Ties No. 1
Mark
James Fortune (above)
notches his record-tying
sixth Gospel Airplay
No. 1 as “I Am” (featuring
Deborah Carolina)
ascends 3-1. Fortune
matches Kirk Franklin
and Tamela Mann for
the most leaders, dating
to the chart’s 2005 in-
ception. Fortune scores
his first No. 1 since 2014,
when “Live Through It,”
with his longtime back-
ing choir FIYA, ruled for
a week in May. Carolina
tops Gospel Airplay with
her first Billboard chart
entry.
On the airplay-,
streaming- and sales-
based Hot Gospel Songs
chart, “I Am” reaches the
top five (6-5).
Plus, Zach Williams’
Rescue Story debuts at
No. 2 on Top Christian
Albums, tying his best
career rank, as the
set starts with 7,000
equivalent album units
(5,000 in album sales),
according to Nielsen
Music. His prior LP,
Chain Breaker, peaked
at No. 2 in March 2018.
