The instant success that A Star Is Born received definitely seemed to stir some controversy within Twenty One Pilots’ fan base. The soundtrack itself did hit #1 on the Billboard 200. They’re pretty sure it’ll climb next week as well, but we’ll have to keep an eye out for that. Billboard predicted “Shallow” to reach number one this week, but it currently stands at #5. “Shallow” continues to sit at #1 on the iTunes charts with various other songs from the film sitting at #2, #7, #13, and so on. The exception is the song “Shallow”, which dropped just a few days prior.

However, A Star Is Born waited to release all their music until the day of the film entered in theaters. Twenty One Pilots released their singles for their new album back in August to help hype the release. Both albums were released on the same day, and both climbed straight to the top two spots on the chart.įans of Gaga and Pilots foresaw this issue with the similar release date and took to social media to voice their opinions, hyping the situation up into what they now call the chart ‘battle’.Īfter almost two weeks of being released, A Star Is Born continues to take the #1 and #2 spots while Trench has already sunk down to #10 (the Greatest Showman soundtrack has even surpassed it) on the iTunes album chart. A chart battle between Twenty One Pilots’ new album, Trench, and Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper’s soundtrack for their film, A Star Is Born, took place across social media platforms and various top 100 charts. Whether you are an active Twitter user, movie goer, or music listener, you’ve probably heard about the music charts drama recently.
