TikTok standout and Eurovision entry “Snap” becomes Rosa Linn‘s first No. 1 on a Billboard chart, ascending to the top of the Adult Alternative Airplay tally dated Oct. 22.
The song was initially released as the Armenian entry for the 2022 Eurovision Song Contest and subsequently went viral on TikTok.
“Snap” is one of a trio of songs in the Adult Alternative Airplay top 10 to score significant buzz on TikTok, alongside Steve Lacy‘s “Bad Habit” at No. 7 and Noah Kahan‘s “Stick Season” at No. 10.
Linn is the first act to reign with a first charted song on Adult Alternative Airplay since Mitski, whose “The Only Heartbreaker” led in March.
“I grew up listening to good music,” Linn told SiriusXM’s Billboard Live on Oct. 18. “My mom loves jazz and my dad is a Beatles fan … Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, everything. That kind of made me different than kids my age. Growing up with that music made me realize that I love what I listen to, and I want to be a part of it.”
Concurrently, “Snap” bullets at No. 29 on the all-rock-format, audience-based Rock & Alternative Airplay chart, after reaching No. 25 earlier in October, with 1.3 million audience impressions, up 3%, according to Luminate. The song also ranks at No. 35, after hitting No. 31, on Alternative Airplay.
On the multimetric, all-genre Billboard Hot 100, “Snap” jumps to a new No. 82 high. In addition to its radio airplay, the song earned 4.5 million official U.S. streams and sold 1,000 downloads in the tracking week ending Oct. 13. It concurrently places at Nos. 24 and 25, respectively, on Pop Airplay and Adult Pop Airplay.
“Snap” continues to score worldwide support, ranking at Nos. 16 and 20 on the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts, respectively.
