CHART BEAT
X1’s Pre-
Release
‘Leap’
K-pop boy band X1 (above)
bounds 11-2 on Emerging
Artists despite not having
released any music yet. The
group’s rise can be credited
to social media activity as it
surges 6-2 on the Social 50,
boosted by anticipation for
X1’s debut LP, Emergency:
Quantum Leap, due Aug. 27.
Meanwhile, Saweetie
logs her second week at
No. 1 on Emerging Artists
as the rapper’s “My Type”
hits a new Billboard
Hot 100 high (No. 33).
Plus, half•alive enters
Emerging Artists at No. 16
as its debut LP, Now,
Not Yet, bows at No. 1
on Heatseekers Albums
and No. 15 on Alternative
Albums (5,000 equivalent
album units; 3,000 in
traditional album sales,
according to Nielsen Music).
The group’s breakout single,
“Still Feel.,” reached No. 7
on Alternative Songs and
No. 21 on Hot Rock Songs
in July. —Xander Zellner
‘POST MALONE’
JOINS POST MALONE
“Post Malone” by Sam
Feldt (featuring RANI)
debuts at No. 37 on the
Mainstream Top 40
airplay chart as Post
Malone (above) rises
10-8 with “Goodbyes”
(featuring Yo u n g
Thug). Feldt’s song
declares: “Tonight,
we go all night long/
We party like Post
Malone!” The double-up
echoes Taylor Swift’s
“Tim McGraw,” which
entered Hot Country
Songs on July 1, 2006,
as McGraw’s “When
the Stars Go Blue”
ranked at No. 4, and The
Carefrees’ “We Love
You Beatles,” which hit
No. 39 on the Billboard
Hot 100 in April 1964
concurrent with 14
entries by The Beatles.
