Also in the top 10 of the latest Billboard 200, new albums from SEVENTEEN and Miley Cyrus debut, while Swift’s chart-topping reputation, released in 2017, returns, zooming 78-5. The latter benefits from an outpouring of fan support following the news that Swift had acquired her Big Machine Records catalog, inclusive of reputation.

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 June 14, 2025-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on June 10. For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram.

Of I’m the Problem’s 246,000 equivalent album units earned in the week ending June 5, SEA units comprise 229,000 (down 11%, equaling 298.41 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs — it leads Top Streaming Albums for a third week), album sales comprise 15,500 (down 45% — it falls from No. 1 to No. 3 on Top Album Sales) and TEA units comprise 1,500 (down 17%).

At No. 2 on the Billboard 200, SEVENTEEN scores their seventh top 10-charting album, as SEVENTEEN 5th Album HAPPY BURSTDAY debuts. The set launches with 48,500 equivalent album units earned. Of that sum, album sales comprise 46,000 (it debuts at No. 1 on Top Album Sales), SEA units comprise 2,500 (equaling 3.26 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum. The set’s album sales were aided by its availability across 14 CD variants, all containing collectible paper ephemera, some randomized.

SZA’s chart-topping SOS falls 2-3 on the Billboard 200 with 46,000 equivalent album units earned (down 3%).

Miley Cyrus achieves her 15th top 10-charting set on the Billboard 200 as Something Beautiful bows at No. 4. It starts with 44,000 equivalent album units earned. Of that sum, album sales comprise 27,000 (it debuts at No. 2 on Top Album Sales), SEA units comprise 17,000 (equaling 22.18 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum. (Cyrus’ tally of 15 top 10s is inclusive of her albums billed to her Disney Channel character Hannah Montana.)

Something Beautiful’s first-week sales were bolstered by its availability across six vinyl variants (including one signed, sold in Cyrus’ webstore), a standard CD, a signed CD (exclusive to Cyrus’ webstore) and two deluxe CD boxed sets (sold via her webstore, each containing branded merch and a copy of the album).

The album was preceded by the Billboard Hot 100-charting song “End of the World,” which debuted and peaked at No. 52 in April. It also became a top 20 hit on the Pop Airplay, Adult Pop Airplay and Adult Contemporary charts.

Taylor Swift’s chart-topping reputation rallies 78-5 with 42,000 equivalent album units earned (up 221%). It’s the album’s first week in the top 10 since the Aug. 4, 2018-dated chart (when it ranked at No. 9), the set’s highest rank since the Jan. 27, 2018, chart (when it was No. 5) and its best week by units earned since the Jan. 13, 2018, chart, when it tallied 48,000 (at No. 3). The album debuted at No. 1 on the Dec. 2, 2017-dated chart and spent four nonconsecutive weeks atop the list.

Of reputation’s 42,000 units earned in the latest tracking week, SEA units comprise 27,000 (up 125%, equaling 34.75 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs; it reenters Top Streaming Albums at No. 10), album sales comprise 15,000 (up 1,184%, it reenters Top Album Sales at No. 4) and TEA units comprise less than 500 units. The album rallies up the list following fan support of the project after Swift announced that she had acquired her Big Machine-era catalog, including reputation.

Rounding out the top 10 of the Billboard 200 are five former No. 1s: Wallen’s One Thing at a Time falls 4-6 (40,000; down 3%); Kendrick Lamar’s GNX drops 3-7 (39,000; down 7%); Sabrina Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet dips 6-8 (37,000; though up 1%); PARTYNEXTDOOR and Drake’s $ome $exy $ongs 4 U descends 7-9 (34,000; down 4%); and Bad Bunny’s Debí Tirar Más Fotos falls 8-10 (33,000; down 7%).

With a relatively scant 42% second-week decline in units earned, I’m the Problem tallies the smallest second-week percentage drop for a No. 1-debuting album in more than a year. The last No. 1-debuting set to see a smaller sophomore frame fall, by percentage decline, was 21 Savage’s American Dream on the March 3, 2024-dated chart. It fell 41% in its second week (from 133,000 to 78,000).

Plus, Wallen has three albums in the top 10 at the same time for the first time ever, as I’m the Problem is joined by his former No. 1s One Thing at a Time (No. 4) and Dangerous: The Double Album (No. 10).

Of I’m the Problem’s 286,000 equivalent album units earned in the week ending May 29, SEA units comprise 256,000 (down 28%, equaling 332.89 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs — it leads Top Streaming Albums for a second week), album sales comprise 28,000 (down 79% — it’s No. 1 on Top Album Sales for a second week) and TEA units comprise 2,000 (down 39%).

