Many Artists Can Claim Top Album

New releases debut at the top of the singles and albums chart, in Southern California and nationally. The album is the fourth volume of the “Now That’s What I Call Music” series, which collects recent hits (this time including songs by Blink-182, Macy Gray and Hanson) in a handy package, while Sisqo’s follow-up to “The Thong Song” is the No. 1 single.
