First-week sales for Patterns were encouraged by the set’s availability across eight vinyl variants (including one signed edition). Her vinyl sales totaled 12,000 for the week – Ballerini’s best week ever on vinyl. Plus, two CDs were available (including one signed edition). On Oct. 28, a digital version was released on her website with two bonus cuts. Additionally, the album was sale-priced for $4.99 in the iTunes Store.

Ballerini, from Knoxville, Tenn., co-wrote all 15 songs on Patterns. The LP’s first single, “Cowboys Cry Too,” with Noah Kahan, jumps 47-24 on the streaming-, airplay- and sales-based Hot Country Songs chart. The song, which debuted at its No. 16 high in July, drew 4.9 million official U.S. streams, up 69%, in the tracking week. On Country Airplay, it ranks at No. 43 (2.5 million in audience, up 3%); it began at its No. 27 best in July.
Patterns marks Ballerini’s eighth Top Country Albums entry. It follows Rolling Up the Welcome Mat, which opened at No. 21 in February 2023 before reaching No. 11 the next month. Her charted titles before that are Subject to Change, which started at its No. 3 high in October 2022; Ballerini (No. 9, September 2020); Kelsea (No. 2, April 2020); Unapologetically (No. 3, November 2017); The First Time (No. 4, June 2015); and Kelsea Ballerini (No. 40, March 2015).
Rosé makes it two records in as many weeks in Australia, where “APT.” retains top spot on the national singles chart.
Earlier, the New Zealand-born, Australia-raised BLACKPINK star ended Sabrina Carpenter’s reign on the ARIA Singles Chart, as “APT.” (via Atlantic/Warner), her collaboration with Bruno Mars, debuted at No. 1.
With that feat, Rosé (born Roseanne Park) became the first solo female K-pop star to top the tally, and just the second solo artist from South Korea to climb the chart ladder after PSY’s “Gangnam Style” spent six weeks on top back in 2012.

“APT.” enters a second week at the summit of the ARIA Chart, marking the first time that a Korean solo artist or group has spent more than a week in the top spot since “Gangnam Style.” She’s the first solo female Korean artist to do so.

Born in Auckland, and raised in Melbourne, Rosé relocated to South Korea aged 15, when the world of K-pop came calling. At her father’s suggestion, she auditioned for South Korean music company YG Entertainment. It was a shrewd move. The rest is music history.
Comprising Rosé, Jisoo, Jennie and Lisa, BLACKPINK is a record-smashing machine – here and everywhere. In 2022, BLACKPINK set the mark for the highest-debuting single by a K-pop group in ARIA Chart History when “Pink Venom” hit No. 1, beating the No. 2 start for BTS’ 2020 hit “Dynamite.”
BLACKPINK’s two studio albums, The Album (from 2020) and Born Pink (2022), both debuted and peaked at No. 2 on the Australian albums survey. In support of Born Pink, the pop group last year embarked on an east coast arena tour of Australia.
A reference to the Korean drinking game aparteu, or apartment in English, “APT.” is the first single from Rosé’s debut album Rosie, which is scheduled to drop on Dec. 6.
The cut bowed at No. 1 on both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts, and opened at No. 4 on the Official U.K. Singles Chart, establishing a new record in the process.
It’s Ovy On The Drums’ winning week as the Colombian celebrates his first No. 1 as an artist on any Billboard ranking, as “Mírame,” with Blessd, advances 2-1 on the Latin Rhythm Airplay chart (dated Nov. 9). As a songwriter and producer, he’s banked 12 rulers on the list.

“Mírame,” released on Cigol/Globalatino/Warner Latina, jumps to No. 1 on Latin Rhythm Airplay with 7.6 million audience impressions, earned in the U.S. during the 25-31 tracking week. That’s a 6% gain from the week prior across monitored Latin rhythm radio stations according to Luminate.
With “Mírame” at No. 1, Blessd collects his third No. 1on Latin Rhythm Airplay, and second in 2024 through a Colombian pair-up, following “Si Sabe Ferxxo,” with Feid, which ruled for one week in June.

Two other Colombian team-ups –by two artists in a lead role– have landed at the summit on Latin Rhythm Airplay in the 2020s decade, both through Shakira collabs: while “Copa Vacía,” with Manuel Turizo, reigned for one week, “TQG,” with Karol G, dominated for seven weeks, both in 2023.
Before Ovy on The Drums’ secured his fist champ this week as an artist, he managed 12 No. 1s as songwriter and producer (mostly through Karol G songs) spanning his eight-year Billboard chart career. Among those, Becky G and Karol G’s “Mamiii” earned him his longest-leading No. 1 track on Latin Rhythm Airplay, dominating for 10 weeks in 2022.
Elsewhere, “Mírame” holds at its No. 3 high on the overall Latin Airplay chart, Ovy’s highest-charting entry and first top 10 there. Plus, in addition to its radio haul, the song rebounds to No. 15 (from No. 18) on the multi-metric Hot Latin Songs chart with a 4% boost in streams, after it generated 2.3 million official U.S. clicks during the tracking week. The latter blends airplay, streams and digital sales.

