Future returns to the top spot of Billboard 200. His latest album, "EVOL", has just landed at No. 1 on this week's chart with 134,000 equivalent album units that include 100,000 in pure album sales, according to Nielsen Music.

This is Future's third time to dominate Billboard 200 in less than 7 months. He last topped the list in October with his and Drake's collaborative mixtape, "What a Time to Be Alive". Prior to that, he earned his first-ever No. 1 effort in August with his previous solo album "DS2".

Trailing behind Future is Adele, whose "25" rises one spot to No. 2 with 121,000 units. Last week's first placer, Rihanna's "Anti", is now sitting at No. 3 after collecting 96,000 units in its third week.

At No. 4 is the 2016 Super Bowl halftime headliner Coldplay. Following the band's performance at the big game on February 7, their latest album "A Head Full of Dreams" flies to No. 4 from last week's No. 16 with 90,000 units. Another factor behind the sales jump was the discount on Google Play, where the album's sold for only $99 cent, and on iTunes Store, where it's priced $6.99.

Next on Billboard 200, Justin Bieber's "Purpose" stays at No. 5 with another 73,000 units. Wiz Khalifa's newest set "Khalifa" arrives at No. 6 with 64,000, giving the rapper his fourth top 10 project. He previously visited the region with "Blacc Hollywood" that opened at No. 1 back in 2014.

Behind Wiz is the "Now 57" compilation that debuts at No. 7 with 63,000 units, all of which are in pure album sales. Elton John claims his 19th top 10 effort as his "Wonderful Crazy Night" enters the list at No. 8 with 58,000. Other titles making up this week's top 10 are Twenty One Pilots' "Blurryface" that slips two rungs to No. 9 with 42,000 and Kevin Gates' "Islah" that plunges from No. 2 to No. 10 with 40,000.
