Shazam users watching Netflix’s Leave the World Behind are pushing R&B tracks from the '80s and '90s—and a two-year-old song by Joey Bada$$—up the Top 100 on both sides of the Atlantic.
Joey Bada$$’ “THE REV3NGE” (Columbia) is the Biggest Mover on the stateside list, while Next’s “Too Close” (Arista), a chart-topper from 1998, is tops in the U.K. following syncs in the Julia Roberts-Mahershala Ali thriller. Blackstreet’s “Never Gonna Let You Go” (Interscope), which appeared on its 1996 album with “No Diggity,” is among the Biggest Movers in both countries; U.S. audiences are also tagging Kool & The Gang’s Top 10 hit from 1984, “Misled” (Mercury).
Fortnite is driving interest in one of The Weeknd’s songs from The Idol: “Popular,” with Madonna and Playboi Carti (XO/Republic).
