YoungBoy Never Broke Again Achieves Third No. 1 Album in Less Than a Year on the Billboard 200 Chart With ‘Top’

Plus: Marilyn Manson scores 10th top 10 album with arrival of 'We Are Chaos.'

Rapper YoungBoy Never Broke Again achieves his third No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 chart in less than a year, as the fittingly titled Top debuts atop the tally. The set was released on Sept. 11 via Never Broke Again/Artist Partner Group/Atlantic and earned 126,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. in the week ending Sept. 17, according to Nielsen Music/MRC Data.

 

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 comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. The new Sept. 26-dated chart (where Top debuts at No. 1) will be posted in full on Billboard's website on Tuesday, Sept. 22. For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both Twitter and Instagram.

 

Of Top’s 126,000 equivalent album units earned in its first week, 106,000 are from SEA units (equaling 156.32 million on-demand streams of the set’s songs in its first week), 19,000 comprise album sales and a little under 1,000 are in TEA units.

Cardi B's 'WAP' Tops Billboard Hot 100 for Fourth Week, The Weeknd's 'Blinding Lights' Makes History in Top Five

The latter breaks the record for the most weeks ever logged in the top five.

Cardi B's "WAP," featuring Megan Thee Stallion, spends a fourth week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart.

 

Plus, The Weeknd's former Hot 100 leader "Blinding Lights" breaks the record for the most weeks spent in the top five in the chart's history and Lewis Capaldi's "Before You Go" returns to the Hot 100's top 10, at a new high, and takes over as the most-heard song on U.S. radio (dethroning "Blinding Lights").

 

The Hot 100 blends all-genre U.S. streaming, radio airplay and sales data. All charts (dated Sept. 26) will update on Billboard.com tomorrow (Sept. 22). For all chart news, you can follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both Twitter and Instagram.
