AceShowbiz - As Travis Scott (II) continues hitting the road in support of his latest album "Astroworld", the set has returned to the top spot of Billboard. The record is having its third nonconsecutive week at No. 1 after selling 71,000 copies in the week ending November 29, according to Nielsen Music. Of that sum, 31,000 were in traditional album sales.

"Astroworld" move to No. 1 on this week's chart was largely prompted by the release of more than two dozen merchandise/album bundles through his official website. Each items came bundled with a digital copy of the album. Additionally, Skrillex's remix of its smash single "Sicko Mode" might be aiding to its gain. The remix peaked at No. 2 on Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Also making it to the top five of the new chart is "A Star Is Born" soundtrack, which holds steady at No. 4 with 53,000 units.
