Future Earns His Third No. 1 Album This Year, as Katy Perry’s ‘143’ Debuts at No. 6


Future picked up his third No. 1 album in six months — something last done by the Beatles — with Katy Perry debuting well behind in the sixth spot.

The release of Perry’s first album since 2020’s “Smile” came on the promising heels of a performance on the MTV VMAs that was quite well-received, mixing classics with excerpts from a couple of new tunes. The other seven slots in the top 10 were filled by returning entries, led by Chappell Roan ‘s “The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess,” which rose a spot to No. If not for Future’s big bow, Roan might have had an easy path to finally reaching the top spot this week, as the one-position bump doesn’t really reflect just what a boost it got — a 64% increase in units.
