FLIPOVER FRIDAY: NEW ARRIVALS AT iTUNES AND APPLE MUSIC
It’s a rare flipover Friday when Apple Music has nearly as many debuts as iTunes and today is indeed such a day. Led by Travis Scott’s ASTROWORLD (Grand Hustle/Epic) on both charts, Apple Music has five newcomers in the Top 10 to iTunes’ seven.
While ASTROWORLD, which Scott announced only a week ago, sits at #1, Mac Miller's Swimming (Warner Bros.) follows at #2 on iTunes and #4 on Apple Music. YG's STAY DANGEROUS (Def Jam) has lapped Miller at Apple Music, it’s #3, and is right behind him on iTunes at #3.
Apple Music’s Top 10 also includes Moneybagg Yo’s mixtape Bet on Me (N-Less/Interscope) at #5 and H.E.R.’s I Used to Know Her: The Prelude EP (RCA) at #8.
Back at iTunes,the H.E.R. EP is #5; Iggy Azalea's Survive the Summer EP (Island) dawns at #7; the 11th album from Lucero, Among the Ghosts (Liberty & Lament/Thirty Tigers) is #8; and Moneybagg Yo’s mixtape is #10. The self-released Living Hope from San Diego-based Christian singer Phil Wickham is right behind them.
Over on iTunes singles, Robyn’s first release since 201, the single “Missing You” (Konichiwa/Interscope), has climbed its way to #13.
