TOP 15: PEPPERS
HEAT UP (UPDATE)

Red Hot Chili Peppers pose a significant threat to Drake holding an eighth consecutive #1 spot on the HITS Sales Plus Streaming (SPS) chart. The Chilis will certainly be #1 on this week’s Album Sales chart, beating out second place by more than 3-1. Radiohead re-enters the top 15 on our sales chart, thanks to this week’s physical release.