Nos. 2-8 on the Billboard 200 are all former No. 1s. SZA’s SOS is a non-mover at No. 2 (47,000 equivalent album units earned; up 2%); Kendrick Lamar’s GNX climbs 5-3 (42,000; up 1%); Wallen’s One Thing at a Time is steady at No. 4 (nearly 42,000; down 1%); Playboi Carti’s MUSIC motors 18-5 (41,000; up 57% after a range of deluxe boxed set editions, sold through his webstore, were fulfilled to customers); Sabrina Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet steps 7-6 (36,000; down 3%); PARTYNEXTDOOR and Drake’s $ome $exy $ongs 4 U is up 8-7 (nearly 36,000; down 4%); and Bad Bunny’s Debí Tirar Más Fotos rises 9-8 (35,000; down 3%).

Billie Eilish’s Hit Me Hard and Soft is back in the top 10, moving 11-9, with 31,000 equivalent album units earned (though down 2%).

Wallen’s chart-topping Dangerous: The Double Album rises 12-10 with 30,000 equivalent album units earned (down less than 1%). Wallen has three albums in the top 10 concurrently for the first time ever, as Dangerous joins I’m the Problem (No. 1) and One Thing at a Time (No. 4). Wallen is the second act to log at least three albums in the top 10 at the same time in 2025, following Lamar after his Super Bowl LIX halftime show performance on Feb. 9. On the Feb. 22-dated chart, Lamar was at Nos. 1, 9 and 10 with GNX, DAMN. and good kid, m.A.A.d city, respectively.

Wallen and Lamar are the only living male artists to have had at least three albums in the top 10 at the same time since Herb Alpert on the Dec. 24, 1966-dated chart (when he, along with the Tijuana Brass, had three titles in the top 10). The most recent act, overall, with at least three albums in the top 10 was Taylor Swift on the March 2, 2024, chart, when she had three in the region — she has held at least three albums concurrently in the top 10 of the chart 22 times.

Before Lamar, the last male artist — or anyone aside from Swift — to have at least three albums in the top 10 at the same time was Prince, following his death, in 2016. That year, on the May 14 chart, he logged five titles in the region; and on the May 7 chart, he had three in the top 10. Prince died on April 21, 2016.

It’s the third No. 1 for Wallen on the Billboard 200, following 2023’s One Thing at a Time (19 nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1) and 2021’s Dangerous: The Double Album (10 weeks at No. 1, all consecutive). The latter two titles both debuted at No. 1 and have never left the weekly top 50 of the chart. On the latest chart, One Thing at a Time is a non-mover at No. 4 (making Wallen the only act with two concurrent albums in the weekly top five in 2025), while Dangerous shifts 11-12.

I’m the Problem was officially announced in mid-March, and was preceded by eight charting songs on the Billboard Hot 100 over the past 10 months, all of which reached the top 20 of the ranking, including six top 10s (the most top 10s ever from an album prior to its release). Among them were the No. 1 “Love Somebody,” which debuted atop the list last November, and the album’s title track (No. 2 in February).

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.

Of I’m the Problem’s 493,000 first-week equivalent album units, SEA units comprise 357,000 (equaling 462.63 million on-demand official streams of the set’s 37 tracks; it debuts at No. 1 on Top Streaming Albums), album sales comprise 133,000 (it debuts at No. 1 on Top Album Sales) and TEA units comprise 3,000.

I’m the Problem is the fifth No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in 2025, of 14 total, to also simultaneously be No. 1 on both Top Album Sales and Top Streaming Albums, following Sleep Token’s Even in Arcadia (May 24), Lady Gaga’s MAYHEM (March 22), Kendrick Lamar’s GNX (Feb. 22) and The Weeknd’s Hurry Up Tomorrow (Feb. 15).

I’m the Problem captures 2025’s biggest week by equivalent album units earned. The last bigger week was the opening frame of Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department over a year ago. It bowed at No. 1 with 2.61 million units on the May 4, 2024-dated chart.

With 357,000 SEA units equaling 462.63 million on-demand official streams of I’m the Problem’s 37 tracks, the set logs the largest streaming week of 2025 for any album, and the biggest since The Tortured Poets Department’s first week, which snared 891.37 million. I’m the Problem also tallies the second-biggest streaming week ever for any country album, trailing only the opening week of Wallen’s last album, One Thing at a Time, which bowed with 498.28 million clicks.

