TOP 50: A BIG WIN FOR DRAKE & 21 SAVAGE'S LOSS

Drake & 21 Savage earn the third-biggest bow of the year with Her Loss (OVO/Republic), which opens at #1 on the HITS Top 50 with 411k. The joint album produced one of the biggest streaming weeks ever with around 500m. Her Loss gives Drake his second chart-topper of 2022, following his seventh studio album, Honestly, Nevermind, which dropped in June.

Moving to #2 is Taylor Swift's Midnights (Republic); it earns a whopping 302k in its third week. Tay's 10th LP has already crossed 2.2m units in total activity, making it the year's second-biggest album, trailing only Bad Bunny's Un Verano Sin Ti.

Quality Control/Motown's Lil Baby continues his strong performance at DSPs as It's Only Me posts 62k in its fourth week, good for #3. 88rising/ Warner's Joji opens at #4 with SMITHEREENS, debuting with 57k.

Notable gainers include Elton John's Diamonds (Island), which re-enters at #14 due to a Roblox collaboration, and Luke Combs, whose Growin' Up soars to #24 following multiple wins at the CMAs.
