Kris Wu’s new album “Antares” is enjoying a moment of dominance at the US iTunes store.

As of press time at 10:15AM ET, the album is #1 on the all-genre album sales chart. Songs from the album are meanwhile dominating the single sales chart.

“November Rain” leads the way at #1. “Antares” (#2), “Selfish” (#3), “We Alive” (#4), “Tough Pill” (#5), “Explore” (#6), and “Coupe (featuring Rich The Kid)” (#7) occupy the next six spots.

It will be interesting to see how the album and tracks fare on next week’s Billboard charts. Kris Wu’s releases have generally made decent waves on the Billboard sales charts, but there was at least one case this year (“Like That”) in which Billboard seemed to report markedly lower sales than would have been suggested by the iTunes position.
