TAG, THEY'RE IT
Two Timbaland-produced tracks from the new Fox series Empire (Columbia) are among the biggest gainers on Shazam's USA Top 100 Tags Chart this week (see our brand-new chat with the legendary music-maker here). Ellie Goulding's 50 Shades track (Republic) continues to make a strong impression, as do new cuts from Big Machine's Taylor Swift and RCA's Chris Brown f/Tyga. Among other movers, Warner Bros.' Royal Blood jumps 29 spots with the blazing "Figure It Out." For more of what Americans are pointing their phones at, sortable by rank, artist and biggest gainers, go here. On the U.K. side, Goulding makes the biggest strides, but most of the other top gainers are featured on the BBC's Sound of 2015 list, issued this week.
