HITS 5/31: Billie Eilish #1, #4 YG, #5 Moneybagg Yo, #7 Alad

[Baby Yoda Hot100Fan]

NEW RELEASES: PASS THE BRIQUETS

Saturday, May 25, 2019

Due to the holiday weekend, please expect a greater than usual margin of error.

None of the week’s new releases will open at #1; we could see a three-way battle between Tyler, The Creator (for a second week), DJ Khaled and Billie Eilish.

YG (Def Jam) 33-38k total activity, 5-8k album
Moneybagg Yo (Interscope) 28-32k, 1-2k
Aladdin (Walt Disney) 13-17k, 8-11k

Have a peaceful holiday weeknd. To cite an old blessing, may the meat in your barbecue be untainted.

[jtd Thee Stallion]

Damn YG

[Naos]

I know Stray Cats probably won't be too high, but I hope they'll at least be Top 50 on the sales chart.

[Choco]

Here for Billie going back to #1. Still loving her album.

[areyoureadytojump]

The new BB200 isn't out, but HITS is already posting the Top 20 for the 6/8 chart.

[iHype.]

Lol the #1 in pure sales is 15K~ this week. A new record, right?

The top 10 has been weak/below average the past few months. The rest of the chart is pulling normal #'s though.
We need a few huge names to drop.

I don't know how getting over 120,000 units in the first week isn't a "big name", but okay.

It was a joke

[korbel16]

A good album + a hit = longevity usually. Billie has great ratings on her album + bad guy keeps rising on the charts. Good for her

[HolidayGuy]

If that estimate holds for the top seller, that should be a new Nielsen-era record low for the top seller. I think it's currently around 19K?

[moonlite]

The crazy thing is that if Bille does 55k-60k, she'd be doing 10k-12k more than Ariana was in her 9th week (47k). I wonder if she can surpass tun by the end of the year.

[gabe]

real question is who the fuck is still listening to drake's album

[Enigma.]

Billie and Ariana are doing amazingly well still!

CHART STORY: EILISH ENDURES

Billie Eilish has returned to the throne. Her acclaimed Darkroom/Interscope debut jumps #3-1 this week, tacking 59k onto her total. And the biggest bow belongs to another Interscope act, as Moneybagg Yo’s 43VA HEARTLESS (N-Less/Interscope) arrives at #4.

The same week summer music flick Rocketman gets its release, Elton John’s greatest hits set Diamonds (Island) sees an early boost. The album rises #40-27, but you can expect this thing to take an even greater leap following a full week in theaters.

[Baby Yoda Hot100Fan]

It look likely that the 2019 Aladdin Soundtrack could surpass A Star is Born's all-time for pure sales for a #1 in Top Album Sales.

I like Drake but I don't think I've played any Scorpion songs in months tbh.

Good to see Billie back at #1. Now if only stars aligned for "bad guy" to go #1 too...

[Naos]

So the Top 10 on sales look pathetic this week.

1. Aladdin (2019) Soundtrack - 18,000
2. NCT 127 - 15,000
3. Billie Eilish - 11,000
4. BTS - 10,000
5. Rocketman Soundtrack - 8,700
6. Beast Coast - 7,300
7. Stray Cats - 6,800
8. Tyler, The Creator - 6,700
9. Sting - 6,500
10. Lizzo - 6,000

I don't know how getting over 120,000 units in the first week isn't a "big name", but okay. 

HDD early estimates:
Thomas Rhett (Valory/BMLG) 60-70k total activity, 40-45k album
Miley Cyrus (RCA) 30-35k, 12-15k
