To no one’s surprise, Taylor Swift\u2019s The Tortured Poets Department<\/i> debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart (dated May 4), making it her 14th No. 1 album on the chart. <\/p>\n

The album sold 2.61 million equivalent album units<\/b> earned in the U.S. in the week ending April 25, with traditional album sales (digital download albums, CDs, vinyl LPs and cassettes) being 1.914 million. Of that sales figure, vinyl sales were 859,000. The 31 songs deluxe edition of the album generated 891.34 million on-demand official streams.<\/p>\n

Her album sales were bolstered by its availability across 19 different physical configurations<\/b> (nine CDs, six vinyl LPs and four cassettes, with four of the physical configurations exclusively sold by Target stores) and two digital download offerings (the standard 16-song album, and a surprise deluxe 31-song edition that was released two hours after the original album dropped).<\/p>\n

TTPD<\/i> is the seventh Swift album to have sold at least 1 million copies in a single week, following the debuts of 1989 (Taylor\u2019s Version), Midnights, reputation, OG 1989, Red<\/i> and Speak Now<\/i>. <\/p>\n
