Saweetie "Tap In" (ICY/Artistry/Warner)
The first record since her 2019 smash, double-platinum "My Type," ICY/Artistry/Warner's Saweetie is starting to gain traction with "Tap In" a month after its release. "Tap In" has received a blitz of action at TikTok over the last two weeks—it's surged to 1 million creations behind multiple videos from leading influencers Addison Rae, James Charles and Charli D'Amelio.
There's also been a boost in streaming coinciding with the TikTok love. Saweetie's "Tap In" hit mutliple peaks at Spotify last week, reaching its latest new high, #95 on the U.S. chart. It also reached #71 at Apple Music and #57 at iTunes over the weekend and climbed to #13 on the Spotify Viral chart. Among the playlists featuring "Tap In" are Apple Music's Rap Life and Spotify's Rap Caviar.
As the streams kick in, so are the spins, adds and airplay at Urban and Rhythm radio. "Tap In" just reached Top 15 at Rhythm and Top 25 at Urban and is a Top 5 Greatest Gainer at both formats.
