Big Sean's "No Favors", featuring a potent guest turn by Eminem, blasts to a No. 3 debut on the Billboard + Twitter Top Tracks chart (dated February 18). Billboard + Twitter Top Tracks (which began in June 2014) is a weekly ranking of the most shared and/or mentioned songs on Twitter in the U.S., ranked by the volume of shares over a seven-day period (Monday to Sunday).
Just below "No Favors", Imagine Dragons start at No. 4 with "Believer", earning their first top 10 hit among nine entries since the chart began in May 2014. The band released the track and its official YouTube audio on February 1, with the clip jumping to 3.4 million global views on Youtube through February 8.
Also in the top 10, Mariah Carey scores a No. 9 arrival for "I Don't", featuring YG. The diva teased the song in the final episode of her E! docuseries Mariah's World, five days before its official February 3 release. The same day, Carey premiered the song's music video, which she directed. The clip, which features her burning her actual wedding dress for her planned marriage to James Packer, has garnered 8.7 million global views on YouTube. The new Carey cut helps power the superstar to 51,000 Twitter mentions, up 162 percent.
Lastly, Depeche Mode moves in at No. 13 with its new single "Where's The Revolution". The song alludes to the heightened political tension in the United Kingdom and United States, with lyrics such as "You've been kept down. You've been pushed 'round. You've been lied to. You've been fed truths." "Revolution" previews the group's fourteenth studio album, Spirit, due out March 17.
