TOP 50: A SWEET REPEAT AND REPUBLIC RULE

Island's Sabrina Carpenter logs a second consecutive week at #1 on the HITS Top 50 with Short n' Sweet. Carpenter's album moves 158k units in week two following the year's third-biggest debut last week (362k). Short n' Sweet has already crossed 1m in total activity due to pre-release action from smash singles "Espresso" and "Please Please Please."

Top debuts belong to HYBE/Geffen's LE SSERAFIM (#7) and Opium/ Interscope's Destroy Lonely (#10).

Streeting this week are new projects from RCA's Rex Orange County, Atlantic's Fred Again.., Columbia's Jessie Murph, Universal Latino's Jhayco, Def Jam/Virgin's LL COOL J, Island's SleazyWorld Go, Machine/Republic's G Herbo and MCA Nashville's George Strait.
