Columbia’s Gray, Burruss, Bedard, Stevens & Brenner have launched one of those big summer tracks, clearing the panel with all 180 reporting stations jumping on board BTS’ “Butter.” It’s already Top 15 and climbing fast as the first track from an international group to close out the U.S. Top 40 panel on release week. The Kid LAROI’s “WITHOUT YOU” f/Miley Cyrus is eyeing the top of the chart as it locks in Power rotation everywhere. This one is currently Top 3.

It’s the perfect sticky mass appeal collab rolling into summer,” said Alex Tear, VP of Pop Music & Programming, SXM+P. Glass Animals’ “Heat Waves” is moving Top 10 at Pop after a three-week #1 run at Alternative. Ariana Grande’s “pov” is now Top 5 with 300m+ streams.
