TAG THEY'RE IT: SHAZAM'S BIGGEST MOVERS

After enjoying a weekend lounging atop sales and streaming charts, Bad Bunny f/Drake’s “MIA” (OVO Sound/Rimas Entertainment/Warner Bros.) clocks in as the greatest gainer on the Shazam USA Top 100. But wait Drake fans! There’s more…

Drake, meanwhile, gets a second entry as Republic starts to work his latest single, “Don’t Matter to Me” f/Michael Jackson (YMCMB/Republic) at radio. It’s the fourth radio single from his Scorpion.

New singles from Kodak Black and Quavo make the list as HBO’s Ballers helps revive CASisDEAD’s May release “Pat Earrings” (XL).

In the U.K., Dave & Fredo’s surprise smash, “Funky Friday,” is the week’s biggest mover, shooting all the way to #4. Radio remains powerful for taggers as new singles from Little Mix f/Nicki Minaj, Jonas Blue and Jess Glynne round out the greatest gainers list. Guess no new adverts were using oldies this week.
