Miley Cyrus closed out the format with her hit “Wrecking Ball.” Meanwhile, Def Jam/IDJ’s Rihanna picked up 33 new stations with “What Now.” Other closeouts included the tireless AWOLNATION, Bonnie McKee, Selena Gomez, and Republic’s John Newman.
RHYTHMIC

Naya Rivera f/Big Sean “Sorry” (Columbia) T Pain’s “Up Down” (RCA), Rihanna’s “What Now” (Def Jam/IDJ) and Jason Derulo’s “Marry Me” (Warner Bros.) all have solid first weeks. Lorde’s “Royals” (Lava/Republic) Ariana Grande f/Big Sean “Right There” (Republic) and Sage The Gemini’s “Gas Pedal” (Empire/Republic) continue to clean up the stragglers.
