AceShowbiz - The Weeknd has done it again! With the release of "Hurry Up Tomorrow," the Canadian singer-songwriter secured his fifth No. 1 debut on Billboard 200. The album moved an impressive 490,500 equivalent album units in the week ending February 6, according to Luminate, making it the biggest debut week since Taylor Swift's "The Tortured Poets Department" took the top spot in May of last year with 2.61 million units.
The album's launch was bolstered by the previously Billboard Hot 100-charting singles "Timeless" (featuring Playboi Carti) and "Sao Paulo" (featuring Anitta). On the Grammy stage, The Weeknd performed "Cry for Me" and "Timeless," further boosting the album's exposure and subsequent success.
In the latest top 10 of the Billboard 200, Chappell Roan's "The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess" surged from 14th to 6th place while Billie Eilish's "Hit Me Hard and Soft" jumped from 10th to 5th, both buoyed by their performances and wins at the Grammy Awards.
Meanwhile, Bad Bunny's "Debí Tirar Más Fotos" fell to second place, SZA's "SOS" slipped to third, while Kendrick Lamar's "GNX" dipped to fourth. The other albums in the top 10 include Morgan Wallen's "One Thing at a Time" at No. 8, Taylor Swift's "The Tortured Poets Department" at No. 9, and Gracie Abrams' "The Secret of Us" at No. 10.
