TOP 20: A BATTLE AT THE TOP?

It’s close between Olivia Rodrigo and reigning champ Billie Eilish at the top of this week's chart. For the moment, we’re giving Rodrigo the edge for #1. With the vinyl release of SOUR on Friday, this may be the first of two more weeks in the lead for O-Rod. Of course, Kanye West may have other plans. Whether or not his Donda (G.O.O.D./Def Jam) will arrive this week is anyone’s guess. We’ll believe it when we see it—and will update our forecasts accordingly. Warner Nashville’s Dan + Shay score the week’s biggest debut. Kemosabe/RCA's Doja Cat could also contend for #1.

Now if you'll excuse us, we're going to mask up and crawl into a bottle.
