Nearly four months after landing in the top 10 of Billboard’s Hot R&B songs, Ella Mai has watched her comeback hit ‘Little Things‘ make a big move into the Pop charts.
Printed at #89, here are the numbers that powered the premiere placement of ‘Little Things.’
- Streaming ≈ 7.1 million U.S.-based streams
- Sales ≈ 600 digital downloads
- Radio Airplay ≈ 6.2 million audience impressions
Found aboard her November 2024-released three-song EP (aptly titled ‘3‘), the #89 entry of ‘Little’ marks the highest debut Mai’s made on the Hot 100 since her fan-favorite ‘Shot Clock‘ rang into the fourth quadrant of the tally in summer 2019.
Closing a nearly three-year-long absence from the all-genre chart, ‘Little’ also comes as Ella’s first appearance on the hitlist since 2022’s ‘DFMU.’
