Michael Jackson‘s catalog continues to reap the rewards of the massive success of ‘Michael.’
Indeed, while the blockbuster biopic continues its remarkable box office run, audiences are still flocking to the King of Pop’s music in huge numbers.

On the latest Billboard 200, Jackson’s iconic ‘Thriller’ lands at #6 after earning 61,000 equivalent album units during the tracking week.
Meanwhile, his enduring greatest hits collection ‘Number Ones’ follows closely behind at #7 with 56,000 equivalent album units.
Although both projects dipped a spot from last week’s chart, their continued presence inside the chart’s upper tier underscores the lasting impact of the global phenomenon that has become ‘Michael.’
The film has not only become one of the biggest music biopics in history, but it has also reignited interest in Jackson’s legendary catalog across streaming platforms and digital retailers worldwide.
For the new generation, the movie has served as an introduction to one of music’s most influential figures. For longtime fans, it has sparked a renewed appreciation for a catalog that continues to define Pop music decades after its release.
And if the current chart performance is any indication, the post-film boost is showing little sign of slowing down.
