Soul Sweep: June 21, 2014...

We're at the "hump" of today's "chart sweeps", taking in the song making the radio charts in Billboard magazine, and this time I'm serving the latest on R&B stations...

On the main R&B/Hip Hop Airplay chart, Chris Brown remains on top for a third with with "Loyal"...

Robin Thicke went to #1 on this chart last year with "Blurred Lines"....he returns at #45 with a single from a new album rumored to be called Paula, for his estranged wife, and it tries to "Get Her Back". It also moves up to #11 on the Adult R&B chart

Neo-soul singer Kem returns at #50 with "It's You", my "Soul Pick Of The Week"...

Meanwhile, on the older-skewing Adult R&B radio panel, Pharrell's "Happy" is on top for a 12th week, while the aforementioned "It's You" by Kem leaps in as the highest entry at #16...

Trey Songz moves in at #25 with "What's Best For You". He topped this format in 2011 with "Can't Be Friends"...

Alt-soul singer Avery*Sunshine falls in at #29 with "Call My Name"...

The last new song on this chart at #30 is Eric Nolan with "Reminds Me". As Eric Grant, he was one-third of the latter-version lineup of the soul titans the O'Jays...

Lastly, on the Rhythmic format, which includes more dance music in their playlists, Iggy Azalea spends a second week at #1 with "Fancy"...

The sole debut at #39 is YouTube songstress Becky G with "Shower"...

I'll be back in 90 with the latest on Country radio.....groove on!
