Hey! Say! JUMP’s ‘UMP’ Bows at No. 1 on Japan Hot 100


Hey! Say! JUMP's “UMP” shoots to No. 1 on the Billboard Japan Hot 100, dated Oct. 2, selling 221,762 CDs in its first week.

About six months have passed since the Oblivion Battery opener was released, and while the track is slowing down in most metrics of the chart’s methodology, radio is up by about 1.4 times this week, rising from outside the top 100 to No. The track also made headlines recently when the accompanying music video reached 100 million views on Monday (Sept. 30). Kenshi Yonezu’s “Sayonara, Mata Itsuka!” is back in the top 10, after the full version of the animated opening sequence of the highly acclaimed biographical legal drama series it serves as the theme dropped ahead of the final episode last week.
