April 11, 20188 yr Drake closing the gap to Calvin, looks like they'll likely swap over by Friday (or at least be very close to doing so). Surprised that the gap between Lil Dicky and Calvin hasn't closed at all today, since Calvin's iTunes advantage looks a lot bigger than Dicky's Spotify advantage. At least Calvin is ahead on both of them now so he should almost certainly overtake next week, even if he is still stuck behind Drake.

It is indeed looking mighty close this week - Drake looking slight favourite at this point although it is almost looking too close to call.
April 11, 20188 yr i'm most surprised at the courteneers, the original album is one of those albums that debuts top 10, disappears next week, and it's far from a classic, it's not like the stone roses or anything, amazed they have more than 10,000 fans that would buy this
April 11, 20188 yr Brilliant from Kylie. Golden going to clear 45k Yep, really happy for her but I fear the fall is going to be brutal next week :(
April 11, 20188 yr Yep, really happy for her but I fear the fall is going to be brutal next week :( Even if sales dip 100%, with 4.5k you can still manage a top 15 position, sometimes even top 10!!!
April 11, 20188 yr Even if sales dip 100%, with 4.5k you can still manage a top 15 position, sometimes even top 10!!! and she has 1,000 sales already from the signed cassette release
April 11, 20188 yr Yep, really happy for her but I fear the fall is going to be brutal next week :( I don't think the fall will be that brutal. She's selling 3k+ a day at the moment, even if that decreases to 1.5k/day next week, she'll still get around 11k which would have put her at no 5 on last weeks chart. Looking at the competition, she'll probably be no 4/5 with Greatest Showman, George Ezra, Manic Street Preachers, and possibly Ed Sheeran ahead of her.
April 11, 20188 yr Looks like one of the Weeknd tracks will drop out of the chart from the Top 20 then eek.
April 11, 20188 yr Gonna be so close... If Drake would have release like everyone else on a Friday he would got it, it will be super close. Super! I hope his AM numbers are bigger than Spotify, he did nicely yesterday. I want Drake for 1 week and than Dua can take it for a long time it seems.
April 11, 20188 yr Looks like one of the Weeknd tracks will drop out of the chart from the Top 20 then eek. Try Me will drop out from 17 yet Wasted Times will remain comfortably in the top 40, quite annoying really. I still don't agree with the OCC's artist/album cap anyway, I think they could have come up with a better solution. Like taking away a certain number of streaming points from every track on an album to compensate for listens of the entire album. Meaning Try Me would've had a run more like 30-44-65-88-OUT and not 17-OUT, and Pray For Me would not artificially drop out for a single week only to come back the week after (which reminds me of another rule which led to Eminem having a 2-7-21-OUT-30 type run a few years back).
April 11, 20188 yr Even though sales will be close, I think Lil Dicky has a big enough lead to say he'll comfortably #1 this week.
April 11, 20188 yr Even though sales will be close, I think Lil Dicky has a big enough lead to say he'll comfortably #1 this week. Not if you extrapolate yesterday's Sales and factor in the extra streams it will be far from comfortable (Drake narrowed gap by nearly 2k yesterday and is only 3.8k behind).
April 11, 20188 yr BMG/Kylie are really going for getting ‘Dancing’ in the Top 40 this week - they have now launched a competition for 20 people who download the remix EP for 99p to win a date with her. Wish they had got it onto a streaming playlist and made the remixes 59p on iTunes too this week! Go Kylie :cheer:
April 11, 20188 yr Not if you extrapolate yesterday's Sales and factor in the extra streams it will be far from comfortable (Drake narrowed gap by nearly 2k yesterday and is only 3.8k behind). Yeah, I think Drake will be number 1 now.

April 11, 20188 yr I desperately want 'Dancing' to get its top 40 position... but... blimey. I'm speechless at that.
