Taylor’s historic reign comes to an end as Eminem says bye to Slim Shady and the boys of ENHYPEN make their biggest debut. We’re breaking down the Billboard 200 albums chart.
Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department spent its first 12 weeks on the chart at No. 1, but this week falls to No. 4 due to some stiff competition. Eminem’s The Death of Slim Shady becomes his 11th No.1 album on the Billboard 200. The set launches with 281,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S., the biggest of any rap album this year.
And we gotta say congrats to our friends, ENHYPEN. They capture their highest charting album ever, and fourth top 10, as ROMANCE:UNTOLD debuts at No. 2 with 124,000 equivalent album units earned, the act’s largest week ever by units. Find their full interview on our YouTube.
