Toby Keith Hits A Chart Milestone For The First Time More Than A Year Following His Passing
Toby Keith's 35 Biggest Hits reaches 208 weeks on the Billboard 200, making it the country legend's ... More first album to spend four full years on the chart. NORMAN, OK - JULY 06: Musician Toby Keith performs during the Oklahoma Twister Relief Concert to benefit United Way of Central Oklahoma May Tornadoes Relief Fund at Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial Stadium on July 6, 2013 in Norman, Oklahoma. To donate go to or text REBUILD to 52000. (Photo byfor Shock Ink) Last week was a significant one for Toby Keith on the Billboard charts. The late country superstar returned to multiple tallies with "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue (The Angry American)," which surges in popularity around the Fourth of July every year. The track's patriotic comeback has become even more pronounced since his passing in early 2024, but that one frame isn't the only time of year when Keith's music reaches new milestones or enjoys a special amount of attention. Toby Keith's 35 Biggest Hits Reaches a Landmark Keith's 35 Biggest Hits is still present on a pair of Billboard rankings this week, though it descends on both after soaring previously, thanks largely to consumption of "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue (The Angry American)." Last week, the country musician's compilation lived inside the top 10 on the Billboard 200. This frame, it dips from No. 9 to No. 59. The length of time that the hits-packed project has spent on the most competitive albums roster in America is what's notable at the moment, as 35 Biggest Hits reaches 208 weeks on the Billboard 200. The project is Keith's first to make it to four full years as one of the biggest albums or EPs in the United States. Toby Keith's Longest-Charting Album by a Wide Margin 35 Biggest Hits has ranked as Keith's longest-charting album in America for some time. Every frame it holds on the Billboard 200, it extends its lead within his catalog. Greatest Hits 2 lags behind by more than 100 weeks, though it remains his second longest-charting title, followed closely by Unleashed, which has spent exactly two years on the tally. Consumption of Toby Keith's Music Falls Luminate reports that in the past tracking period, consumption of 35 Biggest Hits dropped more than 44%. The compilation shifted 14,700 equivalent units in the most recent week, which is down nearly 22,000 units from the period prior. That sum is still enough to ensure the collection only slips just outside the top 10 on the Top Country Albums list, dipping from No. 4 to No. 11, while sliding backward 50 spaces on the Billboard 200.

Post Malone's Album Doubles Its Consumption And Climbs The Charts
Post Malone's The Diamond Collection climbs the Billboard 200 and multiple genre charts, while ... More Hollywood's Bleeding and Beerbongs & Bentleys fall away. INDIO, CALIFORNIA - APRIL 20: (FOR EDITORIAL USE ONLY) Singer Post Malone performs onstage during weekend 2, day 3 of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival April 20, 2025 in Indio, California. (Photo byfor Coachella) Last week, Post Malone occupied four spaces on the Billboard 200, the most important albums chart in the United States, which attempts to paint a clear picture of what Americans are listening to. This frame, the multi-genre superstar claims only half as many spots on the tally. While he loses ground in terms of quantity, one of his collections rockets upward, thanks not necessarily to a massive increase in streams or sales, but largely due to how Billboard compiles its rankings. Post Malone's Big Week on the Charts The Diamond Collection is having a big week on the charts in the U.S. The compilation, which gathers Malone's diamond-certified singles, along with a handful of fan favorites, reappears on both the Top Rap Albums and Top Streaming Albums charts. It lands at Nos. 4 and 21, respectively, while also soaring on two additional tallies. The singles-packed set jumps from No. 43 to No. 8 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums ranking and rockets from No. 152 to No. 28 on the Billboard 200. Hollywood's Bleeding and Beerbongs & Bentleys Disappear Just days ago, Malone's Hollywood's Bleeding and Beerbongs & Bentleys were also present on the Billboard 200, but now they're nowhere to