Empire’s reign knows no bounds. The Fox smash (and recent EW cover subject) has consistently broken ratings records, and now the show’s music is taking over the iTunes charts, with the song “Conqueror” nabbing the No. 4 slot and “You’re So Beautiful” holding down No. 11.

On last night’s battle cry of an episode, Jamal (Jussie Smollett) and Delphine (Estelle) debuted their shining, triumphant duet, “Conqueror,” and in the hours since the episode aired, the track has raced up the charts. It’s the highest any of the show’s tracks have reached thus far. (Though if we’re being frank here, “Conqueror” doesn’t have half the soul of earlier efforts like “Tell The Truth” and “No Apologies.” Still, a hit’s a hit.)

Close on “Conqueror’s” tail at is “You’re So Beautiful,” the Lucious Lyon redux-turned-coming-out anthem, which Jamal shocked the world with at last week’s White Party. The track was produced by Jim Beanz, and co-written by Beanz and Smollett. Last week, Smollettrevealed to EW that he has inked his own deal with Columbia Records—and by the looks of these charts, that signing was a no-brainer.

That wasn't even funny.

 

[pickles]

maybe he thought they was still shooting and was just continuing his character's reaction from the sway interview on the show

Check your gaydar breh. That nikka a tropical wild mango.

All i know is i want to see what they are going to do when next season drops. They are going to have a tough time topping this season with all the drama and whatnot that has happened so far. I'm sure Lee Daniels has plenty more up his sleeve and here's to hoping Empire gets a long run tv.

 

[ThiefyPoo]

I been watching this show the entire time with no complaints this week was too got damn silly, even for this show. The show suffers because of it, and let's be reality, the show is entertaining but it's not A1 anything

Speak for yourself


What other show put faggy kids in trash cans huh answer me that answer me


Show is A1


Every recap show should start with mal getting thrown in the trash can

What makes it so funny is you don't see that coming at all

My face went from

 

[Mikael Blowpiff]

Every Terrence Howard character is named Lucious, even if it isn't.

 

[Ohene]

Look at her y'all doing what we all did in the beginning taking the show too serious.

If you don't sit down and stop using logic


Show is A1 let it do what it do baby girl

meh. fine line between over the top and corny. empire gets on the wrong side quite often

 

[Roaden Polynice]

So the nikka who plays Jamal is actually gay

More power to him

[Rigamortus]

Luscious' reaction when Jamal came out

Too much shyt to list

 

[satam55]

no homo to the "this the type of song that make a man love a man" being stuck in my head all day

i know i ain't the only one either

Lee Daniels would be the fruit booty c00n who makes it seem like black fathers are the only ones who don't want their sons being gay

Bout to start downloading this show rather than DVR so I don't give him ratings.

This! Lowkey, Lee Daniels pushing the gay agenda so hard on this show makes me want the show to flop after this season.
