‘1989 (Taylor’s Version)’ by Taylor Swift back to the upper army position Billboard 200, push ‘Pink Friday 2’ of Nicki Minaj dropped to 2nd place in the second week of launch.
Album of Taylor Swift is going through the fourth week (not consecutively) at No. 1. 1989 (Taylor’s Version) re-exporting and holding the highest position in the last week before Christmas is not surprising, because the vinyl version (coal disc) of the female name’s albums has had terrible sales thanks to Christmas gift buyers.
Taylor Swift currently holds many music records

Taylor Swift’s dominance in the music charts gives her the ability to set more records. This is the 67th week Taylor Swift has the album at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, on par with Elvis Presley as a solo artist with weeks to top the rankings. If 1989 (Taylor’s Version) continue to hold No. 1 on the next chart for another week – something she has nearly 100% chance to do it – then Taylor Swift will rise ahead of Elvis Presley.
However, the female singer still does not hold the highest position if the word “solo” is removed”. The all-time record is being held by The Beatles, the band has been at No. 1 on the album chart for 132 weeks, nearly double the number that Taylor Swift and Elvis Presley currently have. It will take her many more years to beat The Beatles’ record. But Swift is only 34 years old and still very prolific in his career so no one can think that The Beatles’ record will stand forever.

The 67-week album by Taylor Swift and Elvis Presley at No. 1 helped both go beyond the rest. Garth Brooks has the number 1 album in 52 weeks, followed by Michael Jackson with 51 weeks.
Taylor Swift’s dominance is even more clearly marked when she has 3 albums in the top 10 sold the most 1989, Midnights (3rd place) and Lover (7th).

Billboard did not offer vinyl sales or Taylor Swift’s total album sales when it announced news of the week’s rankings. But it is clear that the female singer is dominating actual sales.
