This week’s Billboard 200 features Taylor Swift’s “The Tortured Poets Department” at #1 and Gracie Abrams’ “The Secret Of Us” at #2.
The two artists also claim the top two spots on the Billboard Artist 100, with Taylor Swift scoring a 115th career week at #1 and Abrams re-entering at a carer peak of #2.
The Artist 100 ranks the top artists in America based on song and album consumption; given the success of their respective albums, the positioning is unsurprising.
Beyond touring together as part of Swift’s “The Eras Tour,” the two also share a musical collaboration. Their song “Us” appears on Abrams’ latest album — and earned a spot on the week’s Billboard Hot 100.
