Pop Album Chart : Badd Makes Good With ‘C.M.B.’

Boosted by Color Me Badd’s latest hit single, “Thinkin’ Back” (No. 30), the group’s album “C.M.B.” is back in the Billboard magazine’s pop Top Five, inching up a notch to No. 5. The album by the Oklahoma City vocal quartet, which has had consecutive No. 1 pop singles, has been as high as No. 3. If the new single, which moved up eight rungs, makes it to the Top 10, the album may challenge Garth Brooks’ “Ropin’ the Wind” for the top spot.

Fast-rising albums: Mr. Big’s “Lean Into It” (No. 23) and Blacksheep’s “A Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing” (No. 43). Right Said Fred’s “I’m Too Sexy” is still the No. 1 pop single.

* Rapper Sir Mix-a-Lot’s “Mack Daddy” is making a sudden splash on the pop chart, debuting at an impressive No. 38.
