TOP 20: ONE WEEK
AT A TIME (UPDATE)

Bigger-than-expected D2C figures increase our projections for both the first solo release from BTS Jimin and Fueled by Ramen’s Fall Out Boy. Jimin’s FACE EP (BIGHIT/Geffen) is now tracking to first-week activity of more than 140k, with pure album sales coming in around 115k. Fall Out Boy’s So Much (for) Stardust, with 60k+, seems
likely to land a #6 debut.

Morgan Wallen’s One Thing at a Time (Big Loud/Mercury/Republic), meanwhile, holds the top spot for a fourth week, losing only 15k vs. last week. Interscope’s Lana Del Rey will score her biggest opening since 2014’s Ultra Violence, with River House/Columbia Nashville’s Luke Combs likewise debuting in the Top 5.
