The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units, compiled by Luminate. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. The new, Feb. 8, 2025-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on Tuesday (Feb. 4).

Of the 117,000 equivalent album units earned by Debí Tirar Más Fotos in the week ending Jan. 30, SEA units comprise 114,000 (down 22%; equaling 156.18 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs; it’s No. 1 for a fourth week on Top Streaming Albums), album sales comprise 2,500 (down 45%; falling 11-48 on Top Album Sales) and TEA units comprise 500 (down 31%).
SZA’s former leader SOS is a non-mover at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 (87,000 equivalent album units; down 2%) and Kendrick Lamar’s chart-topping GNX rises 4-3 (60,000; up 1%).
Teddy Swims scores his highest-charting album and first top 10, as I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 2) debuts at No. 4. The set earned 50,000 equivalent album units, with album sales comprising 26,000 (it debuts at No. 1 on Top Album Sales), SEA units comprising 23,000 (equaling 30.38 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs; it debuts at No. 17 on Top Streaming Albums) and TEA units totaling 1,000.
The album’s launch of 50,000 marks Swims’ biggest week yet by units earned, while his sales bow of 26,000 is also his best sales week ever. Plus, his streaming start (30.38 million) marks his best streaming week for an album.
The LP is the follow-up to the singer-songwriter’s I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 1), which spawned 2024’s year-end No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, “Lose Control.” That set topped out at No. 17 but has spent 69 weeks on the list (it slips 21-25 on the latest chart).
The new album was preceded by a pair of charting hits on the weekly Hot 100: “Bad Dreams” and “Are You Even Real” (the latter with Giveon).
The first-week sales of the new album were bolstered by its availability across eight vinyl variants (including a signed edition) and two CD variants (including a signed edition).
Morgan Wallen’s former leader One Thing at a Time climbs 8-5 on the latest Billboard 200 (41,000 equivalent album units; up 9%) while Sabrina Carpenter’s chart-topping Short n’ Sweet stays at No. 6 (just over 40,000; down 7%).
Kane Brown achieves his fifth top 10-charting album on the Billboard 200, as The High Road rides in at No. 7 with 40,000 equivalent album units earned. Of that sum, SEA units comprise 20,000 (equaling 26.76 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs; it debuts at No. 21 on Top Streaming Albums), album sales comprise 19,000 (it debuts at No. 2 on Top Album Sales) and TEA units comprise 1,000.
The High Road was preceded by four entries on the Hot Country Songs chart: “I Can Feel It,” “Miles On It” (with Marshmello), “Backseat Driver” and “Gorgeous.”
The album’s first-week sales were aided by its availability across nine vinyl variants (including a signed edition), four CD variants (including a signed edition), and three digital download variants (a standard version, plus two with alternative cover art).
Gracie Abrams’ The Secret of Us falls 5-8 on the latest Billboard 200, with 37,000 equivalent album units earned (down 28%).
Rapper Central Cee scores his first top 10, with his first charting album, as Can’t Rush Greatness bows at No. 9 with nearly 37,000 equivalent album units earned. SEA units comprise 27,000 of that sum (equaling 36.91 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs; it debuts at No. 14 on Top Streaming Albums), album sales comprise 10,000 (debuting at No. 5 on Top Album Sales) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum.
The album was preceded by two charting hits on both Hot Rap Songs and the all-genre Hot 100. On the former, “BAND4BAND” (with Lil Baby) hit No. 4, while “GBP” (featuring 21 Savage) has reached No. 16. On the Hot 100, the tracks hit Nos. 17 and 92, respectively, through the most recently published chart, dated Feb. 1.
Central Cee, who hails from London, scored his first U.S. chart hit with “Doja,” reaching No. 36 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs in 2022. He’s charted a total of seven hits on that ranking, including collabs with Drake, J. Cole and Ice Spice.
Can’t Rush Greatness debuted at No. 1 on the U.K. Official Albums Chart (his second leader there). Central Cee has notched eight top 10-charting hits on the U.K. Official Singles Chart, including the No. 1 “Sprinter” (with Dave). He also recently nabbed three BRIT Award nominations, including artist of the year.
Closing out the latest top 10 on the Billboard 200 is Billie Eilish’s Hit Me Hard and Soft, slipping 9-10 with 36,000 equivalent album units earned (down 2%).
