TEA
TEA TOTALING: A chart-topping album of 250k or more is typically more than sufficient to secure #1 in TEA as well as frontline during a given week, but in the absence of a monster debut, the track-equivalent coefficient can be a game-changer. In the generally blah week ending last Sunday (3/2), Schoolboy Q’s solid if not spectacular 138.5k went a long way in pushing IGA to the top spot. But track equivalents from Pharrell (equating to 41.3k albums), John Legend (19.8k) and Beyoncé (9.4k) were the primary drivers in Columbia’s second-place finish, considering the label’s top-selling album, #10 BEYONCÉ, moved 31.5k units.
