Weekly Chart (1/12/20)

Weekly charts make their return with domination from Selena Gomez's new album, Rare.

After nearly 9 months of no charts, the weekly charts have made their return for the new year of 2020 (d̶e̶s̶p̶i̶t̶e̶ ̶i̶t̶ ̶b̶e̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶t̶w̶o̶ ̶w̶e̶e̶k̶s̶ ̶i̶n̶t̶o̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶n̶e̶w̶ ̶y̶e̶a̶r̶) A lot of data is missing from the months lost, but new year, new charts!

For the week of January 12th, Selena Gomez has completed destroyed the chart with her new album, Rare, with every track minus the lead single "Lose You to Love Me" (which would've probably peaked around #2 due to Dua Lipa's monster smash hit "Don't Start Now" blocking it), as I didn't stream it too much this week, so it didn't manage to get back where she deserved. Selena takes EIGHT spots out of the Top 10 with "People You Know" (First #1 of the new year/decade!), "Vulnerable" (#2), "Dance Again" (#3), "Rare" (#4), "Kinda Crazy" (#6), "Cut You Off" (#8), "A Sweeter Place" (#9) and "Crowded Room" (#10) taking up those spots while tracks "Look At Her Now" (what would've been a previous #1), "Let Me Get Me", "Ring", and "Fun" all sitting in the Top 20! This brings Selena's total entries to thirteen! Also in the top 10 is Halsey's brand new angry yeehaw song "You should be sad" which impressively debuts at #5 despite being in the midst of the chaos of Rare, which is her second highest entry after "Nightmare" peaked #3! (w̶h̶i̶c̶h̶ ̶i̶t̶ ̶w̶o̶u̶l̶d̶ ̶b̶e̶ ̶h̶e̶r̶ ̶t̶h̶i̶r̶d̶ ̶o̶r̶ ̶f̶o̶u̶r̶t̶h̶ ̶i̶f̶ ̶I̶ ̶j̶u̶s̶t̶.̶.̶.̶ ̶k̶e̶p̶t̶ ̶u̶p̶ ̶w̶i̶t̶h̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶c̶h̶a̶r̶t̶s̶). Halsey (or should I say YeeHalsey (I'm so sorry), currently has four songs charting this week in anticipation of her new album Manic, dropping next week (y̶e̶e̶h̶a̶w̶ ̶m̶o̶r̶e̶ ̶a̶l̶b̶u̶m̶ ̶c̶h̶a̶o̶s̶) "Graveyard" is sitting at #13, "Finally // beautiful stranger" at #27 and "clementine" at #31. The only other artist in the Top 10, as previously mentioned is Dua Lipa with her huge hit, "Don't Start Now" (w̶h̶i̶c̶h̶ ̶w̶o̶u̶l̶d̶'̶v̶e̶ ̶b̶e̶e̶n̶ ̶a̶ ̶m̶u̶l̶t̶i̶w̶e̶e̶k̶ ̶#̶1̶ ̶s̶m̶a̶s̶h̶ ̶(̶(̶f̶i̶n̶i̶s̶h̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶s̶e̶n̶t̶e̶n̶c̶e̶)̶)̶ ̶s̶i̶n̶c̶e̶ ̶I̶ ̶s̶t̶i̶l̶l̶ ̶c̶a̶n̶n̶o̶t̶ ̶s̶t̶o̶p̶ ̶l̶i̶s̶t̶e̶n̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶i̶t̶.̶ ̶W̶e̶ ̶l̶o̶v̶e̶ ̶s̶t̶a̶b̶i̶l̶i̶t̶y̶!̶) sitting at #7. She also has one more song in the Top 50, the title track off her upcoming highly anticipated album Future Nostalgia, is sitting at #14. 

Other new entries this week includes brand new song from Normani and Megan Thee Stallion "Diamonds", off the Birds of Prey soundtrack. It debuts #18 this week, while "The Story" from Conan Gray, whom just announced his debut studio album Kid Krow slated for a March 20th release date! The song debuts #23. It's also his 3rd entry after "Crush Culture" and "The King"!

See y'all next week for the chart disaster that'll be Manic from Y̶e̶e̶Halsey!
