MALONE'S "ROCKSTAR" SETS APPLE MUSIC STREAMING RECORD

In an interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music’s Beats 1, Republic's Malone said "I had finished the record a while ago and was looking for the perfect feature and I figured 21 Savage would tie everything in together. I figure it’d come out perfect and it did."
