Benson Boone's Comeback Single Returns To Multiple Charts At Once
Benson Boone's 'Sorry, I'm Here for Someone Else' reenters multiple U.K. charts as his album ... More American Heart begins to slip and "Beautiful Things" leads the charge. LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - FEBRUARY 02: Benson Boone performs onstage at the 67th annual GRAMMY Awards on February 02, 2025 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo byfor The Recording Academy ) Less than a month ago, Benson Boone's sophomore album American Heart debuted on charts all around the world. The set earned a lofty start on rankings in most nations, as Boone has become a certified hitmaker and one of the more exciting new names in pop music. As American Heart begins to dwindle down tallies, its lead single is enjoying a resurgence in the United Kingdom. 'Sorry, I'm Here for Someone Else' Reappears 'Sorry, I'm Here for Someone Else' returns to multiple lists in the U.K. this week, where Boone has cultivated a sizable fanbase throughout the past year or two. The track currently lives on three different charts in the country, reappearing on all but one of them. The tune, which introduced the American Heart era, lands at No. 91 on the Official Singles chart and comes in at No. 100 — last place — on the Official Singles Downloads tally. 'Sorry, I'm Here for Someone Else' Falls on the Streaming List Interestingly, 'Sorry, I'm Here for Someone Else' declines on the Official Streaming chart. While the composition rises onto several rosters, it seems that purchases may be fueling Boone's comeback, as it slips from No. 72 to No. 86 on the list of the most-streamed tracks across the U.K. Benson Boone Scores Three Simultaneous Hits 'Sorry, I'm Here for Someone Else' is one of three popular tracks by Boone that currently appear on the U.K. charts. Among the trio, it is featured on the fewest number of rankings. 'Beautiful Things,' which was released in early 2024, remains his top hit as it lifts to No. 12 on the Official Singles chart. That tune is a top 40 success on both streaming and sales rosters. 'Mystical Magical,' the second official promotional cut from American Heart, lives on the same four tallies as 'Beautiful Things.' While Boone's breakout smash is currently his biggest win on the Official Singles chart, 'Mystical Magical' leads when it comes to pure purchases. 'Beautiful Things' Remains Benson Boone's Biggest Hit 'Beautiful Things' outpaces both 'Sorry, I'm Here for Someone Else' and 'Mystical Magical' in every respect, even though it's been present on the U.K. charts for well over a year. The global hit has racked up 77 frames on the Official Singles chart, easily surpassing the 17 that 'Sorry, I'm Here for Someone Else' has managed, as well as the 11 that 'Mystical Magical' has collected. In fact, 'Beautiful Things' has lived on the main songs tally for several times longer than both of those tracks combined.

Nicki Minaj turns down Recording Academy board offer over Grammy snubs
Nicki Minaj recently revealed she declined an invitation to join the board of the Recording Academy, citing her integrity as the main reason. In a now-viral clip from her Stationhead livestream on July 10, the rapper explained that accepting the position didn't align with her values, especially given her history with the Grammy Awards. 'I appreciated it, I thought that was a very kind gesture, but my integrity couldn't allow me to accept it,' Minaj said. She added that the offer came before the release of her 2023 album Pink Friday 2. The rapper emphasized it wouldn't make sense for her to be on the board of an institution that has never awarded her a Grammy despite 12 nominations. Minaj also criticized others who might have used such a position for personal gain, claiming many would 'be spiteful to others and not vote for people fairly.' In the same livestream, Nicki spoke about reaching out to streamers Kai Cenat and Adin Ross to explore the idea of streaming on platforms like Twitch or Kick. She even posted a poll on X asking fans to choose between the two. While Twitch received more fan support, Ross suggested Nicki would thrive on Kick, where creators have more freedom to express themselves. Adin Ross stated, 'Nicki, come to Kick. You like to speak your mind — you're a queen. Twitch is gonna silence you.' As of now, Minaj has not confirmed which streaming platform she might join. No official comment has been released by the Recording Academy regarding her claims.
