NEW RELEASES: WHERE THE BATTLE IS

At this point it appears that Ed Sheeran will repeat at #1 in his second week, and Beyoncé's inspired-by set, Lion King: The Gift, will battle a resurgent Billie Eilish—now approaching her 17th week—for the #2 spot. As for Disney’s actual Lion King soundtrack, so far the film's explosive box office has not translated into mega-streams and/or sales, but we'll keep a close eye on the situation. That said, Bey's Gift is #1 at iTunes and the official ST is #4.

Beyoncé - Lion King: The Gift (Parkwood/Columbia) 50-70k total activity, 13-18k album
The Lion King (Walt Disney) 17-20k, 11-14k
Nas (Mass Appeal/Def Jam) 17-20k, 5-7k
