Bad Bunny Achieves THIS Decade Long Album Record With 'Un Verano Sin Ti'

El Conejo Malo, did it! Bad Bunny's most recent album, "Un Verano Sin Ti," clinches its 12th nonconsecutive week at the top of the Billboard 200 charts, making it the first album of this decade to reach such feat.

"Un Verano Sin Ti" snatched the top spot from BLACKPINK's "Pink Venom" after the girl group debuted at No. 1 last week, a career first.

Per Luminate, the album generated 87,000 album equivalent units last week, making it the most popular album in the United States. It has grossed 119.8 million on-demand official streams or 85,000 streaming units, while the actual album sales dipped to 2,000 while track units are less than 1,000.

Spending 12 nonconsecutive weeks on the charts, the album is currently challenging Drake's "Views" as it was the last one in recent music history to have reached 13 nonconsecutive weeks last 2016.

Compared to "Un Verano Sin Ti," "Views" had a way larger opening week. It opened to 1.04 million album-equivalent units in April 2016. The album also marked Drake's first No. 1 album on the UK Albums chart.

On the other hand, Bad Bunny's "Un Verano Sin Ti" scored only 274,000 album equivalent units - making it the Latino singer's second album, second all-Spanish album, and the biggest opening week for a Latin album ever on the Billboard 200 charts.

Early 2023 GRAMMY Predictions put "Un Verano Sin Ti" a shoo-in for the Album of the Year award, along with Adele, Harry, Beyonce, and Kendrick Lamar.

Meanwhile, the Billboard 200 Top 10 scores new additions and debuts.

At No. 2, 5 Seconds of Summer's "5SOS5" sits with 48,000 album-equivalent units, with 36,000 album sales.

According to Billboard, Morgan Wallen's "Dangerous: The Double Album" rose to No. 3, while BLACKPINK's "Pink Venom" descended to No. 4.

"Harry's House" gets back at No. 5, while Beyonce's "Rennaisance" holds down the fort at No. 6. The Weeknd's "The Highlights" is now at No. 7, switching spots with Harry Styles last week.

Rod Wave's "Beautiful Mind" falls to No. 9 after Alice in Chain's "Dirt" re-entered the Billboard 200 charts because of the record's release of the 30th Anniversary Remastered version.

Zach Bryan's "American Heartbreak" managed to break through at the Top 10 after a steep ascend from No. 11 last week.
