The Rolling Stones’ album of blues covers, Blue & Lonesome (Interscope), slides in at #5 followed by John Legend’s Darkness and Light (Columbia) at #8. Deadmau5’s latest on mau5trap Recordings, W:/2016ALBUM/ is #9, one slot ahead of the clean version of The Hamilton Mixtape.

Apple Music, meanwhile, has become the land of XO/Republic’s The Weeknd, whose tracks from Starboy occupy 16 of the Top 20’s slots. The Hamilton Mixtape sits at #18.
