This Week In Music 2/5/17

Welcome all to the second edition of this week in music!

Charts-

Marian Hill has gained streams after being featured in a commercial for Apple AirPods. Their song Down was playing on the commercial. It is currently the number 8 downloaded song on iTunes. It's nice to see music in the electronic genre getting noticed.

Maroon 5 has found its way to the top of the at40 with Kendrick Lamar and Don't Wanna Know. Maroon 5 is not showing any signs of slowing down it's music, going to a more mainstream sound. I wonder if a new album is expected anytime soon.

Bad and Boujee and Shape Of You refuse to let go holding on to the 1 and 2 spots, respectively, on the billboard hot 100. Luke Bryan - Fast is the highest entrant at #81.

Album releases-

Big Sean dropped I Decided on Friday, a long awaited follow up to his 2015 album, Dark Sky Paradise. It has features like Jhene Aiko, Migos, and Eminem. In broadway news, the soundtrack for Dear Evan Hansen was also released.

Song releases-

Imagine Dragons are back with their new song Believer. Rising country star Sam Hunt also came back with Body Like A Back Road. Yet another comeback from Zac Brown Band releasing My Old Man. Ariana Grande and John Legend collaborated for the lead song off of Beauty and the Beast, titled the movie.

From The Author- 

What do you guys think is gonna happen on the super bowl? Is Lady Gaga really gonna perform on the roof? She has brought it before, and it should be no different for the super bowl. 

I am a huge Big Sean fan and have been listening to his album nonstop since it came out. My personal favorite song on the album is Moves. What about the rest of you?



That's all for this week folks!!
