Post Malone and Swae Lee's "Spider-Man" collaboration hits number 7 on the Hot 100.

Post Malone and Swae Lee have been killing all of 2018. Rae Sremmurd released their triple disc effort, Sr3mm which came equipped with Swae Lee's long-awaited solo album, Swaecation and Post Malone dropped off his sophomore release beerbongs & bentleys. Both of their albums proved to be commercial successes on the charts. A few months back. Posty and Swae teamed up for a new collaboration for Spider-Man soundtrack which now became their latest top 10 single on the Billboard Hot 100.

Post Malone and Swae Lee have earned themselves another top 10 single on the Billboard Hot 100 with "Sunflower (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse)." Their single climbed up the charts by 10 spots from 17 to 7 following the film's release. The song previously debuted at #9 in early November. It's not necessarily surprising since both Post Malone and Swae Lee are certified hitmakers, but it's nice to see them cap off a highly productive year with another top 10 single.

The duo are just two of the stars included on Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse soundtrack. Among the other artists included are Lil Wayne and Ty Dolla $ign who linked up on "Scared Of The Dark" ft. XXXTENTACION. Additionally, Nicki Minaj appears on the soundtrack as well as Jaden Smith, Denzel Curry, Vince Staples, Juice WRLD, YBN Cordae, Ski Mask The Slump God, Jacquees and more.
