Miley Cyrus’s New Album Suffers A Terrible Second Week On The Charts

Miley Cyrus debuted her new album Something Beautiful across a variety of Billboard rankings last week, and the highly-anticipated set opened inside the top 10 on most tallies. Just days later, the title has vanished from a number of lists and dropped precipitously on the most important albums chart in the United States, suggesting that beyond her super fans, there isn’t yet a sustained interest in the pop superstar’s latest release.

Something Beautiful Drops Almost 100 Spots

Something Beautiful launched at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 last week, earning Cyrus another career top 10. In its second frame on the ranking of the most consumed full-lengths and EPs in America, it descends nearly 100 spaces, dropping to No. 102.

The collection initially arrived with 44,300 equivalent units. In its second frame of availability, it shifted just 12,000 (per Luminate) — marking a 73% decline in terms of total consumption from one frame to the next.

Miley Cyrus’s New Album Declines 84% in Sales

The project experiences a much softer decline in terms of position on the Top Album Sales chart. Something Beautiful debuted in the runner-up space on Billboard’s list of the bestselling titles in the country with 27,000 purchases. This time around, it drops to No. 18, selling another 4,300 copies.

That’s a decline of 84%, but that kind of a change isn’t entirely shocking. Purchases of an album are usually at their most impressive during the title’s first frame of availability, and even some long-running successes experience drastic dips in pure purchases.

Backtracking on the Billboard 200 — which also includes streaming activity — suggests that many people not only stopped buying Something Beautiful, but also stopped streaming the title after only a few days.

Miley Cyrus Vanishes from the Hot 100

Cyrus is nowhere to be found on several other Billboard tallies where she appeared just a few days ago. Something Beautiful has completely vacated both the Vinyl Albums and Top Streaming Albums charts.

She also no longer appears on the Hot 100 with any tracks from Something Beautiful. “Easy Lover” debuted last frame at No. 82, but neither that tune nor the lead single “End of the World” — which peaked at No. 52 — can be found at the moment.
