RCA’s Lori G and Inca are at it again, this time taking Doja Cat’s "Paint the Town Red" (Kemosabe) to #1. Michael Williams and the gamma. team end the week with Usher’s "Good Good" (mega) at #3. Sack and Epic ride Travis Scott’s "MELTDOWN" (Cactus Jack) into the Top 10. B Dot Scales and Warner welcome Saweetie’s "BIRTHDAY" w/YG & Tyga to the Top 15.

Look for Nino and Interscope to debut Jay Rock’s "Too Fast (Pull Over)" w/Anderson .Paak & Latto this week.

In what was a very slow impact week, Davey Dee and Republic switch gears with singles from Lil Tecca and go with "500lbs,” which scores eight adds. Epic’s Sack and Dontay also land eight new stations on Travis Scott’s "I KNOW?” while RCA’s Lori and Inca pick up seven early believers on Victoria Monét’s "On My Mama.” Michael Williams and Team gamma. pull in another seven adds on Sexyy Red’s "SkeeYee" (Open Shift), and Warner’s B Dot Scales secures four new commitments each on Teejay x DJ MAC’s "Drift" and NLE Choppa’s "It's Getting Hot.”

The highly anticipated Drake track, “Slime You Out” f/SZA (OVO/Republic), dropped on Friday and it was met with mixed reviews from Rhythm radio. As I write this on Monday (9/18), Davey Dee and Republic are not sure if this will be an official single yet. It’s long, has a bit of a slow tempo and clocks in at more than five minutes. However, it’s also #1 on every DSP I looked at, as well as Top 5 Shazam U.S. Considering the track features two of the most-talked about artists at our format, the question is, will it be a “hit” or is it just a “set up” track for his album arriving early October? One thing is for sure, everyone has an opinion about it. What does it say about the Rhythm format to not support a song from two of the biggest multiformat artists? I guess this will be the litmus test for whether radio and records can hold each other’s hands, provided Republic decides to work the record. Stay tuned! Davey also has Nicki Minaj’s “Last Time I Saw You,” which debuts at #31 this week. He also debuts Big Boss Vette’s “Get It" at #39, thanks to an increase of more than 150 spins. Lil Tecca’s “HVN on Earth” is still developing and looks to be a few weeks from a debut. The track is currently at #49 and climbing. Meanwhile, it’s shaping up to be a two-horse race for #1 next week as Gunna’s “fukumean” (Young Stoner Life/300) and Doja Cat’s “Paint the Town Red” (Kemosabe/RCA) duke it out for the top spot. RCA’s Lori G and Inca are red hot with Doja, who is up more than 670 spins this week. The track is a sure fire #1, whether that happens this coming week or next. It’s also currently #1 on Shazam U.S. and Spotify Top Songs Global. Michael Williams and team gamma. continue to hammer the throttle on Usher x Summer Walker x 21 Savage’s “Good Good” (mega). The single is currently up a whopping 760 spins and ends the week at #11. It’s already at #8 on the building chart. Williams also welcomes Sexyy Red’s “SkeeYee” (Open Shift) to the Top 30. She continues to pull in new believers each week. Noah Sheer and Def Jam have DJ Khaled’s “SUPPOSED TO BE LOVED” f/Lil Baby, Future & Lil Uzi Vert (We the Best) at #13.
