Post Malone's Biggest Hit Beats His New Country Smashes As It Grows
"Sunflower," Malone's collaboration with Swae Lee, currently appears on four Billboard rankings. Two of these tallies are based entirely on U.S. consumption, while the track also manages to live on a pair of global rosters.
The cut, which was written and recorded for the film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, is currently the only one of Malone's charting tunes that lifts across every list on which it appears — an incredibly impressive feat for a cut that was originally a smash in 2018.
This week, "Sunflower" inches to No. 11 on the Rap Streaming Songs chart, nearing the top 10 once more. It also breaks back into the top 20 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Streaming Songs ranking, climbing from No. 22 to No. 20.
At the same time, Malone's tune ascends a few spots on the Billboard Global Excl. U.S., settling at No. 171. It appears almost 50 spaces higher on the Billboard Global 200, landing at No. 127.
"Sunflower" is the highest-certified song in U.S. history, as it remains the only double diamond tune. That means that in the U.S. alone, it has shifted 20 million equivalent units, combining sales and streaming activity.
Its consistent consumption has kept it on all four of the Billboard charts mentioned for at least 100 weeks, while it is approaching 250 weeks on the global tallies.
Malone also scores a pair of country wins in America, as both "I Had Some Help" and "I Ain't Coming Back," which both feature Morgan Wallen, appear on at least half a dozen tallies apiece.
"I Had Some Help" has been around for well over a year, and is amazingly still the stronger performer of the two in many respects. The collaboration lifts to No. 15 on the Hot 100, 56 weeks into its tenure on the tally. Meanwhile, "I Ain't Coming Back," after just seven frames, dips to No. 21.

Colorado Music Festival musician pursues heights of Colorado, Florida
The Colorado Music Festival brings together exceptional musicians from 44 orchestras across the country and around the world. For four weeks, they live and play in Boulder, performing a packed calendar of four concerts each week. Under the baton of Music Director Peter Oundijian, the orchestra plays to a high standard and has become a world-class creative experience. "This is a great orchestra to play with," said Andrew Karr, Assistant Principal and 3rd horn. "It's made up of musicians from around the country, so it's high level. We're on a tight schedule, so we prepare at a really high level, which I enjoy." For Karr, playing in an orchestra is a childhood dream come true. He lives and plays with the Florida Orchestra in Tampa, Florida. In 2000, he auditioned to be a part of the Colorado Music Festival, and he's been coming to Colorado ever since. "When I first arrived in Colorado, I had zero experience with outdoor stuff," he told CBS News Colorado. Then, like most people who spend time in the state, he heard the call of the 14'ers. "I was really taken by the beauty and the challenge," he explained. "Particularly, I was taken by the concept of doing peaks that were on lists. I think there's something about that for a classical musician because we work so methodically in our profession. There was something about having something methodical I could do outside in the mountains that really sort of appealed to me." He's checked off a fair few 14'ers, but he was missing his list when he was back home. "So I started visiting the high point of each county in Florida," Karr said. He travelled across the state meeting landowners and mapping locations. He said he even needed to learn to kayak to reach islands that held that high point. "I decided that my last county in Florida would be the high point of Florida, which is Britton Hall, which is all of 340 feet about sea level," Karr recalled. Florida is finished now, but Karr keeps climbing in Colorado. "For me, the pursuit is as much as the successful completion," Karr said. From Beethoven to Bierstadt, Karr is pursuing new heights every single summer.

‘Fantastic Four: First Steps' review: Ugh, here we go again
movie review FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS Running time: 115 minutes. Rated PG-13 (action/violence and some language). In theaters July 25. Calling 'Fantastic Four: First Steps' the best 'Fantastic Four' movie is not exactly a quote I'd advise Disney to slap on the poster. Talk about grading on a curve. The last three pathetic attempts to put the story of Mister Fantastic, the Invisible Woman, the Human Torch and the Thing onscreen have made miserable viewers go, 'Global annihilation? Sounds nice.' Not to be deterred, the Marvel Cinematic Universe is dragging the raggedy group out of storage for their 37th movie. That figure is unfortunately not a typo. The result? 'First Steps' marks a slight improvement from the preceding trilogy of terror. But Marvel still can't nail what should be one of its premiere attractions. 'Fantastic Four'? Forgettable, 1 ½. The movie begins, appropriately, with a pep in its step. Dropping the heroes in the retro-futuristic NYC that appears to be a technologically advanced 1960s is the right call by director Matt Shakman and his army of screenwriters. There's 'Jetsons' visual panache that sets the film apart from the other, oy, 36. The team's New York lair could be the TWA Hotel at JFK. Also, gold star for racing through the exposition in a newsreel at the beginning — four years ago some astronauts got neat powers in space, yada yada — to avoid the usual origin story portentousness. However, trembling in fear, 'First Steps' can't resist the comic-book urge to contort the mood ASAP to grave, gloomy and un-fun for most of the runtime. The stakes may be stratospherically high, but our serotonin levels are low, low, low. For the supes, Marvel has recruited some super-serious actors. There's Pedro Pascal, who has probably been frowning so much because he's overworked, as stretchy Reed Richards; Vanessa Kirby, making Medea seem like the life of the party, as vanishing Sue Storm; Joseph Quinn, nervously tip-toeing around genuine comedy, as flaming Johnny Storm; and Ebon Moss-Bachrach with a Zen take on rocky Ben Grimm. They're all fine, if oddly joyless for people wearing powder-blue 'Star Trek' uniforms. I can't say I ever want to see them play these parts again. Good thing they've been cast in at least two more MCU films through 2027. The Four face a couple foes. There's the humongous Galactus, who is essentially Megatron from 'Transformers.' And his shiny cowabunga henchwoman, the Silver Surfer, played by Julia Garner. Whose dumb idea was it to cast Garner, one of the most expressive and electric actors working today, as a slab of metal that speaks in monotone? Fee-fi-ho-hum Galactus is going to gobble up the world. But he offers the Four another option: He'll slow his roll if Reed and Sue hand over their new baby. The doting parents aren't on board with that plan. So, in a scene that lasts — I kid you not — two minutes, they try and fail to teleport the Earth to another part of the universe. In the end, Galactus goes Godzilla and stomps around Manhattan crushing skyscrapers. The Thing, a dude made of rocks, is the closest the movie comes to a fleshed-out person. And only because he cooks pasta and flirts with Natasha Lyonne twice. I'll give 'First Steps' this: It doesn't tie itself in knots making tedious connections to the rest of the MCU. The story is relatively simple, if poorly paced, and the neat aesthetic imagines what an Apple Store would look like during the Kennedy administration. But that's just not enough to prevent Shakman from joining the sorry ranks of filmmakers who couldn't wrap their heads around what the tone of the Fantastic Four should be. Are they funny? Are they grounded? Are they deep? The film is so unbalanced, one wonders if the director and writers donned a blindfold and threw a dart. How dramatic and depressing can a character named Mister Fantastic possibly be? Just you wait. During the climactic battle scene, Galactus torturously stretches Mister Fantastic nearly beyond his limits as Pascal wails an excruciating cry worthy of 'One Life to Live.' I, on the other hand, let out a big laugh. Solve the daily Crossword
