In total, I Never Liked You is Future’s 15th top 10 album on the Billboard 200. He previously topped the chart with High Off Life (2020), Future Hndrxx Presents: The WIZRD (2019), HNDRXX (2017), Future (2017), Evol (2016), What a Time to Be Alive (2015) and DS2 (2015).

Also in the new top 10: The Weeknd’s Dawn FM surges 35-2 after the release of its vinyl LP and boxed sets, Miranda Lambert’s Palomino debuts at No. 4, and NoCap’s Mr. Crawford bows at No. 8.

The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units, compiled by Luminate. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. The new May 14, 2022-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on May 10. For all chart news, follow billboard and billboardcharts on both Twitter and Instagram.

Of I Never Like You’s 222,000 equivalent album units earned, SEA units comprise 214,000 (equating to 283.75 million on-demand official streams of the set’s tracks), album sales comprise 6,500 and TEA units comprise 1,500. (I Never Liked You’s standard edition was released on April 29 with 16 tracks, and then expanded in the middle of its first week of release with six additional cuts.)

I Never Liked You’s starting sum of 222,000 units is the largest week for any album since Adele’s 30 logged 288,000 units in the week ending Dec. 2, 2021, and the biggest debut for an album since 30 launched with 839,000 a week earlier. I Never Liked You has the biggest week for any R&B/hip-hop album since Drake’s Certified Lover Boy moved 236,000 in its second frame (week ending Sept. 16, 2021), and the biggest R&B/hip-hop debut since Certified launched with 613,000. In fact, in the last 12 months, only three albums have posted a week as large as I Never Liked You: Certified, Ye’s (formerly Kanye West) Donda (it debuted with 309,000 in the week ending Sept. 2, 2021) and J. Cole’s The Off-Season (debuting with 282,000 in the week ending May 20, 2021).

I Never Liked You boasts guests including Drake, EST Gee, Gunna, Kodak Black, Tems and Ye (all on its standard and expanded editions).

The Weeknd’s Dawn FM jumps from No. 35 to No. 2 — matching its debut and peak position — following the release of its vinyl LP, cassette and deluxe boxed sets on April 29. The album earned 57,000 equivalent album units (up 241%), of which album sales comprise 44,000 (up 2,282% — making it the top-selling album of the week), SEA units comprise 13,000 (equaling 17.72 million on-demand official streams of the set’s tracks) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum. 77% of Dawn FM’s sales were from its vinyl LP, which was available in multiple variants, including a Target-exclusive edition pressed on translucent silver vinyl. In total, Dawn FM sold nearly 34,000 copies on vinyl — the largest sales week for an R&B album on vinyl since Luminate began tracking music sales in 1991.

Morgan Wallen’s former No. 1 Dangerous: The Double Album falls 2-3 with 50,000 equivalent album units (down 3%).

Miranda Lambert notches her seventh top 10 album on the Billboard 200 as Palomino debuts at No. 4 with 36,000 equivalent album units earned. The set is the highest-debuting country album of 2022 and gallops in with the year’s largest debut, by units, for a country effort. Of the album’s 36,000 units earned, album sales comprise 24,000; SEA units comprise 11,000 (equaling 14.35 million on-demand official streams of the set’s tracks) and TEA units comprise 1,000.

A trio of chart-topping albums is next on the Billboard 200, as Olivia Rodrigo’s Sour falls 4-5 (34,000 equivalent album units; down 6%), Lil Durk’s 7220 descends 3-6 (33,000; down 15%) and the Encanto soundtrack dips 5-7 (32,000; down 7%).

NoCap nets his first top 10 effort with his debut studio release Mr. Crawford, as the album debuts at No. 8 with 29,000 equivalent album units earned. Effectively all of that sum was driven by SEA units (equaling 40.07 million on-demand official streams of the set’s tracks). The rapper (real name: Kobe Vidal Crawford) has charted three previous efforts on the chart, going as high as No. 31 with Steel Human in 2020. Before the release of Mr. Crawford, NoCap had accumulated 1.48 billion on-demand official streams with his catalog of songs in the U.S., according to Luminate. The Steel Human album accounted for 332 million of those streams.

Closing out the new top 10 on the Billboard 200 are Drake’s Certified Lover Boy (7-9 with 29,000 equivalent album units; down 4%) and Doja Cat’s Planet Her (6-10 with nearly 29,000; down 5%).

I know we keep praising Morgan Wallen for the crazy top 10 longevity and it's historic and well-earned, but Olivia and Doja's longevity is also wild and historic. are they the longest top 10 runs for a debut album / female (or all genders even) rap album?

Peter, Paul and Mary’s debut spent 84 weeks in the top 10; it maintained momentum with the release of their second and third albums, Moving and In The Wind and subsequently, JFK’s assassination. They were a huge act in the midst of the folk boom…

In the Nielsen era, Alanis Morissette’s Jagged Little Pill spent 72 weeks in the top 10 region. Even though it’s not her global debut, it was her first outside of Canada… that’s fair enough to me.

The Weeknd’s ‘Dawn FM’ Returns to No. 1 on Top Album Sales & Sets Vinyl Record

Plus, six albums debut in the top 10, led by Miranda Lambert's "Palomino." And, Norah Jones' "Come Away With Me" surges in sales after 20th anniversary reissue.

