On November 19, Adele finally released her first album in six years, with “30.” This was her fourth studio album, and led by the chart-topping “Easy On Me” single. 30 was immediately expected to become Adele’s fourth straight album. Now, this milestone is now official.

According to Chart Data, 30 has now debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart. This album sold 839,000 units, in its first week. 692,000 were in pure sales, as 185.39 million on-demand streams, were also accumulated.

30 is also the biggest debut for an album, in 2021. This is also the biggest debut for an album on the Billboard 200, since Taylor Swift’s “Folklore.” 30 contained 12 tracks in total, with the only feature being Erroll Garner, on “All Night Parking.”

Adele also performed several songs from 30, a few weeks ago, on CBS, during a national televised special. This came with some special moments, which included a fan getting proposed to.
