Capitol’s Paul McCartney can officially celebrate his first #1 chart debut as a solo artist. With approximately 146k, Egypt Station—Macca’s 18th solo studio album—managed to edge past Eminem’s Kamikaze (Shady/Aftermath/Interscope), which finished its second week on the Top 50 Chart with 127k. Centricity’s Lauren Daigle, meanwhile, scores the second-biggest bow, as Look Up Child appears at #3 with 108k, making Steve Barnett’s week all the sweeter.
Russ’ ZOO (Russ My Way/Columbia) and $uicideboy$’ I Want to Die in New Orleans (G59/Caroline) serve as the remaining key debuts, landing at #4 and #8 with 79k and 46k, respectively.
Following the untimely death of Mac Miller, the Warner Bros. rapper/singer/producer’s latest release, Swimming, moves 65k—enough to re-enter the chart at #5. Four other sets also return; 2011 mixtape Best Day Ever can be found at #24, while 2011 debut album Blue Slide Park comes back in at #43, 2016’s Divine Feminine is #46 and 2013’s Watching Movies with the Sound Off is #50.
As for the label groups, UMG wins this week’s marketshare battle with 61% of the pie. WMG follows with 20% and SME comes in third with 17%, while the indies claim 2%.
Streeting this week are albums by Capitol Nashville’s Carrie Underwood, LVRN/Interscope’s 6LACK, Parlophone’s David Guetta and Capitol’s Tori Kelly, as well as sets from Sony Legacy’s Willie Nelson and Verve’s Tony Bennett & Diana Krall.
