David Bowie passed away last weekend – just two days after the release of his new album, Blackstar. Sadly, he is not around to see it become number one…making it his first number one album ever. Fans have been dipping back into Bowie‘s catalog as well as they mourn the loss, as nine of them have re-entered the Billboard 200 – one of which in the top 10! Elsewhere on the charts, Bryson Tiller has peaked AGAIN, this time coming in at number 8 with 33k. It’s crazy how he’s just climbing UP the charts, so many months after releasing the album! Good for him! Check out the full top 10 on the Billboard 200 below.
Nevermind: Michael B. Jordan Isn’t Directing Bryson Tiller’s Video After All
Yesterday afternoon, Apple Music published an interview with Bryson Tiller, where he revealed that actor Michael B. Jordan would be producing the video to his song “Exchange,” off his critically-acclaimed debut album, T R A P S O U L. “He’s like the homie,” he said. “He just said he wanted to work on some stuff with me so we’re actually gonna work together to do the video for ‘Exchange.’ He’s gonna direct it.”
Michael B. Jordan Will Direct Bryson Tiller’s Video For “Exchange”
Bryson Tiller has been riding high off of the success of his debut, T R A P S O U L. The album, released in October, peaked at number 9 on the Billboard 200 this week, and has been a fan favorite since it came out. In a new interview, Pen Griffey revealed that he’s enlisted the help of none other than Michael B. Jordan to bring one of the album’s songs to life, “Exchange.” “He’s like the homie,” Tiller told Apple Music. “He reached out to me a while ago and just showing love for the music after T R A P S O U L dropped. He just said he wanted to work on some stuff with me so we’re actually gonna work together to do the video for ‘Exchange.’ He’s gonna direct it. I don’t know when we’re shooting that, though. Hopefully, in the next few months.” That should be really dope!
