Meghan Trainor's 'Title' Album Earns Mighty Debut at No. 1 on Billboard 200

Meghan Trainor debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart with her first full-length album, Title. The set arrives with 238,000 equivalent units earned in the week ending Jan. 18, according to Nielsen Music. It was released Jan. 13 on Epic Records.

The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week based on multi-metric consumption, which includes traditional album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA).

Title's chart-topping arrival comes after Trainor earlier led the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart with her introductory hit, "All About That Bass." The tune ruled the Hot 100 for eight consecutive weeks in 2014.

Title's first-week units includes 195,000 in pure album sales, an impressive figure, considering January is traditionally a sleepy month for big new releases. The last album released in January to open with a larger sum was Justin Bieber's Believe: Acoustic, which hit retail on Jan. 29, 2013, and opened with 211,000.

In addition, Title logs the biggest debut for a female artist's first full-length album in over five years. The last woman to start larger was Susan Boyle, who sold 701,000 copies of I Dreamed a Dream in its first week (ending Nov. 29, 2009).

Trainor's entrance is the largest opening for any solo artist's first full-length set in more than three years, since Scotty McCreery's Clear as Day arrived with 197,000 (in the week ending Oct. 9, 2011).

Both Boyle and McCreery had great TV exposure assisting their debuts, as they both competed on talent competition shows before their albums were released. Boyle rose to fame thanks to her star-making turn on Britain's Got Talent, while McCreery won the 2011 season of Fox's American Idol.

As for Trainor, while she wasn't a reality-show competitor, she has had months of major exposure leading up to Title's release. Her smash No. 1 single "All About That Bass" debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 dated July 26, 2014, on its way to an eight-week reign atop the list. In the meantime, Trainor's introductory four-song EP -- also named Title -- was percolating on the Billboard 200 chart. The set debuted and peaked at No. 15 and has sold 171,000 copies.

Trainor followed up the success of "All About That Bass'" with another top five single, the No. 4-peaking (so far) "Lips Are Movin.'" (While both "Bass" and "Lips" are on the full-length Title album, only "Bass" appeared on the EP.)

Lastly, Title is Epic Records' first No. 1 album since the Sept. 25, 2010-dated chart, when Sara Bareilles' Kaleidoscope Heart bowed atop the tally.

If Trainor is No. 1, that means Taylor Swift's rule in the penthouse with 1989 is over -- at least temporarily. 1989 slips 2-1 in its 12th week on the list, after hanging out at No. 1 for eight nonconsecutive weeks. It shifted 131,000 units for the week (down 15 percent).

Kidz Bop Kids warble their way to a No. 3 arrival on the Billboard 200 with Kidz Bop 27, moving 80,000 units. It's the 20th top 10 album for the long-running series, which garnered its first top 10 effort nearly 10 years ago, when Kidz Bop 7 opened at No. 7 on the March 12, 2005-dated chart.

As usual, the new Kidz Bop 27 album features child-friendly covers of contemporary pop hits, like Swift's "Shake It Off" and Trainor's "All About That Bass."

Notably, of Kidz Bop 27's first-week units, just over 77,000 were comprised of pure album sales. That's the largest sales week for a Kidz Bop album in two years. The last Kidz Bop set to post a bigger week was Kidz Bop 23, when it entered at No. 2 with 81,000 copies sold (on the chart dated Feb. 2, 2013).

Ed Sheeran's x slips 2-4 on the Billboard 200 with 77,000 units, up 2 percent. Of x's total for the week, 47 percent of its sum was comprised of pure album sales.

Next up on the Billboard 200, producer Mark Ronson -- powered by his smash No. 1 Hot 100 hit "Uptown Funk!" -- arrives at No. 5 with his album Uptown Special. The set starts with 77,000 units and marks Ronson's first top 40 album. (He previously topped out at No. 81 with 2010's Record Collection, and No. 129 with 2007's Version.)

Uptown Special's chart rank is bolstered by units earned from TEA and SEA, thanks to "Uptown Funk!," featuring Bruno Mars. Sixty-one percent of the set's opening-unit total is driven by TEA and SEA. (The album enters at No. 6 on the Top Album Sales chart, which ranks the week's top selling albums.)

Back on the Billboard 200, Nicki Minaj's The Pinkprint falls 3-6 (54,000 units; down 10 percent) and Sam Smith's In the Lonely Hour descends 4-7 (50,000 units; down 12 percent).

