This Week In Music: 1/28/17

Hello everyone and welcome to this week in music!

Charts-

Julia Michales is gaining ground with her debut single, Issues. The very influential songwriter has worked with everyone from Demi Lovato to Fifth Harmony, and she finally decided to test her vocals in a song that's gotten mixed reviews.

Ariana Scored a #1 with Side to Sidd ft. Nicki Minaj on the at40 this week. Let's see how long it can hold.

On the billboard side of things, Atlanta rap trio Migos scored there first number one With Bad and Boujee ft. Lil Uzi Vert. As someone who has followed Migos since 2014, this has been a very long journey for them and they finally hit the top spot. Ed Sheeran, however, fell out of the top spot. Shape Of You almost instantly became a hit, and it was overtaken by Migos this week.

In terms of ITunes, Zayn/Taylor Swift - I Dont Wanna Live Forever is now at the top of the charts.
Album Releases-

Obviously the biggest release of the week was Culture from Migos. Currently number one on iTunes. We also had Train releasing a girl a bottle a boat. The rising Kehlani came out with SweetSexySavage. Kenny Chesney released his new album, The Devil Don't Sleep.

Song releases-

Major Lazer had the headliner of song releases, with Run Up ft. PARTYNEXTDOOR and Nicki Minaj. The other notable release was Martin Garrix/Dua Lipa - Scared To Be Lonely.

From the author-

So I fell in love with Sage The Gemini - Now and Later this week. It's weirdly amazing, and it's a candy song, who doesn't love candy? Sage is very clever with his lyrics and has a nice voice for rapping. It also has a nice meaning, which it's pretty much a love song. Probably my number one listen for this week.

I know he gets a lot of hate, but Lil Yachty is different. He has a different style of rap that he brings. It's a lot more upbeat and his voice is unlike anything we've heard before. It's almost like Eminem in how different it is.

Well that wraps up the first edition of this week in music. Comment if you have any suggestions!
