WAY EARLY LOOK AT
NEXT WEEK'S CHART

It's looking like there could be yet another chart battle for the week ending 6/7.

Way early guesstimates have the top spot in the 50-60k range. Billie Eilish has a serious shot at returning to the throne with her record-shattering Darkroom/Interscope album, but Valory/BMLG's Thomas Rhett should be pulling out all the stops to bow big with upcoming release Center Point Road, which drops Friday 5/31. And following the theatrical release of the highly anticipated Rocketman flick, Elton John's greatest-hits set Diamonds and Interscope's Rocketman soundtrack could prove to be legit contenders, assuming the movie turns out to be a hit.

In fact, at press time, the biggest favorites are Diamonds and Rhett. But it could be a wild week, and We the Best/Epic's DJ Khaled and Columbia's Tyler, The Creator may still be lurking nearby. Stay tuned for updates...
