SONG REVENUE CHART:
NAS X GOES TO “TOWN"
Welp, he did it again. Columbia phenom Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road” just keeps going…and going. The genre-busting mega-smash took in another $354k last week as it continues to tower over the field in our latest Song Revenue Chart.
Nas' labelmate Tyler, The Creator was next with “Earfquake” from his chart-topping IGOR.
We the Best/Epic’s DJ Khaled had two of the Top 10 earners, while Right Hand Music/RCA’s Khalid hit the leaderboard as well at #10.
As a result, resurgent Sony Music snagged 47% of the Top 50 revenue marketshare, besting UMG (35%) for the first time in recent memory. WMG accounted for 17%.
