Olivia Rodrigo’s ‘Drop Dead’ Rises to No. 1 on Billboard’s Pop Airplay Chart

Billboard's Pop Airplay chart has named Olivia Rodrigo's "Drop Dead" as the No. 1 song for the week of August 29. This marks Rodrigo's third consecutive No. 1 on the chart, following "Drivers License" and "Good 4 U." Both of those songs were hits from her first album, Sour. "Drop Dead" comes from Rodrigo's third studio album, "you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love."

Despite the somber title, the song's upbeat and catchy sound has made it a hit on pop playlists. It is currently dethroning Tame Impala and JENNIE's "Dracula" after six weeks at No. 1. Alongside "Drop Dead," Rodrigo's second single from the new album, "Stupid Song," holds at No. 17 in the Pop Airplay rankings. She currently has eight top 10 songs on the Pop Airplay chart, dating back to her debut single "Drivers License."

"The Cure" from the same album is also gaining popularity on the chart. Pop Airplay measures the most played songs on nearly 150 mainstream U.S. top 40 radio stations. "Drop Dead" is Rodrigo's fourth No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, which combines airplay data for all genres. She has set a record as the first artist to have their lead singles from their first two albums debut atop both the Hot 100 and the Pop Airplay chart.
