“Shape of You” by Ed Sheeran.

In the first hit by our favorite DJ, (DJ) Khaled that is, the No. 4 spot belongs to “Wild Thoughts” featuring Rihanna and Bryson Tiller.

Back-to-back hits for DJ Khaled bringing us the No. 3 song with “I’m the One” featuring a host of talented stars including Justin Bieber, Quavo, Chance the Rapper and Lil Wayne.
