Harry Styles is celebrating news that his latest album debuted at the top of the Billboard 200.
Released on Dec. 13, Fine Line earned 478,000 equivalent album units – including 393,000 physical albums – to become the sixth-biggest album of 2019.
The chart, which ranks the most popular albums in the U.S. for the week ending Dec. 19, is dated Dec. 28 and will be published on Tuesday.
According to Billboard, Fine Line had the third-biggest sales week for any album in 2019 (behind Taylor Swift’s Lover and Post Malone’s Hollywood’s Bleeding); the biggest week for a pop album by a male artist in over four years; and the biggest week for an album by a solo UK artist since 1991.
Styles also becomes the first UK male artist to have his first two albums debut at No. 1.
At No. 2 on the Billboard 200 is Blake Shelton’s Fully Loaded: God’s Country. Roddy Rich’s Please Excuse Me for Being Anti-Social fell from No. 1 to No. 3 in its second week, followed by Post Malone’s Hollywood’s Bleeding and the Frozen II soundtrack.
Canadian singer Michael Bublé’s 2011 Christmas collection ranks No. 6.
Camila Cabello’s sophomore solo album Romance, which debuted at No. 3, fell out of the Top 10 in its second week.
