IHeartRadio provided me an exclusive look at the most popular songs streamed on its app from Atlanta listeners last month. There is a solid correlation with what's popular on Atlanta radio.

Six songs overlapped between the top 10's of each. Fetty Wap's "Trap Queen" is No. 13 on the Mediabase airplay chart but No. 1 on streams. Flo Rida's "GDRF" is at No. 19 on radio airplay but No. 5 on IHeartRadio streams. "Chains" is at No. 12 on airplay, No. 9 on streams and "Slow Motion" at No. 16 on airplay, No. 10 on streams.

Just for comparison, here are the top 10 most played songs on Atlanta radio, according to Mediabase 24/7

1. "Earned It" - The Weeknd

2. "Love Me Like You D" - Ellie Goulding

3. "Sugar" Maroon 5

4. "Style" Taylor Swift

5. "Shut Up and Dance" Walk the Moon

6. "Uptown Funk" Mark Ronson

7. "Want To Want Me' Jason DeRulo

8. "See You Again" Wiz Khalifa with Charlie Puth

9. "Thinking Out Loud" Ed Sheeran

10. "Blank Space" Taylor Swift
