Eminem Tops Album Chart, Ending Taylor Swift's 12-Week Reign
- Eminem's latest album, 'The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce)', has topped the Billboard 200, breaking Taylor Swift's 12-week dominance.
- This success marks every album Eminem has released since 2000 reaching No. 1 on the chart.
- Additionally, Shaboozey has made a comeback on the singles chart.
This week, the Billboard 200 chart has experienced a significant transformation, marking the end of Taylor Swift's impressive 12-week dominance. Four new albums have made their debut in the Top 10, signaling a shift in the musical landscape. Kendrick Lamar's diss track "Not Like Us" reclaimed the No. 1 spot after a lengthy absence, while Shaboozey's "A Bar Song (Tipsy)" returned to the top, reinforcing its status as a contender for "song of the summer." Post Malone's latest release, "I Had Some Help," featuring Morgan Wallen, debuted at No. 10, coinciding with the launch of his new album, *The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce)*. This album has achieved a notable feat by dethroning Swift's *The Tortured Poets Department*, which had set a record for the longest consecutive weeks at No. 1 for a female artist. Swift's album now holds the record for the longest run at the top for any of her releases. In addition to Malone's entry, the South Korean boy band Enhypen made waves with their album *Romance: Untold*, debuting at No. 2, marking their highest position on the Billboard 200. The chart's reshuffling has led to other artists, including Zach Bryan, experiencing a drop in rankings as they make way for these new entries. The Billboard 200 reflects a complex interplay of metrics, including radio airplay, sales, and streaming, showcasing the evolving dynamics of music popularity in today's digital age.
