Play It On The Radio #21

How y’all doing? We’re ready with the first Play It On The Radio post of the decade. Past few weeks have been quite quiet but we finally see some action in the new year. Got loads of updates this time so sit back and ride.

Rhythmic:

• Jay-Z’s ‘Empire State Of Mind’ is still holding the crown this week at No.1.
• He’s followed by IYAZ’ ‘Replay’, Rihanna’s ‘Hard’ and David Guetta’s ‘Sexy Chick’.
• Young Money’s Bedrock’ lands up in the Top 10 at No.9 for the first time.
• Timbaland’s ‘Carry Out’ with Justin Timberlake makes a significant jump to No.24. Should have been the first single.
• New on the charts this week: BEP’s ‘Imma Be’ and Plies’ ‘Medicine’ at No.34 and 38 respectively.

• ‘Imma Be’ is also the most added song on Rhythmic.
• It’s followed by: Snoop Dogg’s ‘I Wanna Rock’, Timbaland’s ‘Carry Out’ and Trey Songz’ ‘Say Aah’ in that order.
• New adds this week: Rihanna – ‘Rude Boy’, Jay-Z – ‘Young Forever’, Alicia Keys – ‘Put It In A Love Song’, Jason DeRulo – ‘In My Head’.
• Other Info: 50 Cent’s ‘Do You Think About Me’ and Mariah’s ‘Angels Cry’ remix with Ne-Yo officially release on the radio on 19th January.

Urban:

• Trey Songz is No.1 with ‘I Invented Sex’ for a second week in a row. That’s his 4th straight hit off Ready.
• He’s trailed by Birdman’s ‘Money To Blow’, Melanie Fiona’s ‘It Kills Me’ and Young Money’s ‘Bedrock’.
• Robin Thicke’s ‘Sex Therapy’ enters the Top 15 at No.13.
• Usher’s ‘Hey Daddy’ jumps to No.23, Timbaland’s ‘Say Something’ with Drake to No.26 and Lil Wayne’s ‘On Fire’ to No.33.
• New on the charts: Jaheim’s ‘Ain’t Leaving Without U’ at No.38 and Roscoe Dash’s ‘All The Way Turnt Up’ at 39. Don’t like this track one bit.
• Snoop Dogg’s ‘I Wanna Rock’ is the most added song on Urban.
• They’re followed by Omarion’s ‘Speedin’, Usher’s ‘Hey Daddy’, Timbaland’s ‘Say Something’ and Wale’s ‘Pretty Girls’. The last one is surprising since the single was officially released at least 2 months back. It is surely picking steam now.
• New adds this week: Skillz – ‘Rap Up 2009’, Teairra Mari – ‘Sponsor’ with Gucci Mane & Soulja Boy, Jay-Z – ‘On To The Next One’, Party Boyz – ‘Flex’, Gucci Mane – ‘Bingo’ feat. Soulja Boy.
