IS IT CHRISTMAS YET?
Our answer to this item's titular question remains in the negative, but you wouldn't know it from the iTunes album chart, which finds RCA's Pentatonix at #1 with their current Yuletide album, A Pentatonix Christmas, and a slew of seasonal sets sledding across the leaderboard, with sale pricing as the wind at their backs. PTX's prior chart-dominating That's Christmas to Me sits at #15 and #22 in standard and Deluxe versions, respectively. The group's version of "Hallelujah" from the new holiday collection is #15 on the singles side.
Also bringing early Xmas cheer for $7.99 a pop are Jordan Smith (#8), Michael Bublé (#9) and The Essential Now That's What I Call Christmas (#10), among countless others, including but not limited to Leslie Odom, Jr., Brett Eldredge, Kacey Musgraves and the perennially festive Mariah Carey.
In other iTunes news, Interscope has three of the Top Five and four of the Top Six singles with #1 Machine Gun Kelly & Camila Cabello, #4 Rae Sremmurd, #5 Lady Gaga and #6 Maroon 5.
In a somewhat related story, it is possible to make a Christmas tree out of pot, but it makes the presents smell pretty dank.
