‘Ran$om’
Revs To
No. 2
“Ran$om” by Lil Tecca
(above) is the Streaming
Songs chart’s Greatest
Gainer. It hits a new peak of
No. 2 in its 10th week on the
list and earns 43.3 million
streams (up 18% in the week
ending Aug. 15), according
to Nielsen Music. The
track concurrently rules
On-Demand Streaming
Songs, which only tallies
on-demand audio clicks, for
a second week, garnering
24 million streams. Lil Tecca
is the fourth act to rule the
list with their first charting
title there, following Jonas
Brothers, YNW Melly and
Lil Nas X.
Disney Channel’s
Descendants TV movie
franchise — which is
mourning the loss of one of
its stars, Cameron Boyce,
who died July 6 — returns to
Streaming Songs as Sarah
Jeffery’s “Queen of Mean”
(from Descendants 3) bows
at No. 36 with 16.5 million
streams in its second week
of release, up 39%. Her
debut eclipses the No. 38
entrance and peak of the
series’ other appearance
on the chart, “What’s My
Name” — by China Anne
McClain, Thomas Doherty
and Dylan Playfair — in
August 2017. Descendants 3
premiered Aug. 2 and is the
series’ final film.
Meanwhile, Marshmello
and Kane Brown’s “One
Thing Right” reenters
Streaming Songs at No. 42
(10.5 million streams). Its
17% boost is due to the
Aug. 9 release of a remix EP
featuring five new versions
of the cut. It’s also a new
peak for the track, which
bowed on the Aug. 3 list at
No. 44, slid to No. 47 the
next week and then fell off
the chart before returning.

Red
Velvet
Returns
Red Velvet (below) is back
on the Social 50 thanks to
the announcement of its
second EP of 2019, The
ReVe Festival: Day 2. The
K-pop girl group reenters
at No. 8 after an eight-day
gap between Twitter posts
(Aug. 1-9) was ended by
promo for Day 2, led by the
EP’s official announcement
on Aug. 12. In the week
ending Aug. 15, Red
Velvet earned 441,000
Twitter reactions, 240,000
mentions and 22,000 new
followers, according to
Next Big Sound. Day 2 is
scheduled for release on
Aug. 20 and follows The
ReVe Festival: Day 1, which
debuted at No. 7 on the
World Albums chart dated
June 29.
Elsewhere on the
Social 50, former Wanna
One member Kang Daniel
strikes out on his own
and debuts at No. 29. The
22-year-old’s contract with
Wanna One expired at the
end of December 2018, and
the singer made his official
debut on July 25 with the
EP Color on Me. Daniel has
been in the news thanks to
reports that he and TWICE
member Jihyo are dating,
as well as his appearance
in an ad for the Samsung
Galaxy Note 10. During the
tracking frame, he garnered
159,000 reactions and
was mentioned on Twitter
85,000 times.
Mike Posner also debuts
on the Social 50, entering
at No. 45. The singer, who
is currently journeying
across the United States
on foot, garnered 46,000
Twitter reactions. They
mostly occurred after
Posner revealed that, in
the midst of his walk, he
had been bitten by a baby
rattlesnake, requiring a brief
hospitalization. “I knew
walking across America
was going to be dangerous,”
he wrote Aug. 11. “I knew
I could die doing it. I still
might.” —Kevin Rutherford
