It's coming for 100M on pop, isn't? 

That's actually hard to reach, but it's going to be a Pop radio smash, so who knows.

Falling is predicted to place at #38 on next week's hot100 while being #1 on pop radio (due to JW's album bomb obviously...) but still......

Falling #1  if Harry has a rolling effect from these 500+ updates next week Dua just might still have a chance at #1 the week after but I’m not sure.

100M on overall sure, but on pop alone 

WS getting those huge ass updates, pop radio is really loving it

The way radio hates Lady Gaga

I have a question??

 

is it possible that Harry could keep increasing +400-500 daily spins next week?? or it will be hard do to the rolling effect? Im sure he could still do +150-200

As long as he's far enough from the peak/maximum for it to happen, it can happen. 

 

His fast increase is an anomaly in the current pop radio climate anyway, especially knowing it still hasn't debuted on callouts, so no one knows!

Falling only reaching #1 now when it has been a streaming smash since last year  Goes to show how terribly slow US radio is... 

 

If it peaked on radio earlier it could've been a cute H100 top 10 hit.

those spins are "organic", it's not a radio deal! so unless it suddenly decreases (which is unlikely since -again- WS doesn't have a deal), it's not gonna have a rolling effect, rolling effects happen due to the sudden gap between release week/day where a certain single gets a big push to get as much exposure because it's new and then when the week ends it joins the rest of the lineup and gets regular spins like the other songs, so that everyone gets a chance and this creates a the big gap and decrease compared to the first week, which we call the rolling effect.

The fact Harry could be #1 in like 5 days...

And why is BL not dropping faster

It won't, it's still super high on callouts, and new hits are just below of it, even after months of being overplayed.  Same thing happening with AY.

The same way it’s apparently not killing Harry despite having two songs on HEAVY rotation. Some big radios have both on power. It’s his voice several times an hour every single day. I don’t know how this is possible but it’s happened before, recently with the Jonas Brothers and Ariana. I think people that listen to the radio are just used to it at this point.

I actually have the same question that’s in the spoiler because the daily increases are scaring me at this point. How is this possible without a deal? Is it gonna create a rolling effect?

Wow @ Be Kind bombing like that. It sounds like the perfect airplay hit, here in my country it's rightfully a radio smash

I guess radio is dropping old songs like Say So and JB and playing new hits. The biggest new pop song at the moment is Watermelon Sugar. It is doing great on every platform. I'm happy that radio is not blind. Probably that's the reason of huge updates. And each station has its own callouts, so... i guess it is doing well there.

Harry will not block Dua, tho. We will have 3 #1 on Pop in 3 weeks.

well the callouts show radio listeners just don't want any Gaga on radio..

Potential (07/17)

1 (NE) Watermelon Sugar 91

Most positive reaction: Adore You

Favorite song: Watermelon Sugar

 

This is crazy!  and they are both solo

The callouts explain a lot. Watermelon Sugar has a 5.5 point lead on the second most favourited song (excluding Adore You, which is the actual second)  locals are literally in love with it
