Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl performance echoes across the charts

NPR  

Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl performance echoes across the charts toggle caption Gregory Shamus/Getty Images Last week, many albums and songs experienced a "Grammy bump" — a boost in sales, airplay and/or streaming that fed off exposure from the Grammy Awards on Feb. 2. Kendrick Lamar, who headlined the halftime show at the Super Bowl on Feb. 9, has three albums in this week's top 10: Last fall's GNX climbs from No. Kendrick Lamar is far from the first artist to post three albums in the top 10 simultaneously: In fact, as the Eras Tour coincided with the release of several "Taylor's Version" editions of old records, Taylor Swift posted five albums in the top 10 simultaneously in late 2023 — and five titles by Prince charted in the top 10 at the same time in the aftermath of the icon's death in 2016. Sponsor Message Kendrick Lamar isn't the only Super Bowl veteran to make a mark in this week's top 10.
