SPOTIFY STANDINGS: RAE ALL THE WAY

Last week, Rae Sremmurd's "Black Beatles" (Eardruma/Interscope)—the song behind the viral Mannequin Challenge videos—was able to push The Chainsmokers f/Halsey's "Closer" (Disruptor/Columbia) out of the top spot on Spotify's Global Top 200, following a 12-week reign. This week, the hip-hop track has officially flown to #1 in the U.K., while it holds at #1 in the U.S. for a third week.

Meanwhile, The Weeknd's "Party Monster" (XO/Republic)—a cut from his just-released Starboy—joins lead single (and title track) "Starboy" on Spotify's stateside chart; "Starboy" is #3 and "Party Monster" is #9.

And Atlantic U.K.'s Bruno Mars enters the streaming giant's Top 10 at #9 in Blighty. "24k Magic" also enters the global chart this week at #6.