Tyler, The Creator earns new career milestones on Billboard’s charts, thanks to his latest album, Chromakopia.
The set debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 (dated Nov. 9) with 299,500 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. in the Oct. 25-31 tracking week, according to Luminate – Tyler, The Creator’s biggest week ever in terms of units. Notably, the set was released on an off-cycle Monday (Oct. 28); thus, its first-week sum is from only four days of activity. (Most albums are released on Fridays, giving them a full seven days of activity in their opening chart weeks.)
The LP sold 66,000 on vinyl, the third-biggest debut week for a rap album on vinyl since Luminate began tracking sales in 1991.

Prior to this week, Tyler, The Creator had charted 33 Hot 100 hits, reaching as high as No. 13 with “Earfquake” in 2019. His new total of 46 career entries dates to September 2011, when he first charted as a featured act on The Game’s “Martians vs Goblins,” also featuring Lil Wayne. The song spent one week on the chart at No. 100. He returned in July 2017 with “Who Dat Boy” (No. 87 peak).
Thanks to their featured appearances on the songs listed above, Santigold, LaToiya Williams and Lola Young all earn their first career entries on the Hot 100.
Meanwhile, Lil Wayne tallies his 187th career Hot 100 hit, and first of 2024, thanks to his feature on “Sticky.” He has now charted at least one song on the Hot 100 in every year since 2004 – 21 consecutive years and counting, the longest active streak among all acts. The next-longest active runs are by Jason Aldean and Chris Brown (20 years each), Taylor Swift (19), Luke Bryan (18) and Mariah Carey (17) – all five acts have all charted in 2024, thus continuing their respective streaks.

Elsewhere, aespa’s “Whiplash” bounds to the top 10 of both the Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S.; Tyler, the Creator’s “St. Chroma,” featuring Daniel Caesar, debuts in the Global 200’s top 10; and JIN’s “I’ll Be There” arrives in the top tier on Global Excl. U.S.
The Global 200 and Global Excl. U.S. charts rank songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by Luminate. The Global 200 is inclusive of worldwide data and the Global Excl. U.S. chart comprises data from territories excluding the United States.
Chart ranks are based on a weighted formula incorporating official-only streams on both subscription and ad-supported tiers of audio and video music services, as well as download sales, the latter of which reflect purchases from full-service digital music retailers from around the world, with sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites excluded from the charts’ calculations.
“APT.,” released Oct. 18, tops the Global 200 for a second week with 207.5 million streams (down 8% week-over-week), as well as 17,000 sold (down 40%), worldwide Oct. 25-31. The song claims the sixth-biggest streaming week since the Global 200 began – and becomes the first title since the chart began to have logged at least 200 million streams globally in multiple weeks.
Below is a look at all six weeks in which songs have topped 200 million streams worldwide; one belongs to BLACKPINK and now two to the group’s ROSÉ:
289.2 million, “Butter,” BTS, Global 200 dated June 5, 2021
224.5 million, “APT.,” ROSÉ & Bruno Mars, Nov. 2, 2024
217.1 million, “Seven,” Jung Kook feat. Latto, July 29, 2023

