54
Country superstars the Zac Brown Band have charted their third consecutive number one album with their latest release, Jekyll + Hyde. The started its chart life with a very healthy 228,000 units shifted, which is better than any album that made it to the top spot in the past month. In fact, that figure makes Jekyll the biggest debut since Kendrick Lamar’s To Pimp a Butterflymoved 363,000 in its first week. Several recent albums that topped the tally, including new projects from Wale, Alabama Shakes, and Vine star Shawn Mendes, all debuted with less than half the total that Zac Brown just sold.
The band first sat atop the Billboard 200 in 2010 with their fourth album You Get What You Give, and then they achieved the fate again two years later with Uncaged. The group broke into the mainstream with their album The Foundation, which produced five top 40 hits, including four number ones on the country charts. The first two singles from Jekyll + Hyde, “Homegrown” and the rockier Chris Cornell-assisted “Heavy is the Head” have both reached the summit on various tallies in the US.