Meanwhile, with 133,000 copies sold in its first week, I’m the Problem captures Wallen’s biggest sales week ever, the biggest sales week for any country album in 2025 and the fourth-largest sales frame in 2025 among all albums. The last country set to post a bigger sales week was Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter, when it debuted with 168,000 sold (April 13, 2024-dated chart). I’m the Problem’s sales were helped by its availability on vinyl in its first week. Wallen’s last album, One Thing at a Time, didn’t get its vinyl release until its fourth week on sale.

During its first week, I’m the Problem was available to purchase across five vinyl variants (standard black vinyl, a “first pressing” black vinyl, bone white-colored, coke bottle clear-colored [all exclusively sold in Wallen’s webstore] and a Target-exclusive opaque brown-color edition with a collectible insert), four CD variants (standard, a deluxe boxed set containing a branded T-shirt, a signed CD and a Target-exclusive edition with a collectible insert) and a standard digital download. All variations of the album had the same 37 tracks. All told, of I’m the Problem’s first-week sales, digital downloads comprise 51,000, vinyl comprise 48,000 (Wallen’s best week on vinyl ever, and the largest week for a country album in 2025) and CDs comprise 34,000.

SZA’s chart-topping SOS rises one spot to No. 2 on the latest Billboard 200, earning 47,000 equivalent album units — down 8%.

Jin nabs his highest-charting effort on the Billboard 200 as Echo arrives at No. 3. It’s the second charting solo set for the BTS member, who previously hit the chart with the No. 4-peaking Happy in November 2024.

Echo debuts with 43,000 equivalent album units earned. Of that sum, album sales comprise 35,000 (it debuts at No. 2 on Top Album Sales), SEA units comprise 6,000 (equaling 8.92 million of the album’s tracks) and TEA units comprise 2,000. Echo’s first-week sales were bolstered by its availability across 13 CD variants (all have the standard seven-song tracklist and contain collectible branded paper ephemera) and five download album variants (a standard wide version, a version exclusive to Jin’s webstore containing a bonus voice memo track and three widely available deluxe editions each containing two different remixes of the album’s “Don’t Say You Love Me”).

Nos. 4-9 on the new Billboard 200 are all former No. 1s. Wallen’s One Thing at a Time is steady at No. 4 (42,000 equivalent album units; down 13%); Kendrick Lamar’s GNX rises 7-5 (41,000; down 5%); Sleep Token’s Even in Arcadia falls 1-6 in its second week (38,000; down 70%); Sabrina Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet steps 8-7 (just over 37,000; down 6%); PARTYNEXTDOOR and Drake’s $ome $exy $ongs 4 U drops 5-8 (37,000; down 21%); and Bad Bunny’s Debí Tirar Más Fotos climbs 10-9 (nearly 37,000; down 3%).

The set, which is the English rock band’s major-label debut, bows atop the list dated May 24 with 127,000 equivalent album units earned in the United States in the week ending May 15, according to Luminate — marking the act’s best week by units ever. It’s also the biggest week by units for any rock album in nearly a year, and the biggest for any hard rock album in two years. Further, the set’s streaming numbers are so big that it scores the largest streaming week ever for a hard rock album.

Sleep Token released its first single in 2016 and made its overall Billboard chart debut in 2019. The band previously scored one entry on the Billboard 200 with Take Me Back to Eden in 2023, debuting and peaking at No. 16. That set has earned 819,000 units in the U.S. to date, and its dozen songs (six of which were top 10 hits on Billboard’s Hot Hard Rock Songs chart) have generated 935 million on-demand official streams in the U.S. The band was among Billboard’s year-end top 10 on Top Hard Rock Artists in both 2024 (No. 8) and 2023 (No. 5).

In early 2024, the act signed to RCA Records after previously releasing music on the indie label Spinefarm. The masked band — whose members have remained anonymous through the group’s career — made its debut on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100 songs chart in March with the new album’s “Emergence.” Two more pre-release songs from the set debut on the tally: “Caramel” (a career-best No. 34 high for the band) and “Damocles.”

Sleep Token’s No. 1 debut coincidentally comes just two weeks after another masked hard rock band from Europe, the Swedish act Ghost, landed its first leader with the chart-topping debut of Skeletá (May 10 chart).

Also in the top 10 of the latest Billboard 200, Kali Uchis achieves her third top 10-charting set with the debut of Sincerely, at No. 2.

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.

For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram.

Of Even in Arcadia’s 127,000 first-week equivalent album units, album sales comprise 73,500 (it debuts at No. 1 on Top Album Sales), SEA units comprise 53,000 (equaling 68.89 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs; it debuts at No. 1 on Top Streaming Albums) and TEA units comprise 500. Sales of the album were bolstered by its availability across six vinyl variants, a standard CD, two deluxe CD boxed sets (containing a CD and a branded hoodie) and a standard digital download album. All configurations contained the same 10 songs.

