Future, EVOL © Atlantic

Expectedly, Future tops the Billboard 200 Chart AGAIN.   Future wasn’t the only artist dropping a new album this week – but he certainly smoked the competition! Here are 25 BB Grooves for the Billboard 200 Chart dated February 27, 2016.

1. Future scores his third consecutive no. 1 album with EVOL. What a time to be alive it is indeed for Future.

2. Adele slipped to no. 3 last week but rebounds to the runner-up spot this week. 25 has yet to leave the top 3 of the Billboard 200.

3. Rihanna’s ANTI slips from no. 1 to no. 3 in week three. ANTI initially debuted at no. 27 before ascending to no. 1 last week.

4. Coldplay’s A Head Full Of Dreams ascends 12 spots from no. 16 to no. 4 following their Super Bowl halftime show.

5. Wiz Khalifa’s Khalifa opens modestly at no. 6 with his worst numbers yet.
