Since introducing Eminem to the world in 1999 with “My Name Is,” the Grammy and Oscar-winning rapper has maintained a steady radio presence with hits like “Lose Yourself” in 2002 and powerful duets with Rihanna, “Love the Way You Lie” in 2010 and “The Monster” in 2013.
“Houdini,” the kickoff single from Eminem’s 12th studio album in the last 25 years, debuted at No. 11 on Integr8 USA’s Pop Callout Chart, which is based on the average reception scores of CHR and Hot AC listeners. The immediate positive response to “Houdini” made it Integr8 USA’s Pop “1 To Watch.” Weekly, exclusively Inside RadioIntegr8 USA will announce the top five songs in the pop, country and alternative categories, as well as the songs that were “songs to watch” in each category.
Returning to the top of the pop charts is Teddy Swims’ “Lose Control,” which has bounced back and forth between the top spot and Benson Boone for the past six weeks. Currently ranked at No. 3, Hozier’s “Too Sweet” continues to climb, earning No. 1 airplay on both CHR and Hot AC, according to Mediabase, which monitors music airplay from more than 1,800 media outlets in more than 160 markets.
Morgan Wallen has appeared twice in the Country Callout Top 5, including his latest collaboration with Post Malone, “I Had Some Help.” Also making the Top 5 is former 1 To Watch, Shaboozie’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” and this week’s 1 To Watch winner is Luke Bryan’s “Love You, Miss You, Mean It.”
In alternative, “Beautiful Things” remains the top-testing song for the sixth week in a row, while “Too Sweet” rises to runner-up. The notable song in alternative is Billie Eilish’s “Lunch,” which debuts at No. 20.
