Taylor Swift Earns The Biggest Second Week For Any Album In Nearly A Decade
Taylor Swift continues to dominate the Billboard 200 this week with her latest release, The Tortured Poets Department. The album recently scored a monumental launch on the ranking of the most-consumed full-lengths in the U.S., securing the second-largest debut of all time. Given its impressive start, it’s no surprise that the album maintains its hold on the top spot for more than a single stint.
In its second week on the chart, The Tortured Poets Department faced little competition for the No. 1 position. It maintains its stronghold with a remarkable performance, marking the biggest second week for an album in nearly a decade.
Swift’s album manages to shift another 439,000 equivalent units in its second full tracking week, according to Billboard. That sum marks the most impressive second week for any album since 2015.
