Bruno Mars's 'Risk It All' Hits New Peak on Pop Airplay

Bruno Mars's latest track, "Risk It All," has ascended to a new peak position of No. 2 on the U.S. Pop Airplay chart. This marks the song's highest placement on the chart, which tracks radio airplay on mainstream top 40 stations nationwide. The song's advance means it has now matched the No. 2 peak previously achieved by Mars's 2011 collaboration, "Lighters," with Bad Meets Evil.

Currently, "Dracula," a collaboration between K-pop star Jennie and Tame Impala, occupies the No. 1 position on the Pop Airplay chart. The track has now held the top spot for three consecutive weeks. "Risk It All" is the second single from Mars's recent album, "The Romantic," his first solo project in nearly a decade.

With "Risk It All" reaching No. 2, Bruno Mars is inching closer to a potential thirteenth No. 1 hit on the Pop Airplay chart. He already holds the second-highest number of No. 1 singles on this tally, with 12 leaders to his name. This places him ahead of artists like Justin Bieber and Katy Perry, who each have 11 chart-toppers. Earlier this year, Mars did achieve a No. 1 with "I Just Might," which ruled for six weeks.

In addition to "Risk It All" at No. 2, another of Mars's songs, "I Just Might," is also currently in the top 10, holding strong at No. 6. This makes Mars the only artist with two songs in the current Pop Airplay top 10.
