Cardi B impacted hip-hop stations across the country with hits like "ErrTime" and "Safe" featuring Kehlani from her sophomore album AM I THE DRAMA? Although her debut album arrived in 2024, Big Glo's smash hits "I Luv Her" with T-Pain and "Whatchu Know Bout Me" featurig Sexyy Red have become staples on playlists everywhere. While Cardi B and GloRilla have maintained their dominance on the radio, Gunna shattered all expectations with "wgft."

The Atlanta native's collaboration with Burna Boy is the No. 1 Hip-Hop song of 2026 after garnering the most total audience spins (TAS) and streams from iHeartRadio stations across the country as well as on the iHeartRadio app. G Herbo comes in second with "Went Legit" followed by Dave & Tems' "Raindance." Belly Gang Kushington comes in at No. 4 with his hit "Friend Do" with YKNIECE, and DaBaby closes out the top 5 with "Pop Dat Thang."
