Morgan Wallen is pulling a Harry Styles on his second consecutive rule at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart.
Wallen just released his album "One Thing At A Time" last Mar. 3, 2023, via Big Loud Records. It debuted at No. 1 after a full tracking week, lynching SZA's "SOS" reign atop the genre-blending albums chart.
Morgan Wallen' One Thing At A Time' Billboard Charts
According to Billboard, Morgan Wallen's third and most recent album, "One Thing At A Time," spends another week at the summit of the Billboard 200 albums chart.
Previously opening at 501,000 album-equivalent units, "One Thing At A Time" has scored a whopping 259,000 equivalent album units, more than half of its debut week numbers. In comparison, it was only a few minutes lower than the debut units of his previous chart-topper, "Dangerous: The Double Album," which launched at 265,000 units.
For 2023, this is the biggest second-week record for an album. The last one to pull this was Taylor Swift with the second-week performance of "Midnights." After launching at more than 1.5 million units, it notched 342,000 album units in its second week.
Meanwhile, Morgan Wallen's second-week lead was also quite monumental as he was the second male act and also the first country male singer who has spent his first two weeks at the No. 1 of the Billboard 200 albums chart since Harry Styles' Grammy-winning album "Harry's House" was released.
