Morgan Wallen’s Dangerous makes history tying Taylor Swift’s Folklore with eight consecutive weeks at No.1.

According to Billboard, Morgan Wallen’s Dangerous: The Double Album continues to rule the Billboard 200 chart for an eighth week, all consecutively, after having bowed atop the tally seven weeks ago. Dangerous is now one of only six country albums that have spent at least eight weeks in total at No. 1.

Dangerous now ties Taylor Swift’s 2020 album Folklore for the second-most weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in the last five years — among albums of all genres. Each has tallied eight weeks at No. 1. Drake’s Views has the most weeks at No. 1 in the last five years, with 13 nonconsecutive weeks at No. 1 (all in 2016).

Dangerous continues to move up the list of country albums with the most weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, since the chart began publishing on a regular weekly basis in March of 1956. Dangerous is the only country set to spend its first eight weeks on the chart at No. 1.
