Bruno Mars Inches Closer To Tying A Historic Radio Record

"Risk It All" returns to its No. 3 peak on Billboard's Radio Songs chart, nearly scoring Bruno Mars a historic new No. 1 on the biggest airplay tally.

Bruno Mars Inches Closer To Tying A Historic Radio Record

Bruno Mars is inching closer to breaking a historic radio record as his song "Risk It All" climbs back to the No. 3 peak on the Radio Songs chart. This could mark Mars's twelfth number one hit, tying him with Mariah Carey and bringing him within one No. 1 of Rihanna's record. "Risk It All" shares the No. 3 spot with Mars's previous hit "24K Magic," making it one of only two Mars songs to reach this position.

Currently, Mars holds two spots within the top five, alongside "I Just Might," which has dropped from No. 2 to No. 4. In just over 15 years, Mars has become one of the most successful artists of all time on Billboard's Radio Songs chart, boasting an impressive collection of number one hits. Should "Risk It All" manage to secure the No. 1 spot, Mars will break his tie with Carey and come tantalizingly close to Rihanna's all-time record.
