\n\tYeat<\/a> lands his first No. 1 album on the Billboard 200<\/a> as Lyfestyle<\/em> debuts atop the list dated Nov. 2. The set earned 89,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. in the week ending Oct. 24, according to Luminate \u2014 his best week ever by units, largely driven by album sales. Lyfestyle<\/em> is the fifth total and consecutive top 10-charting set for the rapper, who had gone as high as No. 2 in March with 2093<\/em>.<\/p>\n \n\tAlso in the new top 10 of the Billboard 200, SEVENTEEN<\/a> snares its sixth top 10 effort, all earned consecutively, as SPILL THE FEELS<\/em> debuts at No. 5. Meanwhile, Gracie Abrams<\/a>\u2019 The Secret of Us<\/em> surges 19-8 following a deluxe reissue with added songs, for its first week in the top 10 since it debuted at No. 2 in July.<\/p>\n \n\tThe 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 Nov. 2, 2024-dated chart will be posted in full on\u00a0Billboard<\/em>\u2018s website on Tuesday (Oct. 29). For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram.<\/p>\n \n\tOf Lyfestyle<\/em>\u2019s 89,000 equivalent album units earned, album sales comprise 60,000 (Yeat\u2019s best sales week ever; it\u2019s No. 2 on the Top Album Sales chart), SEA units comprise 29,000 (equaling 39.67 million on-demand official streams of the songs on the streaming edition of the album; it debuts at No. 17 on the Top Streaming Albums chart) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum.<\/p>\n \n\tLyfestyle<\/em>\u2019s first-week sales were bolstered by its availability across many variants, exclusively sold through the artist\u2019s webstore. Lyfestyle<\/em>\u2019s opening-week sales actually exceed the cumulative sales of Yeat\u2019s entire album catalog before this past week. Until Lyfestyle<\/em>\u2019s release, his catalog of albums had sold a combined 35,000 copies.<\/p>\n \n\tThe new album, his fifth full-length studio effort, was issued as a widely-available 22-track digital download and streaming set, and in a CD and vinyl edition exclusively sold through his webstore. (It\u2019s the first time Yeat has released an album on CD.) The CDs were only available as part of deluxe boxed sets (exclusive to his webstore), and all CDs and vinyls were signed by the artist. There were six different deluxe CD boxed sets, each containing a T-shirt and a CD inside a branded box. There were also three webstore-exclusive CD variants, signed by the artist, and each contained two additional bonus tracks unique to the CD (one has \u201cStyle Lyfe\u201d and \u201cBack Th\u00ebn,\u201d the second has \u201c5Brazy\u201d and \u201cBarbarian\u201d and the third has \u201cGraveyard\u201d and \u201cGon\u00eb\u201d)<\/p>\n \n\tIn addition, Yeat\u2019s webstore offered two exclusive digital download album variants \u2014 one with the bonus track \u201cProject Lyfestyle\u201d and one with four bonus tracks: \u201cProject Lyfestyle,\u201d \u201cFor Lyfe,\u201d \u201cNight Come\u201d and \u201c5Brazy Remix,\u201d featuring Quavo.<\/p>\n \n\tAll of the bonus tracks on the CD and download album variants were not available to purchase as stand-alone tracks through any retailer, nor available to stream through an official service.<\/p>\n \n\tIn total, of Lyfestyle<\/em>\u2019s first-week sales of 60,000, digital downloads comprise 43,500; CD sales comprise 12,000 and vinyl sales comprise 4,500.<\/p>\n \n\tYeat\u2019s last album, 2093<\/em>, which debuted and peaked at No. 2 earlier this year, was available in its first week across three digital download variants, but only one of them was exclusive to the artist\u2019s webstore. 2093<\/em> sold 12,000 copies in its first week \u2014 all from downloads.<\/p>\n \n\tSabrina Carpenter<\/a>\u2019s chart-topping Short n\u2019 Sweet<\/em> climbs 4-2 on the Billboard 200 with 79,000 equivalent album units earned (down 7%). After debuting at No. 1, Jelly Roll<\/a>\u2019s Beautifully Broken<\/em> falls to No. 3 with 68,000 (down 58%). Rod Wave<\/a>\u2019s Last Lap<\/em> dips 2-4 in its second week with 67,000 units (down 47%).<\/p>\n \n\tSEVENTEEN collects its sixth top 10-charting effort on the Billboard 200 as SPILL THE FEELS<\/em> debuts at No. 5 with 66,000 equivalent album units earned. Of that sum, album sales comprise 64,000 (it\u2019s No. 1 on Top Album Sales), SEA units comprise 2,000 (equaling 2.61 million on-demand official streams of the set\u2019s songs) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum. The album\u2019s sales were bolstered by its availability across 17 CD variants, each containing collectible branded paper ephemera (such as photocards, posters, lyric books and stickers, some randomized).<\/p>\n \n\tMorgan Wallen\u2019s former leader One Thing at a Time<\/em> rises 9-6 on the Billboard 200 with 50,000 equivalent album units earned (up 5%), GloRilla\u2019s Glorious<\/em> falls 5-7 in its second week with nearly 50,000 (down 27%), and Gracie Abrams\u2019 The Secret of Us<\/em> surges 19-8 with 49,000 units (up 78%). The latter vaults up the chart, and back into the top 10 for the first time since its No. 2 debut in July, thanks to its Oct. 18 deluxe reissue on digital download and streaming services with seven additional tracks. Of the 49,000 units The Secret of Us<\/em> earned in the latest tracking week, SEA units comprise the bulk of the sum \u2014 a little over 45,000 (up 89%).<\/p>\n \n\tRounding out the top 10 of the new Billboard 200 are Billie Eilish\u2019s Hit Me Hard and Soft<\/em> (falling 7-9 with a little over 48,000 equivalent album units earned; down 4%) and BigXthaPlug\u2019s Take Care<\/em> (8-10 in its second week; with 48,000; up less than 1%).<\/p>\n \n\tLuminate, the independent data provider to the\u00a0<\/em>Billboard\u00a0charts, completes a thorough review of all data submissions used in compiling the weekly chart rankings.
