Bad Bunny’s latest album Un Verano Sin Ti hit the shelves all the way back in May, but that’s not stopping it from still ruling the charts. The Puerto Rican singer returned to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart this week for the fifth time since dropping this album.

Un Verano Sin Ti was originally released on May 6, and it quickly debuted atop the Billboard 200 chart, becoming Bad Bunny’s second No. 1 album and the second all-Spanish language album to top the chart.

As weeks went by, Un Verano Sin Ti kept returning to No. 1 time and time again. It earned over 100,000 units in each of its first 10 weeks on the chart, becoming the first album in six years to do so. It also spent its first 10 weeks on the chart in the top two, for the first time since Morgan Wallen’s Dangerous: The Double Album.

This week marks the album’s fifth non-consecutive appearance at No. 1, with 105,000 equivalent album units sold in the US. It profited from a slow week on the Billboard 200 chart, with no major A-list releases. Brent Faiyaz’s sophomore album Wasteland debuted at No. 2, while Aespa’s Girls: The 2nd Mini Album bowed at No. 3.
