Future replaces himself at the top of the sales and combined chart with his second debut in as many weeks. That hardly ever happens. Also debuting this week in the top 4 in sales are Little Big Town (Country), Aaron Watson (Country) and John Mayer (Pop/Rock – serial dater – subject of one of Taylor Swifts Bad Boyfriend songs).
No solo singing competitors on the charts this week, but lots on albums with other people. Niall Horan and Fifth Harmony (both from the X-Factor) are featured on NOW 61 selling at 8th and combined at 17th). Zayn (also from X-Factor) duets with Taylor Swift on the debut track of “Fifty Shades of Darker” now at 11 in sales and 10 SPS. Idol’s Carrie Underwood duets with Keith Urban on his current single from “Ripcord”- 16/25. Finally, Tori Kelly appears on the “Sing” Soundtrack at 27th in sales.
