Taylor Swift
As expected, Taylor Swift‘s new album Midnights easily holds the #1 position on the Billboard 200 chart for the second week in a row, earning another 342,000 equivalent album units, according to Luminate. This is the second-largest total for a second week of release since Adele‘s 25 back in December of 2015. Billboard notes that the total number for Midnights is larger than the totals for albums #2-7 combined.
At #2 is It’s Only Me from Lil Baby with Bad Bunny staying at #3 with his smash Un Verano Sin Ti. Coming in at #4 is The Beatles‘ 1966 classic Revolver, thanks to its new deluxe reissue. The special edition of Revolver was released in a variety of expanded formats and editions. All versions of the album were combined for tracking and charting purposes.
Morgan Wallen‘s Dangerous: The Double Album is at #5 with The Weeknd at #6 with The Highlights. Baby Keem‘s The Melodic Blue flies from #105 to #7 thanks to an expanded digital reissue with bonus tracks plus its vinyl version arriving. The Melodic Blue was originally released in September of last year and debuted at #5.
Kodak Black‘s newest album Kutthroat Bill: Vol. 1 debuts at #8, with Harry’s House from Harry Styles at #9 and Beyoncé‘s Renaissance at #10.
