A FETCHING TOP 20

Morgan Wallen’s One Thing at a Time (Big Loud/Mercury/Republic) may make an unexpected return to #1 on Friday’s HITS Top 50, but Alamo’s Rod Wave is within striking distance.

The week’s top new entry is Ed Sheeran’s Autumn Variations (Atlantic).

Meanwhile, Taylor Swift could account for seven of the Top 20 albums—five of them from Republic—as she fights with the right to encourage her fans to vote.

Now, if you’ll excuse us, it’s October 3rd and that means we're watching Mean Girls on a loop.
