Hey!
Hot Adult Contemporary (HAC) is a smaller format than CHR/Pop, but still has decent AI numbers and can impact sales, so it's still important. The audience for HAC is older than the audience for Pop, plays a lot of the same type of music as Pop without the most rhythmic stuff (generally there is little to no rap to be found on HAC) and is more likely to play ballads or what would be classified as "light" rock than CHR. It's also a slower moving format than CHR, and anything that goes to the top 5 on CHR is all but guaranteed Top 5 on HAC unless it's straight up rap. There's a LOT of crossover between these charts.
It'll give WFL more longevity and staying power on the radio.
Congrats to Rihanna on getting her first top 10 HAC hit! 
That would just make the 11th week even more possible!
Not true, but funny!
