Post Malone breaks Apple Music’s single week streaming record

Post Malone has shattered Apple Music’s single week streaming record with over 25

million streams of his new single “Rockstar” feat. 21 Savage, the streaming service tells The Verge. The previous record holder for worldwide single week streams was “I’m the One” by DJ Khaled. This is the latest streaming victory for Malone, who racked up over 1 billion streams and four platinum singles from his debut album Stoney. Apple Music has a lengthy history of working with Post Malone, even before he got signed to Republic Records, Carl Chery, Apple Music’s head of artist curation tells me. “We just have a long history of supporting Post Malone, even before he got signed. ‘White Iverson’ was being heavily supported in iTunes — that song is old enough that Apple Music wasn’t even live yet. We were supporting him heavily back then, and we did the same thing with the Stoney project last year,” Chery says. “The process is pretty simple for us, if we like it, we support it.”                                                                                                               https://www.theverge.com/2017/9/25/16358026/post-malone-rockstar-apple-music-single-week-streaming-record
