Adele’s ‘30’ Spends Sixth Week at No. 1 on Billboard 200, ‘Encanto’ Hits Top 10

Plus: The classic holiday compilation 'A Christmas Gift for You From Phil Spector' reaches the top 10 for the first time.

 

Adele’s 30 holds court atop the Billboard 200 albums chart for a sixth consecutive, and total, week at No. 1 (chart dated Jan. 8, 2022). The effort earned 99,000 equivalent album units (down 53%) in the U.S. in the week of Dec. 24-30, according to MRC Data.

 

Also in the new top 10, a pair of albums hit the region for the first time: the new Encanto film soundtrack bounds 110-7, while the classic holiday compilation A Christmas Gift for You From Phil Spector jumps 11-10.

 

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 Jan 8, 2022-dated chart (where 30 spends a sixth week at No. 1) will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on Jan. 5 (one day later than usual, owed to the holiday week).

Right it's the same feeling of a #2 or #11 but still huge.

I wonder if Encanto has a shot at #1 next week before The Weeknd drops

Only 1k off from another 100k six weeks in is amazing! THE REAL music industry does it again

The soundtrack is quickly turning into Frozen 2.0, will be #1 within a few weeks at most

It’s gonna be pretty close but I think Adele got it. The album sales drop won’t be nearly as steep this week I should hope.

Please Excuse Me for Being Antisocial was really huge

1.137M for sacRED TV  

7 weeks in the top 3 

Come on Encanto snatch that #1!
