iTunes charts

iTUNES CHARTS: A compare-and-contrast between this Friday snapshot and the singles chart immediately below documenting the most recent sales week reveals certain patterns. Foremost among them is RCA’s remarkable surge, with P!nk’s latest single quickly hitting the top of the iTunes chart and Justin Timberlake holding both the #2 and #5 slots, while Pitbull holds down #7. So we can expect these four tracks to make an even stronger showing on the next overall weekly sales chart. Meanwhile, The 20/20 Experience and the reinvigorated The Truth About Love win this morning’s gold and bronze medals, with young country sensation Kacey Musgraves (Mercury Nashville) taking the silver. The $14.99 deluxe version of Lil Wayne’s latest, hitting next Tuesday on Young Money/Cash Money/Universal, is the top preorder, indicating that Weezy is very much alive, so to speak. And how high will Interscope’s breaking Imagine Dragons album rise? Finally, nearly three months into 2013, the biz is showing some signs of life. (3/22a)
