Muni Long's 'Ruined Me' Hits No. 1 on the Adult R&B Airplay Chart

Muni Long scores back-to-back No. 1s ten Billboard's Adult R&B Airplay chart as “Ruined Me” climbs from the runner-up spot to crown the list dated Nov. 30. The single captures the summit as the most-played song on US monitored adult R&B radio stations in the tracking week ending Nov. 21, a 14% improvement from the previous week, according to Luminate.

“Ruined Me,” released and promoted through Supergiant/MPR Global/Def Jam/Republic Records, follows Muni Long's previous leader, “Make Me Forget,” a one-week champ in August. Both songs appear on the singer-songwriter's Revenge album, which dropped on Aug. 30.

Elsewhere, “Ruined Me” repeats at its No. 12 high on the R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart, which ranks songs by combined audience totals from adult R&B and mainstream R&B/hip-hop radio stations. Despite no change in rank, the single rose to 8.1 million audience impressions, a 13% improvement over the previous week.

While “Ruined Me” enjoys its coronation on Adult R&B Airplay, the song is beginning to make inroads on the Mainstream R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart, where it debuted at No. 35. Thanks to its growing promotion efforts, the track vaults 51% in its week-over-week play count.

Radio gains help “Ruined Me” hold at No. 14, two weeks after its No. 12 best, on the multimetric Hot R&B Songs chart, which blends airplay with streaming and sales for its rankings.

2024 continues to be a banner year at radio for Muni Long, who first recorded under the name Priscilla Renae but enjoyed a resurgence – complete with a new stage name – that began with the viral hit “Hrs and Hrs” two years ago. She recaptured the same viral-to-radio magic with “Made for Me” earlier this year, leading to its seven-week dominance on the R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart in April – May, and follow up “Made Me Forget” became another top 20 success, peaking at No. 18 in August.

In addition to Muni Long's own Revenge singles, the singer-songwriter has another hit in “I Do,” with Tooss. The pair's collaboration jumps 18-16 on R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay through a 7% weekly audience boost to 4.8 million impressions.
