Gunna’s DS4EVER (Young Stone Life/300), #10 at iTunes, is the top new arrival at Apple Music. It’s #1 on the albums side, with 12 of its tracks in the Top 15 at Apple Music.
TikTok sensation and former American Idol contestant Lauren Spencer-Smith opens in the Top 10 on both sides: Her Wednesday release, “Fingers Crossed,” is #2 in sales and #8 in streams.
