billboard 200 – OMG Check It Out ! https://omgcheckitout.com Tue, 21 Jan 2025 08:56:05 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.3 Bad Bunny’s Hits No. 1 With “Debí Tirar Más Fotos” https://omgcheckitout.com/bad-bunnys-hits-no-1-with-debi-tirar-mas-fotos/ Tue, 21 Jan 2025 06:03:00 +0000 https://omgcheckitout.com/?p=42595 Bad Bunny made quite a splash with his latest album Debí Tirar Más Fotos, and he’s getting credit where credit is due. He soared to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart with his new album, narrowly beating Taylor Swift’s Lover: Live From Paris by just 1,000  units.

With 203,500 equivalent album units earned, Debí Tirar Más Foto soared to No. 1 during its first full tracking week, but the race for No. 1 has been pretty tight. Taylor Swift’s Lover: Live From Paris came in second with 202,500 equivalent album units, just 1,000 units behind Bad Bunny’s latest.

Debí Tirar Más Fotos owes its success to impressive streaming numbers, and it managed to score the largest streaming week for a Latin album since Bad Bunny’s Un Verano Sin Ti. The Puerto Rican superstar also managed to hit No. 1 with El Último Tour Del Mundo and Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana.

Debí Tirar Más Fotos was released on January 5, and it produced a total of 17 brand-new tracks, including singles “El Clúb”, “Pitorro de Coco”, and “Baile Inolvidable”. Bad Bunny will promote it with a 30-day residency at Coliseo de Puerto Rico, and he sold out all 400,000 tickets in just four hours.

Taylor Swift Scores Tenth Week at No. 1 With “The Tortured Poets Department” https://omgcheckitout.com/taylor-swift-scores-tenth-week-at-no-1-with-the-tortured-poets-department/ Mon, 01 Jul 2024 06:14:00 +0000 https://omgcheckitout.com/?p=42219 Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department is shaping up to be one of the defining albums of 2024, and the Billboard 200 chart reflects its success. Over two months after its release, Swift’s latest LP returned to No. 1 for its tenth consecutive week, making history in the process.

With 115,000 equivalent album units earned during its latest week on the chart, Tortured Poets easily returned to No. 1. Gracie Abrams’ sophomore album The Secret of Us was the only real competition it faced this week, with 89,000 equivalent album units earned.

Swift previously managed to spend at least ten weeks atop the Billboard 200 with 1989 and Fearless, and this number is quite impressive. She joins Whitney Houston, The Beatles, Elvis Presley, and The Kingston Trio as only the fifth act to have at least three albums with ten weeks at No. 1 and the first to do so this century.

The Tortured Poets Department and its companion piece The Anthology both hit the shelves on April 19, along with the music video for the lead single “Fortnight” ft. Post Malone. Swift later released several limited-edition variants featuring acoustic covers, demons, and other versions of the songs, which boosted its sales in the weeks to come.

Ariana Grande’s “Eternal Sunshine” Tops the Billboard 200 & Hot 100 Charts https://omgcheckitout.com/ariana-grandes-eternal-sunshine-tops-the-billboard-200-hot-100-charts/ Tue, 19 Mar 2024 06:04:00 +0000 https://omgcheckitout.com/?p=41928 Ariana Grande created quite a commotion with Eternal Sunshine, and this album is doing pretty great on the Billboard charts this week. In addition to topping the Billboard 200 chart, Grande also managed to hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with her latest single “We Can’t Be Friends”.

Eternal Sunshine was released on March 8, and it debuted at No. 1 with 227,000 equivalent album units earned upon its debut, including 77,000 in album sales. This is the largest week for an album released in 2024, and it helped Grande score her sixth chart-topping album.

“We Can’t Be Friends” is Grande’s seventh single to debut atop the Hot 100 chart, and this number is quite historic. She surpasses Taylor Swift as a woman with the most No. 1 debuts on this chart.

This is the second single from Eternal Sunshine to debut at No. 1, following the success of “Yes, And?”, helping Grande become the first female artist to ever debut multiple songs from two different albums atop the Hot 100 chart.

Taylor Swift Ends the Year at No. 1 With “1989 (Taylor’s Version)” https://omgcheckitout.com/taylor-swift-ends-the-year-at-no-1-with-1989-taylors-version/ Mon, 25 Dec 2023 06:22:00 +0000 https://omgcheckitout.com/?p=40960 Taylor Swift set countless records throughout 2023, and it’s only fitting she’s ending the year at No. 1! The Grammy winner’s re-recording of 1989 (Taylor’s Version) hit No. 1 for its fourth non-consecutive week, becoming the final album of the year to top the Billboard 200 chart.

1989 (Taylor’s Version) earned the top spot with 136,000 equivalent album units during its fourth week on the chart, joining her former No. 1 albums Midnights and Lover in the top ten. Nicki Minaj was right behind with Minaj’s Pink Friday 2, which earned 100,000 equivalent album units during its second week.

This marks Swift’s 67th week at No. 1 across all 13 of her chart-topping releases, and this number is quite impressive. She ties Elvis Presley for the most weeks at No. 1 among solo artists since Billboard 200 started regularly publishing their weekly chart in 1956. The all-time record is still held by The Beatles, who spent 132 weeks at No. 1 in the United States.

The rest of the Billboard 200 chart this week is mostly occupied by the holiday albums. Michael Bublé’s former No. 1 Christmas took the No. 4 spot with 70,000 units, along with Nat King Cole’s The Christmas Song at No. 8 and Mariah Carey’s Merry Christmas at No. 10.