“APT.” introduces ROSÉ’s solo studio album, rosie, due Dec. 6.
Lady Gaga and Mars’ “Die With a Smile” holds at No. 2 on the Global 200, following eight weeks at No. 1, the most for any song this year. It drew 126 million streams (up 4%) worldwide Oct. 25-31 (aided by three new mixes and sale-pricing) and has tallied over 100 million streams globally in each of the last nine weeks, the most in a row since The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber’s “Stay” also linked nine triple-digit weeks in August-October 2021.
The Global 200’s top five is stationary, rounded out by Billie Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” at No. 3, following three weeks at No. 1 beginning in August; Oscar Maydon and Fuerza Regida’s “Tu Boda” at its No. 4 high; and Sabrina Carpenter’s “Espresso” at No. 5, after three nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 beginning in June.
aespa’s “Whiplash” flies 30-8 on the Global 200 following its first full week of tracking (after it was released Oct. 21), led by 46.1 million streams worldwide Oct. 25-31. The South Korean pop group achieves its first top 10 on the chart.
Tyler, the Creator also collects his first Global 200 top 10, as “St. Chroma,” featuring Daniel Caesar, debuts at No. 10 with 42 million global streams. Notably, the song was released Oct. 28 and amassed its streaming sum from just four days during the tracking week. It’s from his new album, Chromakopia, which debuts at No. 1 on the U.S.-based Billboard 200. Caesar adds his second Global 200 top 10, after Justin Bieber’s “Peaches,” on which he and Giveon are featured, led for two weeks in 2021.
“APT.” concurrently rules Global Excl. U.S. for a second week, with 187 million streams (down 6%) and 12,000 sold (down 40%) outside the U.S. Oct. 25-31.
As on the Global 200, “Die With a Smile” ranks at No. 2 on Global Excl. U.S. following eight weeks at No. 1.
Eilish’s “Birds of a Feather” keeps at No. 3 on Global Excl. U.S., after three weeks at No. 1 beginning in August, and Oscar Maydon and Fuerza Regida’s “Tu Boda” rises 5-4 for a new high.
aespa’s “Whiplash” vaults 18-5 on Global Excl. U.S. with 43.3 million streams outside the U.S. The act earns its first top five hit on the chart and its second top 10, after “Supernova” hit No. 6 in June.
Plus, JIN’s “I’ll Be There” launches at No. 10 on Global Excl. U.S. with 34.9 million streams and 28,000 sold outside the U.S. from its Oct. 25 release through Oct. 31. The BTS member posts his second solo top 10, after “The Astronaut” rocketed to No. 6 in 2022.

Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” rebounds a spot for a 16th week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, matching the longest reign of the 2020s. The song, which became the singer-songwriter’s first leader in July, matches the domination of Morgan Wallen’s “Last Night” – like “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” a country-pop crossover smash – in 2023.
Over the Hot 100’s entire 66-year history, “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” is now tied for the second-longest command, among just five hits to have led for at least 16 weeks. Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road,” featuring Billy Ray Cyrus, ruled for a record 19 weeks in 2019.
“A Bar Song (Tipsy)” additionally extends the longest No. 1 run this year – 20 weeks – on the multimetric Hot Country Songs chart. It’s one of only nine titles to reach the milestone since the survey became the genre’s all-encompassing songs chart in 1958.
Elsewhere in the Hot 100’s top 10, Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars’ “Die With a Smile” rises 4-2 for a new high, aided by three new versions and sale-pricing during the tracking week.
Plus, Tyler, the Creator notches his first two Hot 100 top 10s: “St. Chroma,” featuring Daniel Caesar – the week’s most-streamed song – debuts at No. 7 and “Noid” soars 43-10. Both are from his new album, Chromakopia, which launches at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.
The Hot 100 blends all-genre U.S. streaming (official audio and official video), radio airplay and sales data, the lattermost metric reflecting purchases of physical singles and digital tracks from full-service digital music retailers; digital singles sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites are excluded from chart calculations.

