In this week’s The Contenders, we switch over to the Hot 100, and look at Wallen’s quest for 19 weeks at No. 1 and all-time Billboard chart glory. If it continues to grow steadily there, while staying level on streaming, it may close the gap enough with “Last Night” in the next couple of weeks.

. If it continues to grow steadily there, while staying level on streaming, it may close the gap enough with “Last Night” in the next couple of weeks. already came close to unseating Wallen earlier this summer, when hersingle “Karma” shot to No. 2 , but could not quite depose “Last Night.
The story with “Cruel Summer” is similar to that of “Fast Car”: “Last Night” has a sizable edge on streaming , but is starting to fade on radio while “Summer” surges. And “Summer” is really starting to swelter on the airwaves: It became Swift’s12th No. 1 on Pop Airplay last week, and breaks the top five on Radio Songs this week in just its seventh frame on the chart. If its velocity keeps up, it may pass both Combs’ and Wallen’s hits in due time, and could be in the hunt for No. 1 shortly after.
An interesting wrinkle in this three-way race: None of these songs have proper music videos or remixes yet on streaming services. This is essentially par for the course for Wallen , and outside of a recently released live clip, Combs has taken a mostly hands-off approach to promoting his “Fast Car” cover, which he did not originally intend to be a single.
