"Drunk in Love" & "XO" Charts Update
Although leading "Beyonce" track "Drunk in Love," featuring Jay-Z, falls 12-17 in its second week on the Hot 100, it continues its assault on R&B/hip-hop radio. The song lifts 9-8 in its third week on the R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart with a 23% gain to 19 million format audience impressions, according to Nielsen BDS. The track has claimed the chart's Greatest Gainer award in all three of its weeks on R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay.
On the all-genre Hot 100 Airplay chart, "Drunk" debuts at No. 45 with 28 million in all-format audience (up 18%). Still, radio accounts for just 14% of the song's total Hot 100 chart points. Sales comprise 47% of its total and streaming, 39%. "Drunk" more than doubles to 122,000 downloads sold (up 102%, according to Nielsen SoundScan), although it's pushed back 21-25 on Hot Digital Songs, and holds at No. 3 on Streaming Songs (5 million U.S. streams, down 20%, according to BDS).
Meanwhile, more pop-leaning "Beyonce" track "XO" debuts on Mainstream Top 40 at No. 32 (up 94% in plays). It's her first appearance on the chart since "Countdown" dented the list for a No. 38 peak in November 2011 and highest rank on the tally since "Best I Ever Had" reached No. 15 earlier that year.