Maroon 5's V zooms back into the top 10, rising 15-8, thanks in part to the success of its single "Sugar." The song's wedding-crasher-themed video went viral last week, helping spur the album to a 138 percent unit gain (to 48,000 for the week). V's album sales were also on the rise, jumping by 158 percent to 19,000 (zipping 27-12 on Top Album Sales). Also helping matters: The album is sale priced in the iTunes Store for $7.99, which encouraged its 314 percent climb in downloads for the week (up to 14,000 -- re-entering at No. 11 on Digital Albums).

Hozier's self-titled album moves 6-9 on the Billboard 200 with 42,000 units (down 15 percent), while J. Cole's 2014 Forest Hills Drive closes out the top 10, falling 7-10 with 38,000 units (down 16 percent).

Meghan Trainor's Debut Album Arrives at #1

Paul Grein, Yahoo! Chart Watch | January 21, 2015

Four months after Meghan Trainor's debut single, “All About That Bass,” reached #1 on Billboard's Hot 100, her debut album, Title, enters The Billboard 200 album chart at #1. Trainor is the first artist in nearly five years to reach #1 with both his/her first single and his/her first album. Just two other artists have achieved this feat so far in the 2010s. Ke$ha scored in January 2010 with “TiK ToK” (her first single as a lead artist) and Animal. B.o.B followed suit in May 2010 with “Nothin’ on You” (featuring Bruno Mars) and B.o.B Presents: The Adventures Of Bobby Ray.

Title moved 238K “equivalent units” this week (which includes 195K in actual album sales). (The rest of the tally reflects digital track sales and streaming activity.) That 195K sales tally is the highest first-week sales tally for a debut album since 5 Seconds of Summer's first full-length album opened in July with 259K. It's the highest for a debut album by a female artist since Nicki Minaj's Pink Friday bowed in November 2010 with 375K.

Title has spawned back-to-back top five hits on the Hot 100. “All About That Bass” logged eight weeks at #1 (and received Grammy nominations for Record and Song of the Year). “Lips Are Movin’” has climbed as high as #4.

Title is one of the most minimalist album titles in pop history. It echoes the titles of Filter's 1999 album Title of Record and deadmau5's 2012 album > album title goes here <.

Title knocks Taylor Swift's 1989 out of the #1 spot. This marks the first time that female solo artists have appeared at #1 back-to-back on this chart since late 2012, when Rihanna's Unapologetic, Alicia Keys' Girl on Fire and Swift’s Red were #1 in successive weeks. (The Fine Print: I didn’t count the Tony Bennett/Lady Gaga collabo Cheek To Cheek as an album by a female solo artist, because it was as much his album as hers. It was #1 in September 2014 back-to-back with Barbra Streisand's Partners.)

1989 dips from #1 to #2 in its 12th week. It has spent nine weeks on top. It moved 131K “equivalent units” this week (which includes 92K in actual album sales). 1989 reaches the 4 million mark in (actual) U.S. sales in this, its 12th week. That’s the fastest that any album has reached 4M since Usher's Confessions in 2004. I wrote about this in a blog we posted on Friday. If you missed it, here’s a link.

Kidz Bop Kids' Kidz Bop 27 debuts at #3. This is the 20th Kidz Bop album to make the top 10. It’s the 14th Kidz Bop album (and the 10th in a row) to make the top five. It moved 80K units this week (which includes 77K in actual album sales).

Ed Sheeran's x drops from #2 to #4 in its 30th week. The album, whichdebuted at #1 in June, moved 77K units this week (which includes 36K in actual album sales). (Sheeran also has this week’s #1 Catalog Album. His 2011 debut album, +, inches up from #48 to #47 in its 127th chart week. This is its second week at #1 on Top Catalog Albums. It first topped that chart nearly one year ago.)

Mark Ronson's fourth studio album, Uptown Special, debuts at #5. This tops the debut position of Amy Winehouse's Back to Black, which Ronson co-produced. That album debuted at #7 in March 2007. It peaked at #2 in March 2008, the week after the Grammys, where Winehouse won five awards and Ronson won three. It returned to the top 10 for two additional weeks following Winehouse’s death in July 2011. Uptown Special moved 77K units this week (which includes 30K in actual album sales).

