ilovemusic432 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Quote The five nominees for album of the year collectively scored a 64 percent unit gain in the week ending Feb. 1. Bruno Mars, who won all six of the awards for which he was nominated, vaults from No. 10 to No. 4 with his album of the year winner 24K Magic (49,000 equivalent album units; up 89 percent, according to Nielsen Music). With a 23,000-unit rise, the album tallies the chart’s largest unit increase, granting 24K Magic the Greatest Gainer award for the week. Childish Gambino -- a performer and winner for best traditional R&B performance (for “Redbone”) -- nabs the Billboard 200’s largest percentage gain. His album Awaken, My Love! zooms 112-38 with a 122 percent lift in units (rising to 14,000 earned). Collectively, the five titles nominated for album of the year (24K Magic, Awaken, JAY-Z’s 4:44, Kendrick Lamar’s DAMN. and Lorde’s Melodrama) earned a 64 percent unit increase in the week ending Feb. 1 (rising from 71,000 to 116,000 units earned). Other Grammy-related gainers in the top 20 of the chart include Lamar's DAMN. (holding at No. 6, but up 31 percent to 38,000 units), Khalid’s American Teen (15-9 with 27,000 units; up 12 percent), SZA’s Ctrl (22-14 with 23,000 units; up 29 percent), Chris Stapleton’s From A Room: Volume 2 (55-18 with 20,000 units; up 100 percent) and the 2018 Grammy Nominees compilation (32-20 with 18,000 units; up 29 percent). P!nk sees her latest album Beautiful Trauma rise 43-22 (18,000 units; up 47 percent), Stapleton’s Traveller climbs 45-24 (17,000 units; up 49 percent), while his From A Room: Volume 1 zips 74-28 (16,000 units; up 92 percent). Grammy performer Elton John (who duetted with Miley Cyrus on his 1972 hit “Tiny Dancer”) ascends 75-36 with his newest greatest hits album Diamonds (14,000 units; up 75 percent), performer/nominee Kesha vaults 127-45 with Rainbow (12,000 units; up 102 percent) and fellow performer/nominee Logicrises 73-56 with Everybody (10,000 units; up 24 percent). Other Grammy bumps in the top 100 of the chart: JAY-Z’s 4:44 (a re-entry at No. 84 with 8,000 units; up 76 percent), Lorde’s Melodrama (152-91 with 7,000 units; up 42 percent), Mars’ Doo-Wops & Hooligans (145-92 with 7,000 units; up 36 percent) and Unorthodox Jukebox (160-96 with 7,000 units; up 43 percent) and performer and nominee DJ Khaled’s Grateful (104-97 with 7,000 units; up 10 percent). Just outside the top 100, performer and nominee Lady Gaga returns with Joanne (a re-entry at No. 101 with 7,000 units; up 126 percent).
