NEW RELEASES:
CATCH A WAVE

It's entirely possible that Interscope will battle The Weeknd again next week for #1. This time Rod Wave will succeed 5 Seconds of Summer as the ’Scope’s challenger. At present, we’re ballparking both The Weeknd and Rod Wave at around 70k. Lil Uzi Vert’s set, entering its fifth week, could also pose a challenge.

Rod Wave (Alamo/Geffen/Interscope) 65-75k total activity, 2-3k albums
Sam Hunt (MCA Nashville) 45-55k, 15-20k

In HITS news, we’ve been informed that we’re among the first businesses of this new era to earn Zoom’s coveted “cesspool” rating.