be found. It appears that all the consumption of those titles — or, more appropriately, the songs featured on them — was funneled back toward The Diamond Collection. This occurs from time to time, resulting in one title (or several) falling off the tally while another gains considerable ground within a single frame. Billboard allows for streams and sales of individual tracks to be counted toward either the original albums or any compilations they appear on. Sometimes, all that activity benefits multiple projects. In other instances, just the full-length on which the tracks originally appeared sees a bump, while in cases like this week, a later compilation reaps the rewards. Since The Diamond Collection includes so many of Malone's biggest hits, it's not unusual to see it appear on the charts, surging one week, dipping precipitously the next, then rebounding once again, depending on a variety of factors. F-1 Trillion Holds On Again In addition to The Diamond Collection, Malone appears on three charts with F-1 Trillion, his first foray into country music. That set, which is nearing its one-year anniversary on the rankings, dips on both the Billboard 200 and Top Streaming Albums chart, falling to Nos. 33 and 28, respectively. It does, however, rise slightly to No. 5 on the Top Country Albums roster. The Diamond Collection Jumps More Than 100% Luminate reports that during the latest tracking frame, The Diamond Collection shifted 19,600 equivalent units. That figure is up more than 103% from the prior period, when it moved just 9,600 units. The compilation sold fewer than 150 copies, so streaming activity and the reassignment of plays from other Malone collections largely helps push it significantly higher.

Justin Bieber Pushes Chris Brown Out Of A Historic Top 10
Swag brings Bieber 16 Hot 100 debuts and a No. 2 Billboard 200 start, as 'Daisies' comes close to ... More topping the chart and Bieber edges past Chris Brown. TORONTO, ONTARIO - FEBRUARY 01: Justin Bieber participates in the Tim Horton's NHL All-Star Player Draft at Scotiabank Arena on February 01, 2024 in Toronto, Ontario. (Photo by Dave Sandford/NHLI via Getty Images) Justin Bieber's surprise album Swag might not debut at No. 1 on several Billboard rankings the pop star was hoping to conquer, but that doesn't mean the project isn't successful. The surprise release opens in the runner-up spot on the Billboard 200, coming in behind JackBoys 2, the latest full-length from Travis Scott and his group JackBoys. While Swag's starting position might be slightly disappointing for Bieber, the collection produces more than a dozen new hits on the Hot 100. As the Canadian singer-songwriter ups his career total, he joins some elite company and passes one of the most successful R&B artists of all time. 16 New Hot 100 Hits 16 of the 21 tracks featured on Swag debut on the Hot 100 this week. None of the tunes were released ahead of the album's arrival, and some weren't eligible as they were either too short or spoken word interludes. With 16 new hits to his credit, Bieber lifts his career count to 121 Hot 100 smashes. Justin Bieber Passes Chris Brown Thanks to this influx of new wins, Bieber jumps into the top 10 on the list of artists with the most Hot 100 hits. He narrowly edges past Chris Brown, who currently claims 119 appearances, though these figures are known to shift regularly, and the R&B powerhouse could snag new placements on the tally at any point. Justin Bieber and Travis Scott Advance Together At the same time Bieber increases his career total, Travis Scott does the same. Several cuts featured on JackBoys 2 debut on the Hot 100, giving Scott a total of 131 career appearances. He now sits in ninth place among all acts. Drake leads all musicians with 359 Hot 100 entries, followed by Taylor Swift with 264 and Future with 224. 'Daises' Almost Debuts at No. 1 'Daisies' is the biggest hit from Swag, and it nearly brought Bieber back to the summit of the Hot 100. The tune, which has been selected as the lead single from the album, launches in the runner-up position on the tally, coming in behind only 'Ordinary,' Alex Warren's breakout smash. Seven of the 16 songs from Swag that appear on the Hot 100 this week debut inside the top 40. Several musicians join Bieber with his roundup of just-shared tunes, including Sexyy Red, Gunna and newcomer Eddie Benjamin, among others.