By Keith Caulfield
05/10/2022

The Weeknd’s Dawn FM re-enters Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart (dated May 14) at No. 1 following the album’s release on vinyl, cassette and in boxed set configurations on April 29. It’s the set’s second nonconsecutive week atop the tally; it first reached No. 1 on the Feb. 12-dated chart, after its CD configuration was issued.

Dawn FM sold 44,000 copies in the U.S. in the week ending May 5 (up 2,284%) according to Luminate. Of that sum, nearly 34,000 were vinyl LPs – marking the largest sales week for an R&B album on vinyl since Luminate began tracking music sales in 1991. (R&B albums are defined as those that have hit Billboard’s Top R&B Albums chart.) Previously, Prince’s Welcome 2 America had the largest sales week on vinyl for an R&B album in the Luminate era, with 22,000 sold in its first week (chart dated Aug. 14, 2021).

Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart ranks the top-selling albums of the week based only on traditional album sales. The chart’s history dates back to May 25, 1991, the first week Billboard began tabulating charts with electronically monitored piece count information from SoundScan, now Luminate. Pure album sales were the sole measurement utilized by the Billboard 200 albums chart through the list dated Dec. 6, 2014, after which that chart switched to a methodology that blends album sales with track equivalent album units and streaming equivalent album units. For all chart news, follow billboard and billboardcharts on both Twitter and Instagram.

Dawn FM was initially released on Jan. 7 via streaming services and as a digital download. Its CD edition bowed on Jan. 28 with multiple signed collector’s editions available via The Weeknd’s official webstore, a signed CD sold at independent record stores and a Target-exclusive version with alternate cover art. Then, its vinyl, cassette and deluxe boxed set editions arrived on April 29.

Miranda Lambert’s new studio album Palomino debuts at No. 2 on Top Album Sales with 24,000 copies sold – the largest sales week for a country album in 2022. It’s also her eighth top 10 on Top Album Sales.

Grateful Dead’s Dave’s Picks, Volume 42: Winterland, San Francisco, CA – 2/23/74 debuts at No. 3 on Top Album Sales (22,000 sold). Dave’s Picks is the act’s continuing live archival release series, named for the group’s archivist, David Lemieux, that has been going strong since its first release in 2012.

On the Billboard 200 chart, Dave’s Picks, Vol. 42 debuts at No. 12 – Grateful Dead’s highest debut ever. It also ties 1975’s Blues for Allah as the band’s second-highest charting album. The only album from Grateful Dead to go higher on the list was 1987’s In the Dark, which peaked at No. 6 (Aug. 22, 1987-dated chart).

Dave’s Picks, Vol. 42 also marks Grateful Dead’s 52nd top 40-charting album on the Billboard 200. The band continues to have the most top 40 albums among groups since the chart began regularly publishing on a weekly basis in March of 1956. The acts with the most top 40 albums on the Billboard 200 are: Frank Sinatra (58), Elvis Presley (57), Barbra Streisand (54), Grateful Dead (52) and Bob Dylan (51). (Thirty-four of Grateful Dead’s 51 top 40-charting albums are from the Dave’s Picks series.)

Rammstein’s Zeit starts at No. 4 on Top Album Sales with 17,000 sold – the rock band’s second top 10.

Willie Nelson’s latest, A Beautiful Time, bows at No. 5 with 9,000 sold.

Olivia Rodrigo’s former No. 1 Sour rises 12-6 with 7,000 sold (though down 20%). It jumps up the list despite its decline in sales as the chart adjusts back to normal after Record Store Day. A week ago, the chart was full of Record Store Day specialty releases, and then on the new chart, nearly all fall off the list.

Kehlani’s new Blue Water Road debuts at No. 7 on Top Album Sales with 6,500 and

Future’s I Never Liked You bows at No. 8 with nearly 6,500.

Norah Jones’ chart-topping Come Away With Me re-enters at No. 9 with 6,000 sold (up 4,687%) following its 20th anniversary reissue on April 29. The album, which was released in 2002 and topped the Billboard 200 for four nonconsecutive weeks, was reissued in a variety of formats – some boasting a bevy of bonus tracks. All versions of the album, old and new, are combined for tracking and charting purposes.

Rounding out the new top 10 is Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours, which vaults 37-10 with 5,500 sold (up 3%).

In the week ending May 5, there were 1.826 million albums sold in the U.S. (down 21.4% compared to the previous week). Of that sum, physical albums (CDs, vinyl LPs, cassettes, etc.) comprised 1.42 million (down 26.9%) and digital albums comprised 406,000 (up 5.8%).

There were 669,000 CD albums sold in the week ending May 5 (up 8.6% week-over-week) and 739,000 vinyl albums sold (down 43.8%). Year-to-date CD album sales stand at 11.37 million (down 12.3% compared to the same time frame a year ago) and year-to-date vinyl album sales total 13.406 million (up 4.4%).

Overall year-to-date album sales total 32.220 million (down 7.8% compared to the same year-to-date time frame a year ago). Year-to-date physical album sales stand at 24.946 million (down 3.8%) and digital album sales total 7.275 million (down 19.2%).

Thanks for posting the charts, Gary,

Good to see The Judds compilation debut in the top 100 of the Billboard 200. Red Hot Chili Peppers has this week's biggest dropper, down 113 spots to No. 140. Looking at last week's top 20, two albums drop off from that region after re-entering last week thanks to vinyl sales: Childish Gambino's Kauai and Mariah Carey's #1s.
