CHA-CHING: SHAKEUP ON REVENUE CHART
That was quick. Post Malone’s “rockster” f/21 Savage has generated a sizable pile of cash—$285k—in its first week, beaming it to #1 on our BuzzAngle-powered Song Revenue Chart. That’s more than double the #2 earner, Cardi B’s “Bodak Yellow,” which moves up two slots.
Also upwardly mobile are the three amigos’ remarkably resilient “Despacito,” which rises #10-7, Portugal.The Man’s alt-pop crossover “Feel It Still,” #13-8, and Khalid’s “Young Dumb & Broke,” #11-10.
Follow-ups from Niall Horan, Lorde and James Arthur are the other new entries.
Marketshare standings: UMG, 53%; Sony Music, 29%; WMG, 16%; indies, 2%
