CROSSOVER
That sound you heard Saturday evening at 10PM was a collective sigh of relief as Ayelet, James White and Columbia officially make J Cole f/Miguel “Power Trip” #1. It’s perfect timing as they seed out the new J Cole track, “Crooked Smile,” which impacts 6/17. They currently have Daft Punk “Get Lucky” jumping 17-12 and up almost 400x this week on the chart. Columbia also impacts the new Calvin Harris f/Ellie Goulding “I Need Your Love” this week, and be on the lookout for a new Krewella coming in the next few weeks... Republic’s Gary Spangler, Alisa Applegate and Davey Dee have Ariana Grande “The Way” f/Mac Miller inside the top 10 and among the most increased again this week. They also have Lil Wayne f/2 Chainz “Rich As F**k” at #21, DJ Khaled f/Drake and Rick Ross “No New Friends” at #23 and a most increased record, and Rich Gang f/Bird Man and Lil Wayne “Tap Out” on the chart… Rick Sackheim and Noah Sheer over at IDJ are about to heat up. Currently they have Mariah Carey “#Beautiful” f/Miguel sitting pretty at #13, as well as Rihanna “Right Now” f/David Guetta skyrocketing up the chart at #39. Just as importantly, they have the Clinton Sparks “Gold Rush” f/2 Chainz, Macklemore and D.A. impacting next week, 2 Chainz f/Pharrell “Feds Watching,” which just landed on your desk today, and both Bridget Kelly “Street Dreaming” and Iggy Azalea “Work” impacting in the next few weeks… Franco at Capitol is still grinding out the Jennifer Lopez f/Pitbull “Live It Up,” which just misses charting this week. It continues to develop well on the Pop chart… Strazz, Beata and Inca at RCA are looking to be the next to reach the #1 summit with Justin Timberlake “Mirrors.” It’s sitting at #2 on the real-time chart, and #1 on the real-time BDS chart. They also have Chris Brown “Fine China” entrenched in the Top 5 and Miguel “How Many Drinks” at #31 (and getting new stations every week); meanwhile, they just impacted the Arriana “Sexy People (All Around The World)” f/Pitbull last week. They also have the Ke$ha “Crazy Kids” looking to get on the chart this coming week… Rachael Spangler and Dixie Tipton at Epic have done a tremendous job in developing the Ciara “Body Party” into a bigtime record. It’s sitting at #25 and id one of the week’s biggest growers. They’re also motoring up the chart with Sean Kingston “Beat It” f/Chris Brown inside the top 15 and getting more increases each week… If you’re not at least spiking the new Macklemore & Ryan Lewis “Same Love” track or have it as a night record, what are you waiting for? This act is coming off back-to-back #1 records, and this single is already on the chart and was up 425x this week. Lee and WB also have the Jason Derulo “The Other Side” looking to get inside the top 25, as well as the Major Lazer “Bubble Butt” f/2 Chainz, Bruno Mars and Tyga making a lot of noise at the mix show and night categories.
