Top 25 songs in New York City on Shazam in the past week
Doja Cat's "Paint the Town Red" has been at the top of the charts for months now. It's broken Spotify record after Spotify record: the most streams in a single day for a female rap song, the first solo female rap song to top Spotify's U.S. Top 50 chart, and the fastest solo female rap song to hit 100 million streams in the platform's history. The song, which was released in early August, has also been sitting comfortably at the top of the list of the 200 most Shazamed songs across the U.S. But joining it now is her latest single, "Agora Hills," for which she just dropped the video in late September.
Of course, that's hardly the only new song on Shazam's Top 200 chart. Millennials are relishing the return of Justin Timberlake and 'N Sync, who, after reuniting at the MTV Video Music Awards in September, have a new song for the upcoming "Trolls" movie called "Better Place." Not only that, but Timberlake and Nelly Furtado both appear on Timbaland's new single "Keep Going Up," the trio's first collaboration in more than 15 years since 2007's "Give It to Me."
To see which of these songs have hit New York City's soundtrack of the moment, Stacker compiled a list of the songs most often Shazamed in New York City over the past seven days. This list is based on the frequency of Shazam identifications and the song's broader popularity. Take a look at the songs people around you are listening to, and see how much 2000s nostalgia has crept its way in.
