There is a "consecutively" in the OP? Thats correct?

So its not the overall record yet?

#1 was actually difficult to achieve and moreover albums never used to debut at #1. I think Elton John was the first to do that in the late 70s. And even then it didn’t become a regular thing until like the late 90s

Who the hell is Herp Alpert and why the hell he has thai record in the 1st place.

 

I just spotify him and he got like 300k monthly listenners, how?

I get that the wording makes this seem like a hyper-specific record, but pointing it out isn’t really about the exact number itself. People just say that to complain about people discussing her success. The point is that it’s insane that she’s charted so many albums simultaneously for so many weeks, something no one else has done (and she will continue charting 8 or more every week for quite a while).

[spree]

get those units!

the consecutive is that she charted the eight albums consecutively not that the weeks that she charted those albums were consecutive. its the overall record

English isnt my first language, but I think thats the wrong word here.

Simultaneous seems correct. Or just nothing.

But thanks. Was a bit confused 

 

Surprised Drake has only 3 weeks
