I really think Jesy could struggle for even Top 75 without a major label and any support.

Post Malone's career is really deep-diving right now

A couple of other newies on Apple:

 

144. Metallica - 72 Seasons

195. Jorja Smith - Try Me

 

Apple Music

 

8 Lewis Capaldi wish you the best

133 jorja smith try me

166 Joel Cory do u want me baby

184 ice spice Princess, Diana

 

^ also David Kushner #35 and Post Malone #72

Aw at the Jack Black momentum stalling a bit now - I imagine it'll rise more over the weekend though? (I haven't heard it yet but I support it becoming a big hit on principle alone tbh)

 

Metallica's album landing a couple of songs in the Apple top 200 :cheeseblock: interested to see if any will crack Spotify tomorrow.

 

New release update:

 

6 Lewis Capaldi

25 David Kushner (who decided we needed to give him another hit...)

55 Post Malone

102 Jorja Smith

104 Joel Corry/Billen Ted/Elphi

112 Metallica - 72 Seasons (came out a couple of weeks ago but new album release)

138 Ice Spice/Nicki Minaj

156 Strandz (quite surprised to see him impacting straight away with another new song as well, 'Us Against The World' was radiating one hit wonder energy for me but maybe not)

159 Metallica - Shadows Follow

You've been saying this about him constantly for years at this point ddd

I work in comms and know that key messages need to be repeated x

 

I thought Metallica would do better...

Insane start for David Kushner, never in my life saw it coming but I do like the song. I wonder how it will do on Spotify without support.

Never heard of him before

Guess hes a tiktoker

 

Has he charted before?

he had a couple of minor hits last year

Other than their 25m+ monthly listeners on Spotify!

I'd imagine a good portion of Metallica's fanbase these days are younger than the band's existence too based on the anecdotal evidence of my brother and his friends being big fans haha

Other than their 25m+ monthly listeners on Spotify!

that will listen to old stuff but not the new album

I think maybe "Master Of Puppets" being featured on Stranger Things may have introduced them to a new audience. Really good to see them thriving with this album

You could say the same about lots of people who bought their physicals albums in the past.

3) Lewis Capaldi

15) David Kushner

47) Post Malone

All jokes aside, I think it will struggle for Top 200. It had a dreadful placement on NMF and I don’t foresee any further playlist support for it.

I think Jesy is trolling with that song anywhere tbf

What could a major have given her that she hasn’t done herself? She’s created a high budget video, got prime time TV promo… I guess a major could have influenced a better streaming strategy but I feel major or indie the results would be similar.
