By FYI Staff

Young Thug scores his first chart-topping album as So Much Fun debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart with 8,000 total consumption units and scoring the highest audio-on-demand stream total for the week. It is the first time he has reached the top ten as a solo artist, previously peaking at No. 5 on Super Slimey, his 2017 collaboration with Future.


Ed Sheeran’s No. 6 Collaborations Project remains at 2, Billie Eilish’s When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go stays at 3, and Shawn Mendes’ self-titled album holds at 4. Mendes’ duet with Camila Cabello on Senorita jumps to No. 1 on the Digital Songs chart, his second chart-topping song and her first digital No. 1.

Quality Control’s Quality Control: Control the Streets, Vol. 2 debuts at 5, surpassing the No. 17 peak of Volume 1 in December 2017.

Last week’s number one album, Slipknot’s We Are Not Your Kind drops to No. 6 but once again is the week’s top seller.

Other debuts in the top 50 include Illenium’s Ascend, at 12; Killswitch Engage’s Atonement, at 17; and A$AP Ferg’s Floor Seats, at 38.

Despite falling out of the No. 1 spot on the Digital Songs chart, Lil Nas X’s Old Town Road spends its 20th straight week at the top of the Streaming Songs chart.

See Who Was Nominated — and Who Was Passed Over — in Oscars’ 2025 Music Categories

This is the fifth year in a row that one or more non-English language songs has been nominated for best original song.

Diane Warren received her 16th Oscar nomination for best original song on Thursday (Jan. 23) — a tally equaled by only three other songwriters in the 91-year history of the category. Sammy Cahn leads with 26 nods, followed by Johnny Mercer with 18 and Paul Francis Webster, also with 16. Warren was nominated this year this year for “The Journey,” sung by H.E.R. in The Six Triple Eight.

Moreover, this is the eighth year in a row Warren has been nominated, which enables her to tie Cahn for the longest continuous streak of nominations in this category. Cahn was nominated eight years running from 1954 to 1961.
