Chris Brown Earns Third No. 1 Album on Billboard 200 Chart With 'Indigo'

Chris Brown notches his third No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 chart, as his new effort Indigo launches atop the list with 108,000 equivalent album units earned in the week ending July 4, according to Nielsen Music. Of that sum, 28,000 were in album sales.

Indigo marks Brown’s third leader on the Billboard 200 and his 10th consecutive top 10 album (the entirety of his charting efforts). His first top 10 came with his No. 2-peaking self-titled debut effort, which was released in 2005. He claimed his first two No. 1s with consecutive releases in 2011 and 2012: F.A.M.E. and Fortune.

At No. 2 on the new Billboard 200, Lil Nas X’s 7 holds steady in the runner-up slot for a second week, as the set earned 62,000 equivalent album units (down 20%). Of that sum, it sold 2,000 copies (down 52%). The album is driven mostly by streaming activity, led by its ubiquitous smash single “Old Town Road.”

Billie Eilish’s former No. 1, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?, is stationary at No. 3, with 52,000 units (down 8%).
Rock duo The Black Keys tallies its fourth top 10 set, as Let’s Rock rumbles in at No. 4 with 52,000 equivalent album units. Of that figure, 41,000 were in album sales. The act previously visited the top 10 with Turn Blue (No. 1 in 2014), El Camino (No. 2, 2011) and Brothers (No. 3, 2010).
At No. 5, Chance the Rapper claims his highest-charting album, as his mixtape Acid Rap, first released for free in 2013, debuts after its official commercial and streaming release on June 28.
