Slipknot Rages With ‘Rag’
Slipknot’s new single, “The Chapeltown Rag,” debuts atop Hot Hard Rock
Songs, marking the metal veterans’ first entry and No. 1 on the chart (which began in June 2020).
“Rag” arrives with 1.7 million streams and 4,100 downloads sold in the week ending Nov. 11, according to MRC Data, following its Nov. 5 release. The latter metric sparks the track’s entrance atop Hard Rock Digital Song Sales, where it is the band’s fifth chart-topper and first since “Unsainted” in 2019.
The new song also starts at No. 35 on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart. It’s the group’s 19th entry, dating to its first in 2000.
“Rag” is the lead single from Slipknot’s forthcoming seventh studio album.
The band’s last release, We Are Not Your Kind, debuted as its third No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in August 2019 and has earned 503,000 equivalent album units.
Los Dos Carnales’ “Yo Soy Rico” takes over atop Regional Mexican Airplay as it rises 3-1, gifting the Quezada brothers (above) their second leader. The song reaches
No. 1 with 9.6 million in audience impressions, up 49%, earned in the United States during the week ending Nov. 14, according to MRC Data. “‘Yo Soy Rico’ has a special space in our repertoire,” says Imanol Quezada. “It’s a song that speaks about human prosperity, of how fortunate we are to have our family.”
“Rico” concurrently jumps 10-2 on the overall Latin Airplay chart — the first top 10 there for the duo.
Elsewhere on the Latin charts: On Tropical Airplay, Marc Anthony’s “Mala” debuts at No. 5 with only three days of airplay (3.5 million audience impressions) after its release on Nov. 12. The arrival is his 53rd career top 10, the second-most after Victor Manuelle’s 62.
