YEONJUN’s debut solo project NO LABELS: PART 01 debuts at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart (dated Nov. 22). The TOMORROW X TOGETHER member’s album sold 27,000 copies in the United States in the week ending Nov. 13, according to Luminate.
Additionally, Hayley Williams, ROSALÍA, sombr, and Wings all arrive in the top 10 with their latest releases.
Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart ranks the top-selling albums of the week based only on traditional album sales. The chart’s history dates back to May 25, 1991, when Billboard began tabulating charts with electronically monitored piece count information from SoundScan, now Luminate. Pure album sales were the sole measurement utilized by the Billboard 200 albums chart through the list dated Dec. 6, 2014, after which that chart switched to a methodology that blends album sales with track equivalent album (TEA) units and streaming equivalent album (SEA) units.
Hayley Williams’ Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party vaults from No. 18 to No. 2 on Top Album Sales following its wide release on physical formats during the tracking week. It sold a little over 22,000 copies — the best sales week ever for a solo project from Williams. ROSALÍA also claims her best sales week, with the No. 3 debut of LUX, selling 19,000 copies.
Taylor Swift’s chart-topping The Life of a Showgirl remains steady at No. 4 with nearly 19,000 copies sold (up 7%), while Stray Kids’ former leader KARMA climbs from No. 7 to No. 5 with 13,000 copies sold (up 39%). The KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack slips from No. 5 to No. 6 with nearly 13,000 copies sold (down 6%).
The physical release of sombr’s I Barely Know Her propels the album to a No. 7 debut with 11,000 copies sold. The album was initially released on Aug. 22 as a digital download and via streaming services.
The new Wings anthology compilation, WINGS, flies in at No. 8 with just over 10,000 copies sold. Tyler, The Creator’s former No. 1 CHROMAKOPIA falls from No. 2 to No. 9 with exactly 10,000 copies sold (down 75%), and Vince Guaraldi Trio’s A Charlie Brown Christmas soundtrack remains steady at No. 10, with 9,000 copies sold (up 37%).
