“MAYHEM” falls to #9 (nearly 45,000 units moved; down 15%) on the Billboard 200.

Still #8 in today's mids!

Officially #8 in the UK for week 5!

5 weeks top ten! It’ll tie Chromaticas weeks in the top ten should it remain there next week. Here’s hoping Coachella keeps it stable or even gives a boost!

#12. “MAYHEM” (+2)

KEEP CLIMBING. ALBUM OF THE CENTURY!! ❤️❤️❤️

Shocked at how badly this all flopped. It all hangs on an actual Bruno Mars song to even look HALF successful... Should have released Zombieboy for Halloween, Garden Panty second, and went all in on impact week for short no.1s. Third, Wait... How BAD!!!!!????? ... (Ho You want Me?), fourth Abracadabra, 5th Disesse for a small Halloween hit, and then a collabga. That woulf have been a respectable ers. But not ... this flop. Taylor and Beyonce found smiling and shaking their heads dismissively and patronisingly.

She probably sent a warning shot to Taylor with How Bad?!?!?!. Probably over something Cerdei did. But Taylor is unbothered, due to the flops.

I'm sure you're a troll? This album is one of her most successful already? Abracadabra is on 270m+ streams?

When you look at the album as a whole it's still streaming great so I'm unsure what numbers you were expecting her to do?

The Music industry has changed hardly anyone releases that number of singles before an album?

4 of Mayhem's songs are also in her most streamed top 10 singles currently on Spotify (Which the newbies are up against her most successful hits?)

I'd hardly say it was a flop (She also sold 74,000 vinyls in week 1 in the USA) and her sales were up on Chromatica in week 1.

Joanne sadly I'd call a flop - Mayhem definitely not! It's shaping up to be one of her most successful Era's.

When you compare Cowboy Carter's streams they are pretty much on par with Gaga's album tracks? (Excluding Texas)

Anyway

Mayhem will definitely have more staying power than Cowboy Carter, at least in the UK. The latter has got only 9 weeks in top 40.

Mayhem will easily eclipse Cowboy Carter, and that’s without a doubt. Nothing this year even matches Mayhem in terms of social media presence, how widespread it is and the prominence of it (Tate McRae is close from a pop perspective).

I know the year is still early but still.

Yeah, Mayhem is the only 2025 album that is in top ten at the moment and has more than one week in there.

Edited April 13Apr 13 by Sour Candy

MAYHEM has stayed in the UK Top 10 for a 6th week now. It’s #10 this week but was #16 in Mondays midweek update so a rise since then!

It’s now matched Chromatica weeks wise in the UK top ten albums!

The SLAYAGE!!!

I thought Sam would fall!

AMAZING! Hopefully it can continue to do similar numbers this week and sneak another week top 10.

Just had a look at the charts for this week out of curiosity!

Streaming - 14

Sales - 22

Downloads - 16

Physical - 24

Happy to see it top still 10 officially.

Streaming wise on Apples chart for albums it’s been top 3 pretty much all week and was even #1 some of the week (although that chart is very different to the official one!).

On the sales charts I expected lower because of the RSD impact! Let’s see what impact Coachella weekend 2 has! Really do hope we get confirmation of the next single though. Week 7 onwards was when Chromatica began to quickly tail off the charts - I hope the same doesn’t happen here (although I am optimistic this is going to get more chart weeks!).

Edited April 18Apr 18 by Jordanlee1402

I think ‘Mayhem’ will most definitely out perform ‘Chromatica’, as the interest in Gaga is insane this year (alongside all the events she is doing globally this year).

#10 (+2) in Finland. The highest charting album by international artist atm.
