From Billboard:

“WAP” roars in at No. 1 on both the Streaming Songs and Digital Song Sales charts, with 93 million U.S. streams and 125,000 downloads sold in the week ending Aug. 13, according to Nielsen Music/MRC Data. It also drew 11.6 million radio airplay audience impressions in the week ending Aug. 16. “WAP” is Cardi B’s third No. 1 on Streaming Songs and fourth on Digital Song Sales.
