Renan90 Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 (edited) Olivia Rodrigo’s ‘Sour’ Returns to No. 1 on Billboard 200 Albums Chart After Vinyl Release Plus: Trippie Redd & Lorde debut in top five, while reissues from Rod Wave, TOMORROW X TOGETHER & Aaliyah impact the top 10. Olivia Rodrigo’s Sour returns for a fifth week nonconsecutive, and total, week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, following its vinyl LP release on Aug. 20. It continues to have the second-most weeks at No. 1 in 2021, behind only Morgan Wallen’s 10-week run with Dangerous: The Double Album. In the tracking week ending Aug. 26, Sour earned 133,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. (up 133%), according to MRC Data. Of that sum, album sales comprise 84,000 (up 1,201%), with vinyl LP sales equaling 76,000 of that figure (the second-largest sales week for a vinyl album since MRC Data began electronically tracking sales in 1991). Also in the new top 10, the latest efforts from Trippie Redd and Lorde debut in the top 10, while deluxe reissues of Rod Wave’s SoulFly and TOMORROW X TOGETHER’s The Chaos Chapter: Freeze return to the to the region, and Aaliyah’s long out-of-print 1996 album One In a Million hits the top 10 for the first time following its reissue on Aug. 20. 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. 4, 2021-dated chart (where Sour returns to No. 1) will be posted in full on Billboard's website on Aug. 31. For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both Twitter and Instagram. Of Sour’s 133,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. in the week ending Aug. 26, album sales comprise 84,000 (up 1,201%), SEA units comprise 48,000 (down 3%, equaling 69.82 million on-demand streams of the album’s tracks) and TEA units comprise 1,000 units (down 1%). As noted above, vinyl LP sales drove 76,000 of Sour’s total sales in the U.S. in the week ending Aug. 26. That marks the second-largest sales week for an album on vinyl since MRC Data began tracking sales in 1991. The only larger week was logged by the arrival of Taylor Swift’s Evermore on vinyl, when it sold 102,000 in the week ending June 3. https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/9621697/olivia-rodrigo-sour-returns-number-one-billboard-200-albums-chart-2 Billboard 200: #1(+2) @Olivia_Rodrigo, SOUR 133,000 (1,576,000 units since release). *re-peak; fifth week at #1* Billboard 200: #2(new) @trippieredd, Trip At Knight 81,000 [107.99 million on-demand streams | 5,000 pure sales]. .@rodwave's 'SoulFly' rises to #3 on this week’s Billboard 200 with 62,000 sold, up 350%.

Extended 'Stay': The Kid LAROI & Justin Bieber Top Billboard Hot 100 For Fourth Week Bieber rewrites his longest reign as a lead artist. The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber's "Stay" scores a fourth week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart. Notably, among Bieber's eight Hot 100 No. 1s, "Stay" passes the three-week reign of "Sorry" in 2016 for his longest reign as a lead artist.

Plus, Dua Lipa's "Levitating," at No. 6 on the Hot 100, notches its 34th week in the top 10, passing Maroon 5's "Girls Like You," featuring Cardi B, for the longest top 10 stay among songs by women in the chart's history.

PopFan Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 25 minutes ago, ALA said: 34k pure for Lorde, so did HDD count the discless ones? Fff mess HDD reported 64k (box set included). This means Lorde sold ~9k box sets which aren’t counted by BB as they are considered merch. In the end, a a lot of noise for nothing. Disappointing numbers for Lorde.
