THA CHART FINAL: MORGAN ABIDES, DEBUTS ABOUND
Morgan Wallen adds another 209k to his already swollen coffers this week as I’m the Problem (Big Loud/Mercury/Republic) spends yet another week at #1. Meanwhile, no fewer than three debuts land in the Top 5.
The biggest of these is Tha Carter VI, by Young Money/Republic’s Lil Wayne, which bows at #2 with 114k. That's followed by K-pop septet ENHYPEN (BELIFT LAB/Geffen), locking down 97k+ with DESIRE: UNLEASH, good for #3, and Columbia’s Addison Rae, whose Addison—Is she ditching the “Rae?” Is that still pending? Won’t someone send us a press release?—notches a nifty 48k+ and a #4 berth in her opening frame.
SZA’s unstoppable SOS (TDE/RCA) rounds out the Top 5.
Roadrunner rock band Turnstile, which has been turning heads on the festival circuit, scores an impressive Top 10 premiere with about 37k, which we’re told is a career high.
Speaking of career highs, our bong awaits, so let’s wrap it up: This week saw the arrival of a new set from Galactic/Republic rapper Lil Tecca, who’s got DSP heat at present with two singles; music by MCA’s Dierks Bentley, RCA’s Backstreet Boys, KQ’s ATEEZ, The Other Shoe/Reprise’s Neil Young & the Chrome Hearts and Fiction/Capitol’s The Cure; a live set courtesy of Republic’s Jonas Brothers; and an anniversary reissue from Columbia/Sony’s New Kids on the Block (yes, Backstreet and NKOTB). Consult your local record emporium for details.
This weekend, America will debate whether we want to return to being ruled by a monarch. It should be stimulating.
