Warner Chappell rises to No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 and holds second place on Radio Airplay despite a slight dip in market share.
The publishing executive is just the third woman to receive the award.
For Q2 of 2024, WCM continues to dominate with stakes in 68 of the quarter's top 100 songs at radio, including Zimmerman's "Where It Ends."
The publisher also acknowledges that "the disruption is difficult for some of you" but says its battle with TikTok is "critical."
Chairman/CEO Lucian Grainge said the social media app is just one piece "of the multidisciplinary jigsaw where we promote and market our music globally."
Tracks featuring Universal Music Publishing Group songwriters are now getting pulled as well.
The removal of UMG's songwriters from the platform might prove to be even more impactful than its superstar artists.
“I am grateful to be recognized by my peers in the music industry," says Gerson.
The singer-songwriter was previously signed to Sony Music Publishing.
Meanwhile, Sony sweeps all three Publishers Quarterly categories for Q3 2023, while Warner Chappell jumps to second place on Hot 100.
