...#26. It's tied for the second-biggest drop from #1 of all time, the biggest being Incubus' 'Light Grenades' dropping 1-37 back in 2006. Kendrick Lamar replaces them at #1 this week with his surprise release. Its 177K (142K sales) is less than the 363K/324K opening of 'To Pimp A Butterfly' last year but that's to be expected for a surprise album of demos. Macklemore & Ryan Lewis also have a big plummet from #4 to #31. And with a career spanning over 50 years, country legend Loretta Lynn gets her highest charting album to date. It's at #19, her previous best being #24 from a 2004 album, and it's her first ever top 10 on the sales chart!

New RIAA certifications:
Justin Bieber, Purpose - 3x Platinum
Twenty One Pilots, Vessel - Gold
Rachel Platten, Widlfire - Gold

The Weeknd's "Beauty Behind The Madness" crosses 1 million scanned this week.
