TOP 50 ALBUMS
AT MIDYEAR 2022

Disney’s Encanto soundtrack dominated the first few months of the year—until the arrival of Rimas’ Bad Bunny, whose Un Verano Sin Ti kept closing the gap and is now on the verge of taking over the #1 slot on the Top 50. Compare the most recent YTD chart with the one below, which encompasses the first half of the year, and you’ll get the picture. As for volume, top label group Interscope Geffen A&M once again led the way with 12 entries.

No wonder Rimas founder Noah Assad, main mouse Ken Bunt and IGA ruler John Janick are smiling.
