Vibe debut: Sam Smith

BATTERIES NOT INCLUDED: Debuting in our Vibe Raters roundup this week is Capitol's soul-singing wonder Sam Smith. The British vocalist, as you well know, killed it on SNL and truly moved the needle, enjoying a retail windfall for both his album and single "Stay With Me." The track is enjoying Hot AC and Triple A love, and Smith will further captivate Americans when he hits Coachella and other U.S. spots this month. See our Editor in Chief Lenny Beer's "Things That Make Us Go Hmmm" for further thoughts on this emerging star. In other Vibe news, Smith's bandmates 5 Seconds of Summer ascend to #1 and Epic's KONGOS move up to #4. Check out the whole batch here. (4/3p)
