Musician’s album achieves the third-largest week for a country album to date this year
Jelly Roll‘s Beautifully Broken is the number one album in the country, Billboard confirmed on Monday, marking the rapper-turned-country superstar’s first-ever Number One album.
Beautifully Broken finished its debut week with 161,000 equivalent album units — the artist’s best week to date — and 58.86 million streams. The first week was primarily driven by 114,000 album sales. Meanwhile, Rod Wave makes his seventh consecutive appearance in the Top 10, with Last Lap debuting at Number Two with 127,000 equivalent album units earned. Charli XCX‘ Brat bounds up the chart from 14 to the third spot, following the release of the Brat remix on Oct. 11. It earned 105,000 equivalent album units.
This week marks a new career high for Jelly Roll, who hit Number Three last year with his breakthrough album Whitsitt Chapel last year. Beautifully Broken also achieves the third-largest week, by units, for any country album in 2024, following Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter and Post Malone’s F-1 Trillion.
Other than Jelly Roll, Rod Wave, and Charli, Sabrina Carpenter’s previously Number One-charting Short N’ Sweet slips from Number Two to Number Four, while GloRilla’s Glorious bows at Number Five, making it her highest charting album and earning the artist her first Top 10.
With the albums list out, all eyes now turn to the Hot 100, where Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” is a strong contender for yet another week on top. The hit track has taken the Number One spot on the singles chart for the past 14 consecutive weeks.
