Teddy Swims' "Mr. Know It All" rose two spots to No. 1 on Billboard's Pop Airplay chart on the Nov. 14-dated listing. The song, released on SWIMS Int./Warner Records, is the singer's second No. 1 on the chart.

Why it matters

The Pop Airplay ranking is based on weekly plays across nearly 150 U.S. mainstream top 40 radio stations, so the result reflects broad radio adoption across the country. It follows Swims' earlier chart success, including "Lose Control," which led the category for two weeks in April 2024.

"Mr. Know It All" has peaked at No. 26 on the Billboard Hot 100 and is Swims' fourth top 40 hit on that chart. Its Pop Airplay standing is measured by radio plays, and the source does not report streaming or sales figures for the track.
