THE BIGGEST ALBUMS
OF 2021

The vibrant state of the music business is on display at the top of our year-end albums chart, with debut and sophomore albums occupying 50% of the slots on the leaderboard. This youth movement is led by chart-topping Morgan Wallen and #2 Olivia Rodrigo, followed by the late Pop Smoke, The Kid LAROI and Dua Lipa. Doja Cat’s breakthrough third album is the icing on the cake.
