Taylor Swift’s ‘Reputation’ Grabs No. 1 For The Third Week

Browse By

Taylor Swift isn’t letting go of her grip on No. 1.

Her new album, “Reputation” (Big Machine), holds the top spot on the Billboard chart for a third week, with 131,000 copies sold in the United States, according to Nielsen; counting single tracks, it had the equivalent of 147,000 album sales, and in its three weeks “Reputation” has moved the equivalent of 1.6 million copies.

After holding out from streaming for three weeks, Ms. Swift on Friday finally released her album to services including Spotify, Apple Music and Amazon. That may give “Reputation” a second wind on next week’s chart, when it will likely face a challenge from U2’s new album, “Songs of Experience.”

Also this week, Pentatonix’s album “A Pentatonix Christmas,” originally released a year ago, rose three spots to No. 2. Sam Smith’s “The Thrill of It All” is No. 3, and Garth Brooks’s new boxed set “The Anthology Part I: The First Five Years” holds in fourth place.

Ed Sheeran may have been shut out of the top prizes at the Grammy Awards, but his album “÷” rose four spots to No. 5.
