TOP 10 TRACKS: Don’t write off the digital download business just yet, kiddies. For the second straight week, most of the tracks on the leaderboard were in positive territory, while Taylor Swift’s pop move has taken her within a split hair of 900k in just two weeks. Fellow superstar Eminem made a splash with his latest, this time teaming with Sia, whose “Chandelier,” sitting at #11, has passed 1.2m. Meghan Trainor once again moved more than a quarter of a million digi-units, setting up “All About That Bass” to blow past 1.5m this week. A certain power trio’s “Bang Bang” enjoyed a 54% uptick, Nicki Minaj’s “Anaconda” scored a +57% and Iggy Azalea’s Rita Ora-enhanced “Black Widow” added 32%, rounding out an estrogen-fueled Top 5. Sam Smith is the lone male among the eight top-sellers, as “Stay With Me” keeps chugging along en route to 2.5m. With four of the Top 10, Republic is riding high, as the label’s TEA score readily indicates.
