Billboard number 1 is over, Ella has discounted her track. Didnt do this when it was Drake but Ariana sure why not

Drake's lead was probably too big for the label to consider pushing for Ella to stay high, this time it's probably more manageable for it to overtake Ariana. Hopefully it does mean Ariana's label push harder and it can go number one here instead (where we have taste 😂)

She was super close behind Drake. She didn't move when it was Harry either which was also close. But when shes up aganist a female singer she discounts her song every time. Its such weird behaviour.

I’m not sure Ella is getting up to the minute sales info and pushing the button on a reduction when she sees a female releasing a song 🤣

Oh I dunno theres rumours of a Taylor collab (no actual proof bear in mind) and we know Taylors a mastermind 😆

Guys we have an International Charts forum with Spotify and iTunes threads for the US - probably best to discuss this there!

She did it with Olivia Dean. That first week she went number one, Olivia was pipping her and she put out an Instagram message telling people to buy the song because it was so close and it was so rare to have a female country singer go number 1.

Hopefully Olivia Dean does the same tomorrow to keep RMI at #1

Come on Rein Me In hold on to #1. It’ll probably be it’s last chance.

looking at tonight's figures for Rein Me In, it's 7,451 down compared to last Wednesday so likely to be on one week of decline on Friday unless the market can save it again !

34 BTS - ARIRANG

lmao

Ari still #1. We love to see it.

Dua’s live album climbing during the week? Unusual for a physical driven release?

Makes me wonder if streams have been added to it from studio tracks.

I am still yet to find a link to purchase it before this coming Friday.

As mentioned before, there's a new 42-track live album on streaming platforms, which replaces the previous 21-track. This new version includes the studio versions of the 21 tracks that Dua performed during her concerts, minus the cover track in its original form at CDMX night two, obviously. The physical release is still planned to be this Friday.

On streaming the Dua live album also includes the studio versions of every song she performed in setlist order so I’d imagine that’ll be helping it up

Oh, so they've essentially made it a greatest hits?

That basically means we'll effectively be seeing a live album chart for a long time for the first time in ages! I can't see it selling too many physicals, she already released a live album not even two years ago and there seems to be barely any promo for this!

The album has the solo version of Levitating rather than the DaBaby duet

Basically, yes. They've made a DSPs-only greatest hits album too with her live album, lol!

I'm wondering how will be the effect on her studio albums after this, although Radical Optimism hasn't charted since its first run in 2024 and I'm not expecting that to happen anytime soon. ☠️
