Record-breaking decline confirmed

The full chart list revealed that the album was not in the top 10. This specific drop marks the steepest fall ever recorded for an album debuting at number one. Some reports previously suggested a different record involving Bon Jovi, but those details are now clarified.

Comparison with past data

News outlets had erroneously cited Bon Jovi's 2016 release as having a larger tumble from the top spot. That earlier album was two years old when it briefly returned to number one using a banned bundling tactic. The current record applies only to albums that premiered at number one and then fell immediately in week two.
