Monday Evening Mediabase Report: Four notable milestones reached this week, highlighted across Pop, Country, HAC, and AC playlists.
Jax, who placed third on Season 14 of American Idol, continues to build momentum since her television debut. She has grown a strong social media following and is now seeing her follow-up single “Cinderella Snapped” break into the Top 40 on HAC, while already holding a Top 40 spot on the Pop chart. This marks an important step in her transition from reality-TV exposure to mainstream radio airplay.
Country radio recorded two milestones this week. Scotty McCreery, the Season 10 American Idol winner, is promoting his latest single from the album Same Truck. His new single “It Matters to Her” climbed into the Top 15 on Country radio, following a stretch in which two previous singles from the same album reached number one.
Morgan Wallen—identified this week as one of The Voice’s most successful alumni—also reached a Country milestone. His single “One Thing at a Time” moved into the Top 20 on Country radio. The song comes from Morgan’s new album of the same name, which has claimed the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 for a second consecutive week. The album earned 259,000 equivalent album units in its second week, a 48% decline from the opening week total of 501,000. Those figures were driven by 308.06 million streams—equating to 234,000 SEA units, down 39%—along with 21,000 in traditional sales (down 81%) and 4,000 TEA units (down 53%). His prior release, Dangerous: The Double Album, remains in the Billboard 200 top 10 at No. 7, posting 39,000 equivalent album units (down 6%). Morgan also logged a crossover milestone with “Last Night” moving into the Top 30 on Pop radio.
Pop and AC radio showed additional movements: Fifth Harmony’s hit “Worth It” returned to the AC chart, demonstrating the song’s enduring airplay appeal years after its initial release.
