Rihanna&#8217;s &#8220;ANTI&#8221; and Justin Bieber&#8217;s &#8220;Purpose&#8221; are also vying for #1 on that chart, which ranks albums based on combined activity from pure sales, Track Equivalent Albums (track sales\/10) and Streaming Equivalent Albums (track streams\/1500).<\/p>\n<p>Per Hits, &#8220;25&#8221; and &#8220;ANTI&#8221; are both on track to generate 48-53,000 in total consumption units.
