YOU'LL HATE THIS TOP 20, IT'S AWESOME

Kanye West's ye appears headed to collect around 200 million streams in its first week, as the seven-track release heads for a #1 bow on our Top 50 chart.

Post Malone's beerbongs and bentleys could well log another week over 100k, its sixth, and should now be eligible for double-platinum certification, having collected over 1m in total activity in its first five weeks of release. Luke Combs' This One's For You lands in the Top 5 with the release of its deluxe version, This One's for You Too. Maroon 5 reappears in the Top 20 after the release last week of the "Girls Like You" video.
