A$AP&#8221; to the #1 spot on Billboard&#8217;s Top Album Sales chart.<\/p>\n<p>While down from the 139,000 mark achieved by predecessor &#8220;Long. Live. A$AP,&#8221; the total provides the new album with comfortable separation from the rest of the pack.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;At. Long. Last.&#8221; also tops the consumption-oriented Billboard 200.  With Track Equivalent Album (10 single sales = 1 album sale) and Streaming Equivalent Album (1500 single streams = 1 album sale) data included, the album boasts a first week consumption total of 146,000 units.<\/p>\n<p>The Billboard 200&#8217;s top ten follows:<br \/>\n1) A$AP Rocky &#8211; At. Long. Last. A$AP &#8211; 146K total units (117K from pure sales)<br \/>\n2) Taylor Swift &#8211; 1989 &#8211; 70K total units<br \/>\n3) Boosie Badazz &#8211; Touch Down 2 Cause Hell &#8211; 64K total units (59K from sales)<br \/>\n4) Pitch Perfect 2 &#8211; 51K total units<br \/>\n5) Hillsong United &#8211; Empires &#8211; 50K total units (47K from sales)<br \/>\n6) twenty one pilots &#8211; Blurryface &#8211; 38K total units<br \/>\n7) Ed Sheeran &#8211; x &#8211; 35K total units (18K from sales)<br \/>\n8) Meghan Trainor &#8211; Title &#8211; 34K total units<br \/>\n9) 50 Shades of Grey &#8211; 30K total units<br \/>\n10) Furious 7 &#8211; 30K total units (6K from sales)<br \/>\n============<\/p>\n<p>With a total that nearly doubles that of its closest competitor, A$AP Rocky&#8217;s &#8220;At. Long. Last. A$AP&#8221; comfortably wins the weekly sales race.<\/p>\n<p>According to Hits Daily Double, the rapper&#8217;s sophomore album moved approximately 116,131 copies during its first week of release.  While Billboard&#8217;s final data will differ slightly, such disparity will not impact the ultimate conclusion:  &#8220;At. Long. Last. A$AP&#8221; was the May 25-31 tracking week&#8217;s best-selling album, and it will debut atop the Billboard Top Album Sales chart.<\/p>\n<p>Released in 2013, predecessor &#8220;Long. Live. A$AP&#8221; moved 139,000 first-week copies.  It also topped the sales chart.<\/p>\n<p>With Track Equivalent Album (10 single sales = 1 album sale) and Streaming Equivalent Album (1500 single streams = 1 album sale) data included, &#8220;At. Long. Last&#8221; claims a weekly consumption total of ~143,483 units.
