Rihanna has scored her 32nd top 10 single — and her first in five years — with “Lift Me Up,” the first track to emerge from Marvel’s blockbuster sequel “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.”…
did not relinquish the top spot, as “Anti-Hero” held on at No. 1 for a second consecutive week. She did let go of her grip on the entire top 10, however. Last week, Swift set a record by claiming all 10 of the Hot 100’s top 10 songs, with tunes from her “Midnights” album; this week, she is down to a mere four in the top 10.
The song has been described as a tribute to the life and legacy of Chadwick Boseman; it was written by Nigerian singer-songwriter Tems, film composer Ludwig Göransson and director Ryan Coogler along with Rihanna. There was also an unexpected rebound moving back up into those upper ranks. Baby Keem’s “The Melodic Blue,” a September 2021 release, jumps from No. 105 to No. 7 following its Oct. 28 deluxe reissue and debut on vinyl. Ten additional tracks were added to the album, although the vinyl LP does not include those bonus tracks.
