\n\tAs \u201cFolded\u201d enters the summit, it unseats Chris Brown\u2019s \u201cIt Depends,\u201d featuring Bryson Tiller, from the top after a nine-week reign. The former champ slips one rung after shedding 2% in weekly plays.<\/p>\n

\n\tPrior to \u201cFolded,\u201d Kehlani landed in the Mainstream R&B\/Hip-Hop Airplay penthouse via a feature on Cardi B\u2019s \u201cRing,\u201d which ruled for one week in November 2018. As a lead artist, Kehlani\u2019s previous best showing was a No. 2 result for \u201cBeautiful Lies,\u201d a collaboration with Yung Bleu, in March 2022.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn addition to \u201cFolded,\u201d Kehlani claims two more songs on this week\u2019s Mainstream R&B\/Hip-Hop Airplay chart. They once again support Cardi B, but this time on the rapper\u2019s \u201cSafe,\u201d which slides 7-8 on the chart (down 11%) after it peaked at No. 3 last month. Plus, Kehlani\u2019s own \u201cFolded\u201d follow-up, \u201cOut the Window\u201d pushes 32-30 in its third week on the chart thanks to a 9% jump in weekly plays.<\/p>\n
