The song has drawn airplay on multiple formats since its Friday release.

Justin Bieber's "Yummy" launches on multiple Billboard radio airplay charts (dated Jan. 11), following its Jan. 3 release.
After its first three days of availability (from its release, on SchoolBoy/Raymond Braun/Def Jam, at midnight ET on Jan. 3 through Jan. 5), the track, Bieber's first solo material since his album Purpose in 2015, starts at No. 38 on the all-format Radio Songs chart with 26.7 million audience impressions, according to Nielsen Music.
"Yummy" also charges onto the Pop Songs (No. 22), Rhythmic Songs (No. 28) and Adult Pop Songs (No. 29) format-specific airplay charts. Boosting the song's profile, participating iHeartMedia-owned stations played it hourly in its first day of release.
The track is additionally scoring early support on a sampling of R&B/hip-hop stations. Notes Doc Wynter, iHeartMedia executive vp urban/hip-hop programming strategy and program director of mainstream R&B/hip-hop-formatted KRRL Los Angeles, "This is the first Bieber record we've ever played on Real 92.3."
"Pop radio needs superstars, and Justin certainly, and capably, fits the bill," says Erik Bradley, assistant pd/music director at Pop Songs reporter WBBM-FM (B96) Chicago, which played "Yummy" 49 times in its first three days. "It's what I expected sonically, especially with his teasing of 'R&Bieber' on socials last year. I love the vibe."
"Yummy" also enters the streaming-, airplay- and sales-based Billboard Hot 100's Bubbling Under chart at No. 13, solely from its first three days of airplay (Jan. 3-5). Following its first week of streaming and sales tracking (Jan. 3-9) and its first full week of radio airplay measurement (Jan. 6-12, as the airplay tracking week encompasses a Monday-Sunday period while streaming and sales cover Friday-Thursday), the song, whose official video dropped Jan. 4, should debut in the upper reaches of next week's Hot 100 (dated Jan. 11).

Why Christopher Reeve's ''Superman' Is So Hard to Leave in the Past

#ChristopherReeve #Clarkkent #DCcomics #LoisLane #RichardDonner #Superman Forty years ago, Richard Donner and Christopher Reeve made a Superhero film that directors have been chasing for years, depicting who America was then — or at least who we wished to be Superman. It’s now easy to believe a man can fly. It wasn’t in 1978, but today, in midst of an explosion of superhero movies, it’s a belief we give into with relative ease. Flight is most often the bare minimum of what we expect from heroes and villains who can perform any feat limited only by the human imagination. It’s not simply special effects that permit our belief, but rather an overall acceptance that these costume-clad characters are a defining part of our culture, modern myths at their best and populist cinematic staples akin to the 20th century western at their lowest form. There have been a record nine theatrically released superhero movies based on comic books this year alone, each claiming a major piece of the glo...
