Renan90 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 (edited) Carrie Underwood Makes Country History on the Billboard 200 Chart As 'Cry Pretty' Debuts at No. 1 The set launches with the biggest week of the year for a woman, and the largest for a country album in more than three years. Carrie Underwood lands her fourth No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 chart, as Cry Pretty starts atop the list. The set, which was released on Sept. 14 via Capitol Nashville, bows with 266,000 equivalent album units earned in the week ending Sept. 20 according to Nielsen Music. Of that sum, 251,000 were in traditional album sales. With the arrival at No. 1, Underwood makes country history: she's the first woman to bring four country albums to the top of the all-genre Billboard 200 chart. The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units. Units are comprised of traditional album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). The new Sept. 29-dated chart (where Cry Pretty debuts at No. 1) will be posted in full on Billboard's websites on Tuesday, Sept. 25. Of Cry Pretty’s 266,000 units, most were in album sales: 251,000, as noted above. The remainder was comprised of SEA units (11,000) and TEA units (4,000). https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/8476470/carrie-underwood-country-history-billboard-200-cry-pretty-no-1 Billboard 200: #1(new) @carrieunderwood, Cry Pretty 266,000 (251,000 in pure sales).

Maroon 5's "Girls Like You," featuring Cardi B, ascends to No. 1, after six weeks waiting at No. 2, on the Billboard Hot 100 chart (dated Sept. 29). Maroon 5 dethrones the 6 God, as Drake's "In My Feelings," which led the list for 10 weeks, drops to No. 2. Notably, "Girls" is the first pop song to top the Hot 100 since January, ending a record 34-week streak of rap No. 1s. Meanwhile, two tracks enter the Hot 100's top 10: Eminem's "Killshot" soars onto the chart at No. 3, arriving as the rapper's milestone 20th top 10, and 5 Seconds of Summer's "Youngblood" lifts 11-10, becoming the band's first top 10. Let's run down the top 10 on the newest Hot 100, which blends all-genre U.S. streaming, radio airplay and digital sales data. All charts will update on Billboard.com tomorrow (Sept. 25). https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/8476577/maroon-5-girls-like-you-hot-100-number-one-cardi-b Hot 100 #1 Girls Like You (+1) #2 In My Feelings (-1) #3 Killshot (NEW) #4 Lucid Dreams (+1) #5 Better Now (-1) #6 I Like It (-3) #7 I Love It (-1) #8 FEFE (-1) #9 SICKO MODE (-1) #10 Youngblood (+1) Edited September 24, 2018 by Renan90 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mean Trees Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 She slayed. Considering her singles aren't performing on Country radio, I think it's safe to say she's pretty much at a Beyonce level where she sell albums without any lengthy promo campaign.