‘Tipsy’ Airplay, Streams & Sales
Tyler, the Creator scores his third No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 chart as his new studio effort, CHROMAKOPIA, arrives atop the tally (dated Nov. 9). The set launches with 299,500 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. in the week ending Oct. 31 — his best week ever in terms of units. Its starting sum — the sixth-largest debut of 2024 — is also notable because the album arrived on an off-cycle Monday (Oct. 28), and thus only had four days of activity in its first chart tracking week. (Most albums are released on a Friday, giving them a full seven days of activity in their opening chart week.)
The album was announced on Oct. 17, slightly more than 10 days before its release on Oct. 28.
Trending on Billboard
CHROMAKOPIA also claims Tyler, the Creator’s biggest streaming week ever for an album, and largest sales week ever — again, after only four days of availability. Streams and sales were so strong for the set, it would have been No. 1 off streams alone, or solely on sales.
He previously hit No. 1 on the chart with his last two releases, Call Me If You Get Lost (in 2021) and Igor (in 2019). In total, CHROMAKOPIA marks his seventh top 10-charting set on the Billboard 200 — the entirety of his charting efforts.
Also in the top 10 of the new Billboard 200, Halsey logs her fifth top two-charting set as The Great Impersonator debuts at No. 2, Kelsea Ballerini achieves her highest-charting album ever as Patterns opens at No. 4 and Eminem’s chart-topping The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce) vaults 44-6 after its vinyl release.
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, compiled by Luminate. 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 Nov. 9, 2024-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on Tuesday, Nov. 5. For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram.
Of CHROMAKOPIA’s 299,500 equivalent album units earned, SEA units comprise 157,000 (equaling 212.55 million on-demand official streams of the 14 songs on the streaming edition of the album, his best streaming week ever; it debuts at No. 1 on Top Streaming Albums chart), album sales comprise 142,000 (his best sales week ever; it debuts at No. 1 on the Top Album Sales chart) and TEA units comprise 500 units. Vinyl sales accounted for 66,000 of the album’s first-week number, which is Tyler, the Creator’s best week ever on vinyl, and the third-biggest debut week on vinyl for a rap album since Luminate began tracking sales in 1991.
CHROMAKOPIA was issued as an 11-song standard digital download album, a 14-song album on CD and vinyl, and a 14-song digital deluxe and streaming album. (The two 14-song editions each had three additional songs versus the standard 11-song album. The 14-song CD and vinyl added “Mother,” “Sticky” (featuring Sexyy Red and Lil Wayne) and “Thought I Was Dead” (featuring Santigold). The 14-song digital and streaming edition added “Balloon” (featuring Doechii), “Sticky” (featuring GloRilla, Lil Wayne and Sexyy Red) and “Thought I Was Dead” (featuring ScHoolboy Q and Santigold).
Album sales were bolstered by the set’s availability across six deluxe collectible CD boxed sets (each containing a CD, poster and another branded merch item) and a green-colored vinyl pressing. The boxed sets and vinyl were exclusively sold via the artist’s official webstore. A stand-alone CD was available to pre-order, exclusively, in the same store, but has yet to be shipped to customers. All physical editions of the album are only available via the artist’s webstore.
The standard 11-song digital download album, as well as the 14-song deluxe digital edition, was widely available through the iTunes Store and similar services (but were not sold on the artist’s webstore).
At No. 2 on the Billboard 200, Halsey’s The Great Impersonator debuts with 93,000 equivalent album units earned. Of that sum, album sales comprise 81,000, SEA units comprise 12,000 (equaling 16.05 million on-demand streams of the songs on the streaming edition of the album) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum. The Great Impersonator is the fifth top 10-charting set for Halsey, all of which have debuted in the top two positions of the list.
The album’s first-week sales were aided by its availability across many permutations: a dozen deluxe collectible CD boxed sets (each containing a CD and branded merchandise), a standard CD, a standard signed CD, four alternative cover CDs (each signed) and eight vinyl variants (including one signed edition). Most of the offerings were exclusively sold in Halsey’s official webstore. The album was also released as a standard digital album, and via seven alternative digital download albums (each with one to three exclusive bonus tracks unique to each of the seven editions) — all of which sold for a discounted $4.99.
The vinyl sales added up to just over 26,000 copies — Halsey’s best week on vinyl ever.
Sabrina Carpenter’s former leader Short n’ Sweet falls 2-3 on the new Billboard 200 with 74,000 equivalent album units earned (down 5%).
Kelsea Ballerini’s Patterns bows at No. 4 on the Billboard 200, marking the artist’s highest-charting album ever and second top 10-charting set. It arrives with 54,000 equivalent album units earned — her best week by units. Of that sum, album sales comprise 35,000 (her second-largest sales week), SEA units comprise 19,000 and TEA units comprise a negligible sum.
Ballerini had previously gone as high as No. 7 on the Billboard 200 with Unapologetically in 2017.
The new album was preceded by the song “Cowboys Cry Too,” with Noah Kahan, which reached the top 20 on the Hot Country Songs chart in July.
The set’s first-week sales were encouraged by its availability across eight vinyl variants (including one signed edition), three digital download editions (a standard set, one with bonus commentary tracks and one with two bonus song tracks), and two CDs (including one signed variant). Her vinyl sales totaled 12,000 for the week — Ballerini’s best week ever on vinyl.
Rod Wave’s Last Lap dips 4-5 on the Billboard 200 with 51,000 equivalent album units earned (down 24%), while Eminem’s The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce) jumps 44-6 with 49,000 units (up 193%) after its release on vinyl and cassette. The latter was issued across five vinyl editions (mostly color variants) which combined to sell 31,000 copies in the tracking week — Eminem’s best week ever on vinyl.
Rounding out the rest of the top 10 on the new Billboard 200: Gracie Abrams’ The Secret of Us rises 8-7 (49,000 equivalent album units earned; down less than 1%), Morgan Wallen’s chart-topping One Thing at a Time falls 6-8 (46,000; down 9%), Billie Eilish’s Hit Me Hard and Soft is steady at No. 9 (nearly 46,000; down 5%) and GloRilla’s Glorious falls 7-10 (45,000; down 11%).

The New Jersey-born, Florida-raised singer-songwriter has had a viral hit with “Sailor Song,” which recently peaked at No. 28 on the Billboard Hot 100. Perez ends Sabrina Carpenter’s nine-week run at No. 1 with “Taste,” and is the most-streamed song of the week in the U.K. with 5 million streams, according to the Official Charts Company.
Speaking to the Official Charts on her victory, Perez says, “There’s such a big hole in the conversations that we’re having in mainstream music. There’s an entire group of people – the queer community – who need representation.”
She adds: “Knowing that ‘Sailor Song’ is a vessel for that, it’s amazing. Thank you!”