Even in Arcadia is just the fourth No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in 2025, of 13 total, to also simultaneously be No. 1 on both Top Album Sales and Top Streaming Albums, following Lady Gaga’s MAYHEM (March 22), Kendrick Lamar’s GNX (Feb. 22) and The Weeknd’s Hurry Up Tomorrow (Feb. 15).

Prior to Even in Arcadia, the last rock album to have a larger week, by equivalent album units earned, was Zach Bryan’s The Great American Bar Scene, in its first full week of release, with 137,000 units (July 20, 2024-dated chart). The last hard rock album to score a larger week was Metallica’s 72 Seasons, which debuted with 146,000 units on the April 29, 2023 chart.

In terms of streaming numbers, Even in Arcadia posts an eye-popping — and historic — sum for a hard rock set. Its SEA figure of 53,000 equates to 68.89 million on-demand official streams of its 10 songs. That’s the biggest weekly streaming sum for any hard rock album ever. The last rock album overall with a bigger streaming week was The Great American Bar Scene, when it tallied 77.76 million during its fifth week on the chart, dated Aug. 10, 2024.

Even in Arcadia sold 73,500 copies — with vinyl comprising 47,000 of that figure. That’s the largest vinyl sales week for the band, and the biggest for a hard rock album on vinyl in the modern era (since Luminate began tracking sales in 1991). (It trumps the previous record, set only two weeks ago by the debut of Ghost’s Skeletá with 44,000.) It’s also the second-largest sales week in the modern era for a rock album, following the opening week of blink-182’s One More Time… (49,000; Nov. 4, 2023).

With Even in Arcadia debuting at No. 1 just two weeks after another hard rock album was tops — when Skeletá debuted at No. 1 on the May 10 chart — there have been two No. 1 hard rock albums in less than a month. That hasn’t happened in more than a decade. The chart last had two hard rock No. 1s in less than a month’s time nearly a dozen years ago, when Queens of the Stone Age’s …Like Clockwork and Black Sabbath’s 13 debuted at No. 1 in successive weeks (June 22-29, 2013).

Rock and hard rock albums are defined as those that are eligible for, or have charted on, Billboard’s Top Rock Albums and Top Hard Rock Albums charts, respectively.

Finally, Sleep Token is the fifth act in 2025 to score a first No. 1 this year, following Ghost (with Skeletá), Ken Carson (More Chaos), Tate McRae (So Close To What) and PARTYNEXTDOOR (with the Drake collaboration set $ome $exy $ongs 4 U). In all of 2024, there were five acts that got their first No. 1s: Ty Dolla $ign (with the Ye collab Vultures 1), TWICE (With YOU-th), Sabrina Carpenter (Short n’ Sweet), Jelly Roll (Beautifully Broken) and Yeat (Lyfestyle).

Going back another year, there were also five acts in 2023 that got their first No. 1s that year: TOMORROW X TOGETHER (The Name Chapter: TEMPTATION), Karol G (MAÑANA SERÁ BONITO), NewJeans (2nd EP ‘Get Up’), Zach Bryan (Zach Bryan) and ATEEZ (THE WORLD EP.FIN: WILL).

At No. 2 on the Billboard 200, Kali Uchis’ Sincerely, debuts with 62,000 equivalent album units earned. It’s the artist’s third top 10-charting effort, following Orquídeas (No. 2 in 2024) and Red Moon in Venus (No. 4 in 2023). Of the 62,000 units earned, album sales comprise 38,000 (it debuts at No. 2 on Top Album Sales), SEA units comprise 24,000 (equaling 32.45 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs; it debuts at No. 18 on Top Streaming Albums) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum.

The first-week sales of Sincerely, was aided by its availability across 10 vinyl variants (including signed editions), three CD variants (including a signed edition), a cassette and a standard digital download album (all containing the same tracklist), as well as a deluxe download with two bonus tracks.

A trio of former No. 1s is next on the Billboard 200, as SZA’s SOS is steady at No. 3 (51,000 equivalent album units; down 3%), Morgan Wallen’s One Thing at a Time is a non-mover at No. 4 (48,000; up 6%), and PARTYNEXTDOOR and Drake’s $ome $exy $ongs 4 U climbs 7-5 (47,000; up 17% following its vinyl release). Fuerza Regida’s 111XPANTIA falls 2-6 in its second week (just over 43,000; down 43%), while Kendrick Lamar’s chart-topping GNX dips 5-7 (43,000; down 4%), and Sabrina Carpenter’s former leader Short n’ Sweet falls 6-8 (40,000; down 2%).

