Plus, Hanumankind and Kalmi ’s “Big Dawgs” bounds to No. 9 on the Global 200 and No. 8 on Global Excl. U.S. It marks the first top 10 on the rankings for the respective rapper and producer, both from India.
The Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts, which began in September 2020, rank songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by Luminate. The Global 200 is inclusive of worldwide data and the Global Excl. U.S. chart comprises data from territories excluding the United States.
Chart ranks are based on a weighted formula incorporating official-only streams on both subscription and ad-supported tiers of audio and video music services, as well as download sales, the latter of which reflect purchases from full-service digital music retailers from around the world, with sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites excluded from the charts’ calculations.
“Birds of a Feather” repeats atop the Global 200 with 85.5 million streams (up 9%) and 16,000 sold (up 129%) worldwide Aug. 9-15. Helping boost its profile, Eilish performed the song at the 2024 Summer Olympics Closing Ceremony Aug. 11 in Los Angeles, where the next summer games will be held in 2028.
