The
Billboard 200 chart measures multi-metric album consumption, which includes
traditional album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent
albums (SEA).
'Revenge of the Dreamers III' Debuts at No. 1 on Billboard 200
Albums Chart
Revenge
of the Dreamers III opened at No.1 on the Billboard Top 200 Album Chart (BB200),
earning 115,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. in the week ending
July 11, according to Nielsen Music.
Of
that sum, 23,000
were in album
sales. The multi-act 18-track hip-hop project boasted the Dreamville label’s
roster of acts, including Dreamville chief J. Cole on eight songs.
Top
Country Albums now ranks the most popular country albums of the week, as
compiled by Nielsen Music, based on multi-metric consumption (blending traditional album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA), and streaming equivalent albums (SEA)).
10 digital track sales from an
album = 1 track equivalent album (TEA)
“sale”
1,500 on demand song streams from
an album to one streaming equivalent album (SEA) “sale”.
Nielsen
Music compiles the sales and streaming data. Billboard continues to publish pure album sales charts (subscription to
billboard biz ), exclusively comprising
Nielsen’s sales data.
Again
ranked #2 on Country Album Sales and #33 on all-genre Top Album Sales based
on consumption units Luke Combs with
THIS ONE’S FOR YOU (River House/Columbia Nashville/Sony Music Nashville)
remained at No.1 (#13-15 Billboard 200; 2,500 sales; 110-week total 498,500) to top the summit for a 41st
non-consecutive week.
It
reigned with 22,000 equivalent album units earned (down 11%) in the week
ending July 11, according to Nielsen Music.
The
set ties Garth Brooks’ No Fences, which posted 41 weeks atop the chart starting
in October 1990, as the third-longest-leading album since the list launched in
1964. Just two titles have spent more time at No. 1: Shania Twain’s Come On
Over, which dominated for 50 weeks beginning in November 1997, and Randy
Travis’ Always & Forever, which ruled for 43 weeks starting in June 1987.
Since
its release on June 2, 2017, This One’s for You has earned 2.3 million
equivalent album units, with 499,000 in traditional album sales.
The
set previously made history when Combs became the first artist to send his
first five entries on Country Airplay, all from the album, to No. 1, between
May 2017 and this April: “Hurricane,” “When It Rains It Pours,” “One Number
Away,” “She Got the Best of Me” and “Beautiful Crazy.”

new five-track EP THE PREQUEL (River House/Columbia Nashville/ Sony
Music Nashville) held at No.3 (#29-31 BB200; 14,000 units, down 14% | 1,500 sales; 5-week total 32,500).

Bros./Warner Music Nashville) held at No.2 (#22-28 BB200; 1,100 sales; 55-week total 150,100)
in their 55th frame.
