OUR WEEKLY
REVENUE CHART

While Ed Sheeran and Drake retain the top two spots on this week's Song Revenue Chart (with modest declines), Kendrick Lamar bows at #5 with a nice showing for "The Heart Part 4."

UMG holds a whopping 62% of the marketshare here, with Drake taking 18 of the Top 50 spots. WMG has 19%, Sony 16% and indies 3%.

Though his global post begins in the fall, freshly anointed WMG Recorded Music CEO Max Lousada will undoubtedly be psyched to see Sheeran, Bruno Mars (#3), new inking Kyle (who moves #17-8) and breakout Kodak Black (#21-13) occupying the upper section of the chart.

Post ACMs, Sam Hunt's "Body Like a Back Road" zoomed #20-9. A couple of EDM-pop collabs also jumped: The Chainsmokers/Coldplay tandem "Something Just Like This" moves #12-7, while "Stay" from Zedd & Alessai Cara flies #23-12.

Dig into all the numbers here.
