Taylor Swift leaves Billboard top spot after record; find out who took over

The singer Taylor Swift No Longer Tops Billboard 200 Chart the main album chart in the United States. She topped the list for 12 consecutive weeks with his latest album, the “The Tortured Poets Department” .

Last week, as reported on Sunday (21) by the North American magazine, the voice of “Fortnight” and “Blank Space” was dethroned by the release of “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce)”, the new album by rapper Eminem. The album reached the mark of 281 thousand equivalent units, a measure used by Billboard to quantify physical sales and reproductions on streaming; Taylor’s album, in turn, reached 82 thousand.

In addition to Eminem, ENHYPEN with “Romance: Untold” and Zach Bryan with “The Great American Bar Scene” also surpassed the North American singer.

Taylor Swift’s fall from the top of the Billboard 200 prevents her from setting a new record on the magazine’s chart: she would be the owner of the only album to spend 13 consecutive weeks at number one after its debut. She still holds the record, but shares the mark with Morgan Wallen’s “One Thing at a Time” and Stevie Wonder’s “Songs in the Key of Life.”

Eminem’s new album

“The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce)” arrived on music platforms on June 12th and marked the end of a four-year hiatus without a new album.

“The Death of Slim Shady” revisits the rapper’s Slim Shady alter ego on his 12th studio album. In the 2000s, the character appeared on the single “The Real Slim Shady” from the album “The Slim Shady LP”.

On his Instagram profile, Eminem said that “The Death of Slim Shady” is a “concept” album. “So if you listen to the songs out of order, they may not make sense,” the rapper wrote.

The album contains 19 tracks, including collaborations with Big Sean and Babytron. Among the songs is the single “Houdini” which debuted at number two on the Billboard Hot 100.
