With units from track sales and streams included, &#8220;folklore&#8221; generated 86K in total activity during the September 18-24 tracking period.<\/p>\n<p>Both figures rank as the week&#8217;s best, with Alicia Keys&#8217; &#8220;ALICIA&#8221; providing the closest sales competition (49K) and Pop Smoke&#8217;s &#8220;Shoot For The Stars Aim For The Moon&#8221; (79K) taking second for consumption.<\/p>\n<p>Due Sunday, Billboard&#8217;s data may differ slightly from that reported by Hits.
