TAY STAYS PERFECT

Taylor Swift’s Midnights (3am Edition) sees 16 tracks log a second week on the HITS Song Revenue Chart, with seven of those tracks still in the Top 10, making Tay $1.26m wealthier. Rihanna’s “Lift Me Up” (Westbury Road/Roc Nation/Def Jam/Hollywood) from the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever soundtrack (Hollywood) opens at #3 with $111k. TDE/RCA’s SZA collects $86k for “Shirt,” enough for a #10 debut.
