TOP 20: VULTURES
SWOOP IN

Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign will debut at #1 with Vultures 1 (YZY), the first of three releases scheduled for the spring as ¥$. Vultures II and III are currently slated for 3/8 and 4/5, respectively. Meanwhile, USHER’s COMING HOME (mega/gamma.) is projected to open at #3 following his Super Bowl halftime performance. Confessions, the R&B star’s 2004 LaFace release, vaults into the Top 20. Noah Kahan’s Stick Season (Mercury/Republic) gets a major boost from its Forever edition, which showcases eight duets. And the late Toby Keith's hits anthology is showing greater longevity than is typical for a posthumous chart appearance.

Now, if you’ll excuse us, happy hour awaits.
