The Chainsmokers are back at Top40 after a little break and are starting right where they left us and that\u2019s with another big radio hit. \u201cHigh\u201d (Disruptor\/Columbia) is the single that is setting the format on fire and it\u2019s one of their best to date. Radio is lucky to have them back where they belong. Imagine Dragons have a strong new entry at the format & make no mistake about that. The single \u201cEnemy\u201d (KidinaKorner\/Interscope) taken from the League Of Legends proves to us once again why they are one of the best bands out in radio these days. With a project this big you can only imagine how high this one will go.<\/p>\n
Tiesto has joined forces with Ava Max to bring us a real gem during this first quarter. \u201cThe Motto\u201d (Atlantic) is the jam that I\u2019m talking about and it\u2019s getting a big response from our panel of music and program directors. This one you need to pay very special attention to. Altego is taking Britney Spears & Ginuwine out for a spin. It\u2019s a take on \u201cToxic\u201d (RCA) and it\u2019s turned out to be a nice pairing. We\u2019ll see how it all works out in the coming weeks but so far so very good for this re-boot of sorts.<\/p>\n Iann Dior is making some pretty big moves and the Top40 format. \u201cLet You\u201d (Capitol) is the single that is really pulling in some rather impressive numbers. I think you might find this one to your immediate liking. Daisy The Great & AJR are quiet the combination. The single \u201cRecord Player\u201d (S-Curve\/Hollywood) captures the very best sounds around and what a solid track this is indeed. Radio is also loving and spinning the new Anitta by leaps and bounds. \u201cBoys Don\u2019t Cry\u201d (Warner) is the single that is making pure magic from coast to coast. It\u2019s also pulling in a huge response out there at radio and that\u2019s a solid sign.<\/p>\n Latto is about as big as they come these days at Top40. \u201cBig Energy\u201d (RCA) is just that and what a powerful track for our first quarter at radio. Give this a few spins and you will know exactly what the buzz is all about. Emmy Meli is making a name at the format and it\u2019s been quite remarkable to see. \u201cI Am Woman\u201d (Disruptor\/Arista) is a solid production from start to finish and there is no wonder as to why the chart numbers for this song are so high. Adele is back with the follow-up to her monster \u201cEasy On Me\u201d. \u201cOh My God\u201d (Columbia) is not as strong as the first single but is doing well in regards to the shoes it has to fill. We just hope that she can get back to the live performances.<\/p>\n Newcomer Gayle is as hot as they come. This Nashville pop artist is taking the music world by storm as her \u201cabcdefu\u201d (Atlantic) moves past the pack. There is no doubt that she is off to a great start of what appears to be a huge recording career. Let\u2019s see how she continues to evolve and hope that she is not just a one hit wonder. The Swedish House Mafia & The Weeknd keep moving up to higher ground and that should be of no surprise. \u201cMoth To A Flame\u201d (Republic) is the jam that has been receiving top spin action and music critic praise. It\u2019s a solid mix from quite the paring that just screams hit.<\/p>\n That Bruno Mars pairing that finds him with A. Paak & Silk Sonic has turned out to become something magical. \u201cSmokin\u2019 Out The Window\u201d (Aftermath\/Atlantic) is a bit of a throwback but has such charm that you can\u2019t put it down. The pairing of Acraze & Cherish has turned out to be a thing of magic and beauty. \u201cDo It To It\u201d (Virgin) is the single that spares to expense with a trilling and powerful production. Give it a real shot and see.<\/p>\n Jamie Alimorad appears to be well on the way to another strong single. The track \u201cGive A Little Lovin\u2019\u201d (Knothole) is breaking fast and furious from Top40 to Hot AC and there is no surprise as it\u2019s one of the strongest indie singles out there. Beta Youth is also pulling in some rather powerful numbers. \u201cOne Of A Kind\u201d (Beta Youth) is the single that is making them bigger than life. It came out of the box swinging and has not disappointed one bit. It might be time to make Beta Youth part of the program.<\/p>\n A big congrats to all of our New Music Award nominees! Now it\u2019s time to pick up the votes and move them from nominees to winners. Best of luck to all of them.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n\n The Chainsmokers are back at Top40 after a little break and are starting right where they left us and that\u2019s with another big radio hit. \u201cHigh\u201d (Disruptor\/Columbia) is the single that is setting the format on fire and it\u2019s one of their best to date.
