STREAMING SONGS: PLAYLIST PLAYERS

Republic claims the top two spots on this week's Streaming Songs Chart, as "God's Plan" by Drake retains the #1 spot and Post Malone climbs to #2 with "Psycho" f/Ty Dolla $ign. Along with "Plug Walk" by Interscope's Rich the Kid, these offerings also give UMG three of the Top 5. The House of Grainge also has the top streaming debut with "In My Blood" from Island's Shawn Mendes (#10).

Indeed, Universal has a commanding 64% marketshare this week, with WMG (whose Blocboy f/Drake is #4) taking 20%, Sony 13% and indies 2%.

BMG's Lil Dicky, fueled by a viral video, moves #9-6 with"Freaky Friday" f/Chris Brown. In a related story, did you know that half of the personnel at Dicky's agency of record, UTA, switched bodies with the other half? We'd take a polygraph and swear to it, if we had Stormy Daniels-level confidence. But we don't.

Columbia's N.E.R.D. f/Rihanna pops in at #20 with "Lemon," while another Mendes track, "Lost in Japan," bows (see what we did there?) at #25.

As for the rest of the chart, look at it your own damn self.
