    Sabrina Carpenter claims her first No. 1 on Billboard ’s Adult Pop Airplay chart as “Espresso” rises to the top spot.

    The song, released on Island Records and promoted to radio by Republic, rules the Aug. 17-dated chart with a 4% gain in plays Aug. 2-8. (The list ranks songs by weekly plays on 80 adult top 40 radio stations monitored by Mediabase, with data provided to Billboard by Luminate.)

    “Espresso” previously topped the mainstream top 40-based Pop Airplay chart for three weeks in July. It followed Carpenter’s “Feather,” which led for a week in April, marking her first No. 1 on the ranking.

    “Espresso” has dominated both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts and reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 .

    The song and follow-up single “Please Please Please,” which in June became Carpenter’s first Hot 100 No. 1 , are from her album Short n’ Sweet , due Aug. 16.

    Meanwhile, Taylor Swift scores her record-extending 32nd Adult Pop Airplay top 10 as “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” bounds three places to No. 9 (up 21% in plays). The song is the second top 10 from her album The Tortured Poets Department , after “Fortnight,” featuring Post Malone, became her 13th No. 1 in June.
