Taylor Swift's "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)" is the biggest album of the year after its first-week commercial performance. In its second week, Swift's third re-recorded album has again prevailed.
Meanwhile, the Billboard 200 Top 10 chart was described this week as a "quiet" one as this was the first time in more than five months that the Billboard 200 Top 10 did not have any debuts.

According to Billboard, Taylor Swift's "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)" maintained its lead at the Billboard 200 charts. Notably, this is the first time that a re-recorded version of Taylor Swift's albums has spent its second week at the top spot.
Apparently, all of his two previous albums, "Fearless" and "Red" bowed on the second spot on the following week of its debut week.
Luminate, the data cruncher of Billboard, reports that "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)" has amassed 121,000 album-equivalent units this week. Among those numbers, 73,000 comprised streaming units (which translates to 95.6 million streams), while 47,000 are pure sales, and 1,000 for track units.
Aside from that feat, this was the second week that Taylor Swift has had four albums on the Billboard 200 Top 10, and any artist in general on the chart's history. Last week, he also pulled the same feat for being the first artist to achieve the said accomplishment.

As "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)" leads the pack, "Midnights" rose to No. 4, while "Lover" advances to No. 6, and "Folklore" stood strong at No. 10.
Morgan Wallen, on the other hand, spends a second week at No. 2 after being trumped by Swift last week. However, his numbers are still performing well with 105,000 album equivalent units. Despite this, Wallen achieved a major stride in his career after extending his own record of an album with the most weeks to have generated 100,000 units since the chart's decision to start sorting by units in 2014.
Taylor Swift Leads A 'Quiet' Billboard 200

Peso Pluma's "Genesis" returns to its highest position at No. 3, while Wallen's "Dangerous: The Double Album," bounced back to No. 5, SZA's "SOS" climbs back to No. 7, while Lil Uzi Vert's No. 1 album "Pink Tape," had a freefall from No. 3 to No. 8.
