Tommy Richman deposits his first No. 1 on Billboard’s Pop Airplay chart as “Million Dollar Baby” rises a spot to the top the ranking dated Aug. 31.

The song also marks the first leader at the format for the ISO Supremacy, PULSE Records and Concord labels.

The coronation marks the latest for Richman’s breakthrough hit, which ruled the TikTok Billboard Top 50 chart for 10 weeks in May-July, the most for any title since the survey began last September.

The track has also led the Hot R&B Songs chart — for 16 weeks and counting — through the Aug. 24-dated tally; Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs (three, May-June); the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart (three, May-June); the Billboard Global 200 (two, June); and Streaming Songs (one week, May).

In terms of radio, prior to its Pop Airplay takeover, “Million Dollar Baby” led the Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay and Rhythmic Airplay charts for two weeks each in July. (It’s the third song to lead all three lists in 2024, following Doja Cat’s “Agora Hills” and Jack Harlow’s “Lovin On Me.”)



On the all-genre, multimetric Billboard Hot 100, “Million Dollar Baby” hit No. 2 in May. It has totaled 773 million in radio audience, 559 million official on-demand U.S. streams and 77,000 sold from its release through Aug. 15, according to Luminate.

“This is a big record, but this doesn’t define me,” the Woodbridge, Va., native told Billboard for June’s Chartbreaker spotlight. “I’m using this as, ‘We’re here. We arrived.’ Not as, ‘We made it!’ This is the start of a run.”

All Billboard charts dated Aug. 31 will update Tuesday, Aug. 27, on Billboard.com.
