Billboard and VersusGame have joined forces to bring music fans a one-of-a-kind, user-generated experience with games that test knowledge of pop culture for a chance to win prizes. Billboard is hosting bi-weekly head-to-head challenges on entertainment and pop culture gaming app VersusGame, where fans can vote on their favorite artists and songs and wager on who will top the charts and more. VersusGame data shows that fans have predicted correct chart outcomes nearly three out of four times so far.
Last week’s challenges featured the following questions:
Which album will debut higher on next week‘s Billboard 200: Jack White’s Fear of the Dawn or Camila Cabello’s Familia?
Answer: Fear of the Dawn. White’s new LP launches at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 (dated April 23), while Cabello’s Familia opens at No. 10. They add to their top 10 tallies, as White lands his fifth solo top 10 and Cabello earns her third.
Will Harry Styles‘ “As It Was” spend a second week at No. 1 on next week’s Hot 100: Yes or No?
Answer: No. “As It Was” ranks at No. 2 on the latest Hot 100, as Jack Harlow’s “First Class” flies in at No. 1. Still, “As It Was” wins the chart’s top Airplay Gainer award, as it jumps 19-14 on Radio Songs (up 25% to 33.8 million in audience, according to Luminate, formerly MRC Data).
And: Which song will be higher on next week‘s Hot 100: Dua Lipa’s “Levitating” or Elton John and Lipa’s “Cold Heart (Pnau Remix)”?
