Noah Kahan’s ‘The Great Divide’ hits #1 on ’Billboard’ Alternative Airplay

Alternative radio is united in playing Noah Kahan’s “The Great Divide.”

The latest single from the “Stick Season” artist has flown to the top of the Billboard Alternative Airplay chart in just four weeks following its premiere at the end of January. It’s the fastest song to conquer Alternative Airplay since Linkin Park’s comeback single “The Emptiness Machine,” which took three weeks to hit #1 in 2024.

“The Great Divide” gives Kahan his second #1 on Alternative Airplay, following his song “Dial Drunk,” specifically the version featuring Post Malone.

“The Great Divide” is the lead single and title track off Kahan’s upcoming album, due out April 24. He’ll launch a U.S. tour in June.
