A COLE-POWERED
TOP 15

J. Cole will easily top both our SPS and album charts next week. 4 Your Eyez Only will open with the year’s third biggest debut, behind only Drake (1.04m) and Beyoncé (653k). A Pentatonix Christmas and That’s Christmas To Me will both chart in the Top 5 on our SPS chart. PTX numbers are projected without adding any lift from tomorrow night’s television special. We will update as warranted on Thursday.
