TAG, THEY'RE IT! SHAZAM'S BIGGEST MOVERS
Post Malone's country pivot is paying off. "I Had Some Help" (Mercury/REPUBLIC in partnership with Big Loud), his new collaboration with Morgan Wallen, is Shazam's biggest gainer this week. Landing at #2 is Ini Kamoze's 1994 smash, "Here Comes the Hot Stepper" (Columbia), the Jamaican dancehall artist's only Top 40 hit (but what a hit).
Following closely behind is servant's "BBL Drizzy," a nod to Metro Boomin's instrumental Drake diss of the same name. Rounding out the Top 5 is "Ronald" by Falling in Reverse f/Tech N9ne and Alex Terrible and "Heat Stick" by Shoreline Mafia's OHGEESY and Fenix Flexin. By the way, we still don't know what a "BBL" is (and we're afraid to find out).
