Though listed among Britney Spears‘ most critically acclaimed projects, her 9th LP – 2016’s ‘Glory’ – is her worst selling and only studio album to date to lack a certification from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

However, renewed interest in the ‘Make Me’-led set may be making a change to its criminally underrated story.

It’s been over 25 years since Madonna‘s ‘Take A Bow’-housing project ‘Bedtime Stories’ took its final bow on the Billboard 200, but reawakened interest on the real time iTunes sales chart could help the LP return for an encore performance.

Is quarantining driving people to revisit the golden jams of yesteryear?

It would seem so as just a day after Mariah Carey‘s ‘E=MC²’ topped iTunes sales charts over a decade after its release (as we reported here), Janet Jackson‘s breakthrough LP – ‘Control’ – has broken into the tally’s top 5.

It may have taken a while, but the ‘Let’s Wait Awhile’-housing project has been given another wind.

With a catalogue as colossal as Mariah Carey‘s, it’s become somewhat common for the diva’s material to strut its way back up the charts.

Much like her single, ‘Underdog,’ before it, Alicia Keys‘ new song – ‘Good Job’ – has become an anthem of sorts for essential workers during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

Also like its predecessor (as we reported here), ‘Good Job’ is doing a pretty good job on iTunes – dominating the real-time sales tally after Keys unveiling a stunning live performance of the tune on CNN’s Anderson Cooper-hosted ‘Town Hall’ Thursday (April 23).

John Legend‘s been riding high on digital sales charts thanks to his latest duet with chart-topping Country star Kane Brown.

The duo, who joined forces for Brown’s March 27-released single, ‘Last Time I Say Sorry’ (as we reported here), gave the song its first live treatment thanks to a virtual performance for the star-studded TV special ‘ACM Presents: Our Country’ (April 5).

Filling out a ‘who’s who’ of big names in Country including the likes of Shania Twain, Keith Urban, Carrie Underwood, Brad Paisley, Blake Shelton, and many more, Legend and Brown flexed their vocal chops from the comfort of their respective homes – much to the delight of their fans.

Just hours after the death of Bill Withers was announced Friday (April 3), fans of the legendary singer have turned to digital download and streaming platforms for consolation.

Albeit a common response to reports of the passing of a beloved musician, Withers’ catalog – unlike some – is seeing multiple entries dominate real-time iTunes charts with hits that are older than most of the acts he’s unseating.

Besting the likes of Drake, The Weeknd, Dua Lipa, and a host of other current hitmakers, look inside for more:

Though earning no shortage of critical acclaim upon its January 9 release, Alicia Keys‘ ‘Underdog’ – the second single from her long-awaited seventh studio album, ‘A.L.I.C.I.A.’ – was commercially panned.

Struggling to a #93 peak on the Hot 100, the Johnny McDaid-produced cut – which boasts chart-topper Ed Sheeran among its list of songwriters – seemed poise to suffer the same fate as its Miguel-assisted predecessor, ‘Show Me Love’ (which peaked at #90).

In an ironic twist of fate, ‘Underdog’s chart story could be set to reverse.  Response to the global coronavirus pandemic, the very reason the release date of the song’s parent project was postponed (click here to read more), is giving it an unexpected second wind.
