With no major new challengers, “SOS,” the sophomore album by the R&B singer-songwriter SZA, holds at No. 1 on Billboard’s chart for a fifth straight week.
Helped by a new music video for SZA’s song “Kill Bill,” inspired by Quentin Tarantino’s pair of films with the same title, “SOS” had the equivalent of 125,000 sales in the United States, unchanged from the week before, according to the tracking service Luminate.
Since it came out, “SOS” has had the equivalent of 876,000 sales, and racked up about 1.1 billion streams. The last title to notch five times at No. 1 was Taylor Swift’s “Midnights,” over a six-week stretch last fall.
“Midnights” holds at second place this week with 81,000 equivalents, followed by Metro Boomin’s “Heroes & Villains” (No. 3), Drake and 21 Savage’s “Her Loss” (No. 4), Bad Bunny’s “Un Verano Sin Ti” (No. 5) and Morgan Wallen’s “Dangerous: The Double Album” (No. 6).
YoungBoy Never Broke Again, the super-prolific Louisiana rapper — he released a studio album, a compilation and six mixtapes last year alone — lands at No. 9 with his latest, “I Rest My Case,” which opened with the equivalent of 29,000 sales, including 40 million streams.
Swift’s “Anti-Hero” holds at No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart, becoming her longest-running No. 1 single.
