching the top after just five weeks, “Bad Blood” climbed the chart more quickly than earlier “1989” single “Blank Space.” That song, which previously ranked as the album’s fastest-rising release, required seven weeks to top the Mediabase pop airplay chart.<\/p>\n
“Bad Blood” is the fourth straight #1 connected to Swift’s “1989.” In addition to “Blank Space,” previous singles “Shake it Off” and “Style” also reigned over the pop chart.<\/p>\n
— Also in pop’s Top 5 this week: Walk the Moon’s “Shut Up and Dance” (#2), Wiz Khalifa’s “See You Again (featuring Charlie Puth)” (#3), Jason Derulo’s “Want to Want Me” (#4), Tove Lo’s “Talking Body” (#5).<\/p>\n
— A multi-format offering, “Bad Blood” is currently #5 at Hot AC, #13 at Rhythmic and #20 at AC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[1047],"tags":[3347,176,700,145],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\n
