TOP 20: SO NICE THEY NAMED IT TWICE

We the Best/Epic’s latest DJ Khaled project, the star-studded Khaled Khaled, will bow at #1 on Friday’s HITS Top 50. Pop Smoke’s Shoot for the Stars Aim for the Moon (Victor Victor/Republic) becomes only the second album this year to cross 1b in combined audio/video streams. Morgan Wallen’s January release, Dangerous: The Double Album (Big Loud/Republic), was the first; it now sits at nearly 2b YTD. Valory/BMLG’s Thomas Rhett looks like he will finish the week in the Top 10.

In post-pandemic news, once everything opens again, how will you tell people you don't want to go to their thing?
