Taylor Swift is just the best at keeping the #1 crown these days. Our pop queen’s re-imagined masterpiece, “1989 (Taylor’s Version),” is on the way to reclaim the number one spot in the United States. That’s right, the album will be topping the Billboard 200 chart next week, if predictions hit it right.
And hold on, because the numbers are as dazzling as Tay’s tours: we’re talking 120k units sold. With this, Taylor Swift is projected to re-enter the number one spot, with Drake and his “For All the Dogs” album at number 2 with 78k units, and Morgan Wallen’s “One Thing at the Time” at number 3 with 56K. She’s clearly numbers away from their main competitors!
As if that wasn’t enough, “1989 (Taylor’s Version)” is not just revisiting the #1 place, it’s making T-Swift a candidate for a historic chart record in the country. She’s closing in on the legendary Elvis Presley, which would make her the second artist with the most cumulative weeks at #1 on the album chart.
Now, get this future fact: With “1989 (Taylor’s Version)” Taylor would reign supreme for her 66th week. So, she’s just a step away from tying with The King, who has 67 weeks on top. Then, The Beatles would be left, but they hold a much bigger number: 132 cumulative weeks at #1.
So there you have it: Taylor Swift is the undeniable queen of reinvention and chart domination. Thanks to “1989 (Taylor’s Version)” leading the charge, she’s not just chasing records, she’s setting them. Swifties, you have some hard work to do, but for now, let’s rejoice for Tay’s achievements this week!
