Jelly Roll has secured his first No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 chart with Beautifully Broken. The album opened with 161,000 equivalent album units, according to data from Luminate, making it the third-highest debut for a country album in the U.S. this year. It follows the releases of Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter and Post Malone’s F-1 Trillion.
The success of Beautifully Broken was largely driven by pure album sales, accounting for 114,000 units. The 28-track album was available in multiple formats, including seven vinyl editions, three CD variants, a cassette tape, and three downloadable versions.
Following Jelly Roll at No. 2 is Rod Wave’s Last Lap, which earned 127,000 equivalent album units. The Florida-born trap-soul rapper achieved this with 173.35 million on-demand streams across the album’s 23 tracks. Last Lap marks Rod Wave’s seventh consecutive top 10 album, maintaining a streak of at least one top 10 entry every year since 2019. The only other artist with a similar achievement from 2019 to 2024 is Taylor Swift.
Charli XCX’s Brat re-entered the top 10 at No. 3 following the release of its deluxe edition, titled Brat and It’s Completely Different but Also Still Brat. Elsewhere on the chart, GloRilla celebrated her first top 10 album with Glorious, debuting at No. 5 with 69,000 equivalent album units.
New releases continued with BigXthaPlug’s Take Care, which debuted at No. 8, earning 48,000 equivalent album units and 62.77 million streams.
The rest of the top 10 includes returning albums like Sabrina Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet, which climbed to No. 4. Morgan Wallen’s One Thing at a Time secured the No. 9 spot, while Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department rounded out the list at No. 10.
