“Middle Child” has delivered another birthday present to
Dreamville/
Roc Nation’s
J. Cole: While the rapper is blowing out 34 candles, the single is the biggest mover on the
Shazam USA Top 100.
Besides Cole’s track spiking to #5 on the Shazam USA Top 100, “Roses,” the rising hit from
Benny Blanco & Juice WRLD f/
Panic! At the Disco lead singer
Brendon Urie (
Friends Keep Secrets/
Interscope), blooms on the U.S. and U.K. lists. It’s
the biggest mover in Blighty, along with
Nouela’s cover of
Paul Simon’s “The Sound of Silence” that was featured in two episodes of
ITV’s
Cold Feet.
TV placements also helped in the U.S. “Hold On” from
Island’s
Bishop Briggs, which has never been officially released, gets thumbs wagging after a placement on
ABC’s
The Good Doctor. The White Buffalo, who were oft-heard on
Sons of Anarchy and
Californication, get their 10-year-old track “The Woods” on the list after a synch in
Marvel’s The Punisher on
Netflix.
