Chart Check [Billboard 200]: Rihanna, Adele, & Justin Bieber Still In Top 5

At this point all we can say is “wow.”

As we’ve reported over the last several weeks, Adele, Justin Bieber, and Rihanna have had a relentless control over the Hot 100 and Billboard 200 since their most recent albums (and singles from those albums) first burst onto the scene.

Addy and Bieber saw their ’25’ and ‘Purpose’ projects respectively released in November 2015 and have not once left the top 5 of the Billboard 200 since.  Similarly, since her first full week of sales, Rih’s latest number – ‘Anti’ – has yet to leave the chart’s highest quintet of positions.

The true test of their staying power was passed when not one, but two impressive debuts landed on charts in the form of Gwen Stefani‘s ‘Truth’ and Jordan Smith‘s ‘Something Beautiful.’ However, despite the sets bowing at #1 and #2 on the refreshed charts, not even the popularity of their respective offerings was enough to oust the trio out of the top 5.

    • Memo April 1, 2016

      Has Beyoncé, the so-called ”album seller”, outsold 21 or 25? That’s the real KIII.

  3. DeeLicious March 31, 2016

    ANTI is a beast!

  4. ♊Mølly♊ March 31, 2016

    Yas at anti slaying 25 (the most overrated album ever)

    I can’t w adele era already dying out yea shes selling albums but where is single #2? It made no impact.

  5. ♊Mølly♊ March 31, 2016

    Omg TGJ do something bout these vids pls.

    • Metzo March 31, 2016

      Lmaoo they literally are stressing tf outta me

  6. Theman March 31, 2016

    Adele is still moving a great amount of albums without another single as of yet. How the heck is her album fading out. You sound stupid. She simply isn’t overexposing herself. A few more singles will be released alongside this great album! Pure sales > streams!

  7. ???Chile, take this “Itty Bitty Piggy” to the market and make sure you hold her hand while crossing the street!??? March 31, 2016

    Who is Jordan Smith? ?

  8. King Mark111 /.\ March 31, 2016

    Who have new music this week? So after Zayn’s album, there’s a chance of Anti returning to #1? Oh the melt down if so.

  9. Weezy Tha Goat/Zayn Is ? March 31, 2016

    Congrats to Gwen and slay Adele.

  10. IStan4Rihanna. March 31, 2016

    So, the week after next, amd unless somebody ‘big’ releases, there is a possible chance that ‘ANTI’ could return to #1? Oh, the mental breakdowns and psychological meltdowns would be a sight to see.

    • rosy3 April 1, 2016

      I know girl I love the new video too anti by far is her best a lot of hits no one listens to critics anymore the fans are the critics of the albums

    • rosy3 April 1, 2016

      They will sure have a meltdown and come with numbers it’s ridiculous how rih keeps them up at night and the sad thing they blame the navy when navy gives them no attention the haters set up fake page posing as navy haters listen up use that energy and get your favorite a number one and stop bullying other artist

  11. IStan4Rihanna. March 31, 2016

    SAMANTHA…

    Fix your fučķíng, cheap-ass, blog.

    What’s with the incessant video spams?

  12. FreshIz421 March 31, 2016

    Congrats to Gwen.. Next week Zayn will top the charts and I expect a surprise within the next few weeks that will take over No. 1

  13. Gee March 31, 2016

    Congrats to all

  14. JanStan March 31, 2016

    Rih SOLD 16000. Adele 51000. Enough said.

    • King Mark111 /.\ April 1, 2016

      And Anti steamed more, making a slot higher than 20bore. No one even comparing them, Pest are clinging to Adele because Beyonce too scared to release her album… Because of Adele.

      • King B April 1, 2016

        Streamed more? It’s not available for streamed. And Rih opted to release Anti after her hype had died, so exactly who is scared?

    • rosy3 April 1, 2016

      She still in top five your point is rih has always been a streaming artist go drink some bleach sound stupid

  15. Adeles flip phone. March 31, 2016

    Lol y’all won’t Adele to flop so bad! Why would Adele need to keep pushing singles when the album is already selling on it’s own and she’s close to going diamond? Adele has a man and a child to look afterwards ( not everybody has that) no matter how many times your mashing your fingers on your boast mobile phone wasting your 2 GB data, those 19 million albums world wide won’t be return

  16. Adeles flip phone. March 31, 2016

    If having a 19 million selling world wide album in 2016 and a multi platnium 10 week single is flopping than sign me up to flop!

  17. Tran anti no honey love time but it okay girl April 1, 2016

    Rihanna still haven’t release Anti album yet is it release on tidal? Does anyone know

  18. Tran anti no honey love time but it okay girl April 1, 2016

    Congrats to Gwen S

  19. Taylor swifts number 1 fan!!! April 1, 2016

    Haha Taylor swifts 1989 at number 19, and still in the top 20, after a year and a half.

  20. killian April 1, 2016

    The real kii is that Taylor swift gal..damn she might have them teeny bops but shes a monster with albums ..i don’t Stan her but she stays slaying..pure album sales + stream wise.congrats

  21. StarXavi April 1, 2016

    Most of you stans sound so dumb and hateful! None of the people you stan for know you exist, yet you resort to horrendous name calling and insults. For what?? Ugh the negativity is so disgusting on this site. Stan wars are so LATE!!

  22. Memo April 1, 2016

    Has Beyoncé, the so-called ”album seller,” outsold 21 or 25??? Answer that question and provide receipts.

    • Jackson Five Nostrils (Tyler) April 1, 2016

      Have any of Rihanna’s albums outsold 25? Have they even done Dangerously in Love numbers? No, they have not. So have a seat.
