Miley Cyrus’ Bass Persuades Suffers Biggest Chart Drop Ever After No. 1 Debut
After scoring her first No. 1 since 2013, the album plummeted 156 spots in its second week on the chart. Miley Cyrus’ Bass Persuades Suffers Biggest Chart Drop Ever After No. 1 Debut Karan Singh
Miley Cyrus’ latest album, Bass Persuades, shattered all records with a record-breaking debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. However, that historical achievement soon turned into a crushing disappointment as the album plummeted to No. 157 in its second week. This represents the largest drop ever for a full-length album that debuted at the summit, surpassing even the steep falls of Bon Jovi’s 2018 release and Travis Scott’s 2022 album.
What sets this unprecedented drop apart is that no other chart-topper has ever plummeted as drastically in its second week after a No. 1 debut. Bass Persuades launched Cyrus into the spotlight once again, marking her first No. 1 album in nearly 13 years since 2013’s Bangerz. The album’s success was primarily driven by strong sales, with 47,000 units sold and 14.22 million on-demand streams from the streaming-equivalent units.
Despite the drastic decline in sales, Cyrus’ concert tour for Bass Persuades is drawing record-breaking attendance, with presales for two sold-out shows at the Hollywood Bowl exceeding 1.5 million.