Nicki Minaj's The Pinkprint, which debuted and peaked at #2, drops from #3 to #6 in its fifth week.The album moved 54K units this week (which includes 30K in actual album sales).

Sam Smith's In the Lonely Hour, which has climbed as high as #2, drops from #4 to #7 in its 31st week. The album moved 50K units this week (which includes 28K in actual album sales).

Maroon 5's V, which debuted at #1 in September, rebounds from #15 to #8 in its 20th week. The album moved 48K units this week (which includes 19K in actual album sales). Look for the group’s new single, “Sugar,” to be the top new entry on this week’s Hot 100.

Hozier's Hozier, which debuted and peaked at #2 in October, drops from #6 to #9 in its 15th week. The album moved 42K units this week (which includes 18K in actual album sales).

J. Cole's 2014 Forest Hills Drive, which debuted at #1 last month, drops from #7 to #10 in its sixth week. The album has had a longer run in the top 10 than either of Cole’s previous albums. The new album moved 38K units this week (which includes 28K in actual album sales).

Ella Henderson's debut album, Chapter One, debuts at #11. The album reached #1 on the U.K.’s Official Albums Chart in October. The title song is a current top 30 hit on the Hot 100.

Jazmine Sullivan's third studio album, Reality Show, debuts at #12. It’s her third album in a row to crack the top 15.

Sam Hunt's first full-length album, Montevallo, which debuted and peaked at #3 in November, dips from #12 to #13 its 12th week. It logs its third week at #1 on Top Country Albums. That’s the longest run at #1 on this chart for a debut album by a male solo artist since Scotty McCreery's Clear as Day spent six weeks on top in 2011.

Guardians of the Galaxy: Awesome Mix, Vol. 1, which spent two weeks at #1 in August,drops from #8 to #14 in its 25th week. This is the 61st consecutive week that at least one soundtrack has appeared in the top 20. Guardians holds at #1 on Top Soundtracks for the 16th week.

Coming Attractions: Fall Out Boy's American Beauty/American Psycho is set to debut at #1 next week (220K in overall consumption/190K in actual sales). Also due: Joey Bada$$'s B4.DA.$$ (55K/50K), Marilyn Manson's The Pale Emperor (45K/40K), the Decemberists'sWhat a Terrible World, What a Beautiful World (45K/40K), Grammy Nominees 2015 (40K/40K) and Lupe Fiasco's Tetsuo & Youth (35K/30K).

Metal album sales that uses the Current Albums chart

www.metalinsider.net/columns/metal-by-numbers/metal-by-numbers-121-we-heart-sylosis

Notable Debuts:

Sylosis, Dormant Heart (Nuclear Blast) #155, 1,725 sold

After making waves with 2012’s Monolith, Sylosis continue to push forward with album number four, which has earned them their highest debut yet.

Notable Sales:

AC/DC, Rock or Bust (Columbia) #26, 10,500 sold

A 10% drop doesn’t knock this off its rocker.

Foo Fighters, Sonic Highways (RCA) #42, 5,575 sold

A drop of 19%.

Slipknot, .5: The Grey Chapter (Roadrunner) #73, 3,550 sold

In case you missed it, Slipknot will be coming around again with Hatebreed.

I Prevail, Heart Vs. Mind (Self-Released) #102, 2,800 sold

This dropped by 52% after last week’s massive sales, but it’s still impressive for an EP that doesn’t even have the Taylor Swift cover on it (which itself dropped by 50% this week on the singles chart).

In This Moment, Black Widow (Atlantic) #125, 2,425 sold

Just under 80,000 sold. Also, it sold more copies this week than the Coldplay album did, so there, Chris Martin!

Five Finger Death Punch, The Wrong Side of Heaven and the Righteous Side of Hell Vol. 1 (Prospect Park) #135, 2,125 sold

A slight boost of 7% puts this about 35,000 copies away from being another gold record.

The Pretty Reckless, Going To Hell (Razor & Tie) #153, 1,775 sold

A lucky boost of 13%.

Linkin Park, The Hunting Party (Warner Bros.) #160, 1,700 sold

This sold the same amount as last week, which isn’t going to help Chester Bennington’s ankle heal any faster.

Godsmack, 1000hp (Universal Republic) #165, 1,675 sold

Just under 175,000 sold.

Seether, Isolate & Medicate (The Bicycle Music Company) #170, 1,650 sold

Fun fact: the last time we posted a story that mentioned Seether that wasn’t MBN related was in July 2014. So take that how you will.

