A RECAP OF RADIO ADD RECAPS

At T40, Columbia has delivered 30 stations on the viral sensation that is Lil Nas X's "Old Town Road," for #1 Most Added this week. Capitol pulls in another 23 adds on Mabel's "Don't Call Me Up" (Polydor), while Republic scores 22 more adds on Marshmello's "Here With Me" f/Chvrches(Joytme/Glassnote) and In2une puts up another 20 adds on Lauv & Troye Sivan's "im so tired" (Capitol-AWAL).

Meanwhile at Rhythm, Epic takes this week’s Most Added position with Travis Scott's “Wake Up” f/ The Weeknd (Republic), getting 39 stations out of the box. Iggy Azalea's “Sally Walker” (New Classic-EMPIRE) was second with 30 commitments, while Columbia is buzzing with Lil Nas X's “Old Town Road," grabbing 19 stations.

Interesting to observe that "Old Town Road" — a quirky rap song— got a wider embrace at Pop Radio than what would traditionally be its core format, Rhythm. There are no more set genre rules, people.
