The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units, compiled by Luminate. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. The new Aug. 23, 2025-dated chart will be posted in full on Billboard‘s website on Tuesday (Aug. 19).

Of I’m the Problem’s 126,000 equivalent album units earned in the week ending Aug. 14, SEA units comprise 121,000 (down 7%, equaling 159.73 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs — it leads Top Streaming Albums for a 12th nonconsecutive week), album sales comprise 4,000 (down 3%, it falls 13-21 on Top Album Sales) and TEA units comprise 1,000 (down 12%).

The KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack is steady at its No. 2 high on the Billboard 200, with 104,000 equivalent album units earned (its best week yet by units earned, up 4%). The set has posted a gain every week since its debut on the list eight weeks ago.

Gunna logs his seventh top 10-charted effort on the Billboard 200, as The Last Wun arrives at No. 3 with 80,000 equivalent album units earned. Of that sum, SEA units comprise 79,000 (equaling 104.49 million on-demand official streams of its songs — it debuts at No. 3 on Top Streaming Albums), while album sales comprise 1,000 (it was available to purchase only as a standard widely available download album) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum. The Last Wun was preceded by its charted songs “Him All Along” (No. 58 peak last November on the Billboard Hot 100) and “Won’t Stop” (No. 70, June).

mgk debuts at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 with lost americana, marking his seventh top 10 project. The set bows with 63,000 equivalent album units earned. Of that sum, album sales comprise 40,500 — it debuts at No. 1 on Top Album Sales, SEA units comprise 22,000 (equaling 28.63 million on-demand official streams of its songs; it debuts at No. 18 on Top Streaming Albums), and TEA units comprise 500. The album was preceded by the charted song “cliché,” which peaked at No. 62 on the Hot 100 in June.

The first-week sales of lost americana were bolstered by the set’s availability across 10 vinyl variants (including two signed by mgk), four CD variants (including one signed by the artist), a standard widely available download and four deluxe CD boxed sets (each containing a branded clothing item and a copy of the CD).

Alex Warren’s You’ll Be Alright, Kid rises 6-5 on the Billboard 200, matching its peak rank, with 42,000 equivalent album units earned (down 3%).

Jonas Brothers achieve their eighth top 10-charted project on the Billboard 200 as Greetings From Your Hometown starts at No. 6 with 39,000 equivalent album units. Of that sum, album sales comprise 26,000 (it debuts at No. 3 on Top Album Sales), SEA units comprise 13,000 (equaling 16.49 million on-demand official streams of its songs) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum. The album was preceded by a trio of charted songs on the Pop Airplay chart: “Slow Motion” (with Marshmellow, No. 37 peak in March), “Love Me to Heaven” (No. 34, May) and “No Time to Talk” (which rose to a new peak of No. 27 on the most recently published chart, dated Aug. 23).

The first-week sales of Greetings were aided by its availability as a widely available 10-song standard vinyl and CD album. The set was also available in two additional vinyl variants (one signed) and more than 50 CD variants (including 50 signed editions, individualized for each of the 50 States of the U.S.), a deluxe download edition with four bonus tracks, a deluxe download edition with six bonus tracks and an artist webstore-exclusive download edition with bonus live tracks.

Justin Bieber’s SWAG falls 5-7 on the Billboard 200 with 38,000 equivalent album units earned (down 13%) and Morgan Wallen’s chart-topping One Thing at a Time dips 7-8 with nearly 38,000 units (down 3%).

BABYMETAL scores its first top 10 album on the Billboard 200 as METAL FORTH debuts at No. 9 with 36,000 equivalent album units earned — the act’s best week by units. Of that sum, album sales comprise 33,500 (the act’s best sales week ever; it debuts at No. 2 on Top Album Sales), SEA units comprise 2,500 (equaling 3.28 million on-demand official streams of its songs) and TEA units comprise a negligible sum.

METAL FORTH’s first-week sales got a boost from its availability across 15 vinyl variants (including two signed editions), six CD editions (five signed), two deluxe CD boxed sets (one of which was signed, both containing branded merch and a copy of the CD), three cassettes, a widely available standard digital download album and three deluxe expanded digital download albums (each with two different bonus tracks, exclusive to the band’s webstore).

Rounding out the latest top 10 of the Billboard 200 is SZA’s former leader SOS, which shifts 8-10 with 35,000 equivalent album units earned (down 4%). SOS clocks its 100th nonconsecutive week in the top 10 — the first album by a woman that has claimed 100 weeks in the top 10 in the chart’s history, which dates to March 1956.

SOS already had the record for the most weeks in the top 10 among albums by women, when it surpassed Adele’s 21 in April. Among individual artists (excluding multi-act soundtracks and cast recordings), only Morgan Wallen and SZA have albums with at least 100 weeks in the top 10. Wallen has done it twice, with Dangerous: The Double Album (165) and One Thing at a Time (121). The album with the most weeks in the top 10, overall, is the original cast recording of My Fair Lady, with 173 weeks in 1956-60.
