STREAMING SONGS: KENDRICK IN CONTROL
You might as well call the latest BuzzAngle Music-powered Streaming Songs Chart "That DAMN Chart," since Kendrick Lamar has the entire Top 10 and 14 of the Top 16 songs.
Yep, it's all about DAMN. (TDE/Interscope) this week, with only Freebandz/Epic's Future and Atlantic's Lil Uzi Vert claiming any non-Kendrick real estate in the Top 15.
Marketshare breaks down thusly: UMG 74% Sony 13% WMG 11%.
Debuting at #50, meanwhile, is K-Dot's labelmate Playboi Carti, with "Woke Up Like This" (AWGE/Interscope). The rapper got a huge boost after a splashy appearance at Coachella and has been building a formidable social presence.
