Doja Cat's sleeper hit "Paint The Town Red" has returned to No. 1 as her album, "Scarlet" was released last week.

Meanwhile, Taylor Swift leads the Radio Airplay chart with "Cruel Summer" as the track is slowly poising for a higher Hot 100 placement in the next weeks.

Doja Cat 'Paint The Town Red' Billboard Hot 100

According to Billboard and Luminate, Doja Cat's "Paint The Town Red" rebounded atop the Billboard Hot 100 charts this week.

It raked in 52.6 million radio airplay audience impressions, making it the top Airplay Gainer for two consecutive weeks. Its streaming power increased by 3% with 27.5 million streams. However, its downloads went down 19% with 6,000 recorded purchases this week.

The song has reached No. 1 on the Streaming Songs Chart, making it her first cheerleader. Despite the decrease in downloads, it is still the No. 1 on the Digital Song Sales chart and Radio Airplay Gain sealed it at No. 7.

Concurrently, the song tops the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Rap Songs for the fifth and sixth week respectively.

SZA 'Snooze' Billboard Hot 100

Meanwhile, SZA's "Snooze" reached a new peak at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts. If it would reach No. 1 before the year ends, she would be the first artist in the 2020 decade to have three Top 1 songs in a year. (via Billboard)

Notably, "Kill Bill" peaked at No. 1 earlier this year, thanks to an assist from Doja Cat; SZA and Drake's "Slime You Out" debuted atop last week, and "Snooze" is on its way to being the third, hopefully.

Taylor Swift 'Cruel Summer' Billboard Hot 100

On the other hand, Taylor Swift's "Cruel Summer" is at No. 4, just behind No. 3's "Fast Cars" by Luke Combs. (via Billboard)

It has now peaked at No. 1 on the Radio Songs Chart, making it Swift's eighth song to reach No. 1. She is now tied with Marron 5, Katy Perry, and Usher for the fourth artist with the most songs on the Radio Songs chart.

Zach Bryan and Kacey Musgrave's "I Remember Everything" is at No. 5, Morgan Wallen's "Last Night" is at No. 6, while "Vampire," "fukumean," "Calm Down" and "Dance The Night" follow suit. Check out this week's Billboard Hot 100 Top 10 below.