Various Artists, Punk Goes Pop, Vol. 6 (Fearless) #173, 1,625 sold

Fun fact: the last time we enjoyed listening to this was never ago.

Avenged Sevenfold, Hail To The King (Warner Bros.) #197, 1,435 sold

This dropped off briefly last week.

Slash Featuring Myles Kennedy and The Conspirators, World On Fire (Dik Hayd) #198, 1,425 sold

Over 80,000 sold.

Wow, exciting that 1989 maybe able to pull off 5 million! It seems like it took Red forever to reach 4 million.

At the rate it's going, 5 million is more of a matter of when, not if.

Billboard 200 Chart Moves: Taylor Swift's '1989' Hits 4 Million in U.S. Sales
By Keith Caulfield | January 23, 2015 9:35 PM EST

Let's take a closer look at some of the action on the chart:

-- Taylor Swift, 1989 - No. 2 -- Taylor Swift's 1989 sold its 4 millionth copy in the week ending Jan. 18, as the set's cumulative sales rose to 4,036,000 in the week. (It sold an addition 92,000 copies in the frame ending Jan. 18.) Each of Swift's five full-length studio albums have now sold at least 4 million. Her biggest seller is 2008's Fearless (6.9 million), followed by her self-titled debut (5.5 million), 2010's Speak Now (4.5 million), Red (4.1 million) and then 1989. In total, Swift has sold 27.1 million albums in the U.S.

1989 is the first album to sell 4 million copies since Swift herself did it almost exactly a year ago with a different album. In the week ending Feb. 23, 2014, Swift's previous release, Red, crossed the 4 million mark.

-- Ella Henderson, Chapter One - No. 11 -- Led by her hit single "Ghost," the British singer's debut album arrives at No. 11 with 33,000 units. "Ghost," meanwhile, jumps 28-22 (a new peak) on the Billboard Hot 100 and also rises 16-15 on the Pop Songs airplay chart. (Listen to an interview with Henderson on the Pop Shop Podcast, below.)

-- RaeLynn, Me (EP) - No. 20 -- The former The Voice contestant takes a bow at No. 20 with her first album, starting with 9,000 units. It also enters at No. 7 on Top Country Albums, powered by 5,000 in traditional sales. RaeLynn made a splash on the Hot Country Songs chart in December with "God Made Girls," scaling to No. 7 on the list.

-- Sam Hunt, Montevallo - No. 13 -- The rising star's album profits from sale pricing and promotion in the iTunes Store, where it was discounted to $7.99 during the week. In turn, it earns a 15 percent rise in overall units, and a 28 percent jump in album sales. (Though it does gain, the album is pushed down one position on the chart to No. 13.) Other country albums that see gains thanks to the iTunes promotion: Chase Rice's Ignite the Night (115-63 with 8,000 units, up 40 percent) and Brett Eldredge's Bring You Back (134-116 with 5,000 units, up 7 percent).

-- Pearl Jam, Ten – No. 157 -- In addition to a promotion touting country albums (see above), the iTunes Store also hyped alternative releases like Pearl Jam's Ten. The classic title was on sale for just $6.99 and returns to the chart at No. 157 with just over 4,000 units (up 60 percent).

-- Donny Osmond, The Soundtrack of My Life – No. 181 -- Veteran pop star Donny Osmond collects his 16th charting solo album with this new mostly-covers set The Soundtrack of My Life. The album, which starts at No. 181 with 4,000 units, includes Osmond's interpretations of The Supremes' "Baby Love," Stevie Wonder's "My Cherie Amour" (with Wonder) and The Beatles' "The Long and Winding Road." Osmond has also earned seven entries with his sister Marie Osmond.

Wow, so in 3 months, Taylor Swift already outsold Red with 1989? Damn. And Red was huge...

[areyoureadytojump]

True - so 3 months and 2 weeks...

[brady47]

Fearless - 58 weeks in the top 10/ 73 weeks in the Top 20
Speak Now - 15 weeks in the top 10/ 21 weeks in the Top 20
Red - 17 weeks in the top 10/ 22 weeks in the Top 20
1989- 11 weeks in the top 10 & counting

I have a feeling 1989 will have a lot more longevity in the top 10/20 compared to Red & Speak Now, probably won't come close to the longevity of Fearless, but you never know!
