The Billboard 200 is a record chart published weekly by Billboard that ranks the best-performing albums in the U.S. The data is compiled by Luminate based on multi-metric consumption as measured in album-equivalent units, which comprise album sales, digital song sales, and streams on music platforms. Each unit equals one album, or 10 individual digital tracks, or 3,750 ad-supported streams, or 1,250 paid/subscription streams generated by songs from an album.

There were 26 albums that topped the Billboard 200 during the chart's 52 issue weeks. The top-performing album of the year was Un Verano Sin Ti by Puerto Rican rapper-singer Bad Bunny. It topped the chart for 13 non-consecutive weeks and registered the most weeks at number one since Drake's Views (2016). [1] Un Verano Sin Ti became the first album in chart history to spend its first 24 weeks (6 months) in the top two and the first Latin album to top the Billboard Year-End chart. [1] The soundtrack of Disney's 2021 animated musical film, Encanto , marked the sixth time in history an animated film's soundtrack reached number one on the Billboard 200, following The Lion King (1994), Pocahontas (1995), Curious George (2006), Frozen and Frozen II (2019).

Top Album Sales is a music chart published by Billboard magazine starting in May 1991, and has existed in its current form since December 2014. It is a weekly chart documenting the best-selling albums on a weekly basis in the United States. Up until December 2014, this had been documented by the Billboard 200 chart, but that chart was altered to factor in music streaming by accounting for album-equivalent units in its tallies to document the effect of the rise of music streaming outlets such as Apple Music and Spotify. Starting in the Top Album Sales chart's debut week of May 25, 1991, Billboard began tabulating charts with electronically monitored piece count information from Soundscan, now known as Luminate. During the week of December 6, 2014, the chart switched to a methodology that blends album sales with track equivalent album units and streaming equivalent album units. The Top Album Sales chart was created to preserve the older methodology of counting pure album sales.
