The singer Taylor Swift 34, releases his latest album, “Tortured Poets Department”, at the top of the charts Billboard 200 for the 15th non-consecutive week. With this, the pop star ties with the singer Carole King in relation to the classic album “Tapestry” (1971). The passage of the 13th week, in fact, had not happened since the release of “21”, by the artist Adele, in 2011.
Taylor Swift and Carole King occupy the third position in the ranking of most weeks at number one among albums by female artists. The artists’ albums “lose” only to “21”, by Adele (24 weeks), and to soundtrack of the movie “The Bodyguard” led by singer Whitney Houston (20 weeks).
The album released in April this year spent its first 12 weeks in first place, and was even overtaken by Eminem’s new work, entitled “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce)” on July 22. He returned to the top two weeks later.
“The Tortured Poets Department” is the 11th album released by Taylor Swift in her career. With the album, the star broke several records in the industry.