The Weeknd’s former No. 1 Hurry Up Tomorrow vaults 27-9 with 38,000 equivalent album units earned (up 82%), largely owed to sales generated by the release of new CD and vinyl editions of the album. Rounding out the top 10 of the Billboard 200 is Bad Bunny’s Debí Tirar Más Fotos, which falls 1-10 with 38,000 units (down 55%), a week after it hopped back to the top following its release on vinyl.

Alex Warren has achieved a rare chart feat on the U.K.’s Official Singles Chart with his song “Ordinary” (May 16).
With its ninth week at No. 1, he is now the longest-running U.S. male solo chart-topper in over 70 years, surpassing Elvis Presley in the process. The King had an eight-week stay at the summit in 1960 with “It’s Now or Never,” one of 21 No. 1 singles in the U.K.

Florida-born artist Slim Whitman earned an 11-week stint at the top spot in 1955 with “Rose Marie,” the title track from the 1954 western epic starring Ann Blyth and Howard Keel.

In its 13th week on the Billboard Hot 100, “Ordinary” is now up to No. 2, closely trailing Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s “Luther,” which has had a 12-week stay at the summit. “Ordinary” has also hit the top spot on the Global 200 for a second consecutive week.

Speaking to Billboard in January, Warren discussed using challenging moments in his personal life, including the passing of both of his parents and his stint of homelessness, in his material.

“I recently started doing this thing where I write about those [experiences], and I try to take control in a way,” he said. “For me, something really beautiful is taking something so sad and dark, and what most would view as something that ruined their life, and turn it into something that can help people.”

SOS was originally released on Dec. 9, 2022, as a 23-track album and spent 10 weeks at No. 1 in late 2022 and early 2023. It then returned to No. 1 for two more weeks, following the LANA expansion — on the Jan. 4 and 11, 2025-dated charts, and now on the latest tally. All versions of the album, old and new, are combined for tracking and charting under the title SOS.

With SOS earning 52,000 units in the latest tracking week, that marks the smallest weekly sum for a No. 1 album in over three years, since the April 23, 2022-dated chart, when Lil Durk’s 7220 returned to No. 1, for a second week at the top, with just a little more than 47,000 units.

For the first time in a little over two months, no albums debut in the top 10 on the Billboard 200. We last had a top 10 absent of a debut on the Feb. 22-dated list, when the highest arrival was outside the top 40 (Dream Theater’s Parasomnia at No. 41).

While there are no debuts in the top 10 on the latest chart, there is a title reaching the region for the first time, as Doechii’s Alligator Bites Never Heal flies 24-10 following its wider availability on vinyl, as well as its first release on CD.

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 May 3, 2025-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on April 29.

With a 13th total week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, SOS has the most weeks atop the chart for an R&B/hip-hop album by a woman, or an R&B album by a woman, since Whitney Houston’s self-titled set tallied 14 weeks at No. 1 in 1986. (Honorable mention to the Houston-led soundtrack to The Bodyguard, which logged 20 nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 in 1992-93. The 12-track album has six songs by Houston and six songs by other artists.)

The last R&B/hip-hop album with at least 13 weeks atop the Billboard 200 was Drake’s Views, which notched 13 nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 in 2016 (May 21-Oct. 8). The last R&B album with at least 13 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 was The Bodyguard, with its 20-week reign.

Doechii earns her first top 10-charting effort on the Billboard 200 albums chart as the 2025 Billboard Woman of the Year’s Grammy Award-winning Alligator Bites Never Heal flies 24-10 following a wider availability on vinyl and its first release on CD. The set earned 33,000 equivalent album units in the tracking week (up 43%). Of that figure, SEA units comprise 18,500 (down 3%, equaling 25.9 million on-demand official streams of the songs on the streaming edition of the set, it moves 28-27 on Top Streaming Albums), album sales comprise 14,000 (up 325% — the best sales week for both the album and the artist; it reenters at No. 1 on Top Album Sales, the set’s first week atop the list) and TEA units comprise 500 (down 12%).

Alligator Bites Never Heal was released in 2024 as a 19-song album. It was reissued in March with one bonus track — the gone-viral breakout hit “Anxiety” — on “extended” digital download and streaming editions. All physical versions contain the original 19-song tracklist. Until April 18, the set was only available to purchase as a download and in two vinyl variants. On April 19, it garnered a wider availability on vinyl, including two new vinyl editions (both color variants) exclusively available via Target and Urban Oufitters, along with a widely available CD.

“Anxiety” reached the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart dated March 29 (rising 13-10), marking Doechii’s first top 10. The album yielded an earlier top 40-charting hit with “Denial Is a River” (hitting No. 21 in February).
