Billboard 200: Taylor Swift Reigns as ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ Scores Second Week at #1

Published: Sunday 5th May 2024 by Sam

Taylor Swift once again towers tall on the Billboard 200 with her blockbuster album, ‘The Tortured Poets Department.’

For, the LP has nabbed a second week at #1 – and, true to form, it’s with seismic sales.

Full story below…

On this week’s iteration of the coveted count, the project tops the tally with 439,000 equivalent album units in the US.

Though down 83% on the gargantuan 2.61 million units logged in its launch week, Swift’s album delivered higher sales in its second week than the opening sales of any other (non-Swift) release this year.

Thus, ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ makes history by generating the second-biggest second-week sales since Adele’s ’25’ amassed 1.162 million units in its second week in 2015 (down from its 3.482 million premiere).

Swift’s win comes on the heels of single ‘Fortnight’ with Post Malone topping the Billboard Hot 100.

      Haha still better than Beyonces first week. Fatso will die faster from her jealousy of Taylor’s success than diabetes. I feel bad for Beyonce being dragged from your issues.

      Diabetes Unbothered looks like 500 lbs of shhit splitting out of a 400 lb trash bag.

      Taylor’s 2nd week of 439,000 beat Cowboy Cumface’s 407,000 first week sales.
      According to BIllboard, Taylor’s album just passed the 3 million mark after two weeks of availability.

  7. UHoesFunny May 6, 2024

    Even McDonald’s outsells by the end of the week, but that doesn’t mean it’s good for you babe. This spoiled milk is just screaming rigged and payola. Nobody is talking about this album LOL and all the singles are currently free falling from the charts as we speak 😂

    • TheHitisNOTmine May 6, 2024

      Beyonce takes hand-outs and record label foodstamps.

    • Diabetes Amputated May 6, 2024

      Nobody? Lol! You mean in the trashy street where you live. Sales are still better than Beyonce’s first week which is her best in a decade. Hahaha miserable losers be crying from Taylors success. Suck Taylors d*** b******

      • Queenonce May 6, 2024

        Without her may bread power tell me who her fl0p self can outdo. Please lol

      • UHoesFunny May 6, 2024

        Like I said btch, NO ONE is talking about this album. Those sales are clearly rigged with PAYOLA. Sales don’t equate impact or relevancy dummy. If she was important, these songs that “took over” the charts would have staying power. But unfortunately they ALL FALL the following week 😂 the payola package ran out. No press, no news networks, no publication, NOBODY is talking about this album.

    • Bey-A-Culpa May 6, 2024
