Morgan Wallen Spends 2nd Week at the Top | Scanning the Charts

Scanning the Charts – Billboard 200 & Hot 100 (1/30/21): Morgan Wallen spends a 2^nd week atop the Billboard 200 with Dangerous: The Double Album.  

SCANNING THE CHARTS is just what it says it is.  I, the quirky founder and do-it-all at The Musical Hype scans through the Billboard Charts and picks out things that catch my eye.  To reiterate what I said last week ( Morgan Wallen Debuts Big: Scanning the Charts No. 3), this column won’t be extensive, but rather short and sweet, keeping that moving.  This week, I picked out FIVE notable observations from the Billboard 200 ,  and FIVE observations from the Billboard Hot 100 , with Morgan Wallen spending a second week atop the Billboard 200 with Dangerous: The Double Album.

Billboard 200  

Morgan Wallen spends a second consecutive week atop the Billboard 200 with his sophomore album, Dangerous: The Double Album.

Why Don’t We earns the sole debut in the top 10 of the Billboard 200. The Good Times and the Bad Ones debuts at a career high no. 3.  You go boys!

Unfortunately, there still aren’t enough people listening to Zayn. His third studio album, Nobody is Listening, debuts outside of the top 40 (no. 44).  It’s an improvement upon Icarus Falls (no. 61), but that’s not saying much when his 2016 debut, Mind of Mine, started in the penthouse…

Jeff Tweedy debuts modestly at no. 89 with Love is King.

Ashnikko launches in the second half of the Billboard 200 with DemiDevil (no. 107).

Billboard Hot 100  

Olivia Rodrigo spends a second consecutive week at no. 1 on the Hot 100 with “Drivers License”. 

Ariana Grande is on the rise with the remix of “34+35” featuring Doja Cat and Megan Thee Stallion.  The record ascends from no. 11 to no. 2, definitely dimming the “Mood” of 24kGoldn and iann dior (slips to no. 3).

Juice WRLD and Young Thug debut at no. 22 with “Bad Boy”.

DaBaby launches at no. 55 with his single, “Masterpiece”.

Two country standouts – Tim McGraw and Tyler Hubbard – land at no. 76 on the Hot 100 with “Undivided”.
