Drake’s HABIBTI jumped 114 places to No. 2 on the Billboard 200 after an expanded edition added four songs, while a reissue of the Beatles’ Rubber Soul entered the top 10 for the first time in more than 60 years.
Drake’s album HABIBTI rose from No. 116 to No. 2 on the Billboard 200 in the week of 11 October 2026 with 71,000 equivalent album units, according to a summary of the chart by Ratings Game Music. The album returned to the chart after an expansion of FOMO added four songs, according to the report, and its total is now 553,000 units. The summary does not say how the expansion relates to the two titles, and it does not explain the connection.
The move of 114 places is large, and it shows how a single change, such as new tracks or a promotional push, can send a catalogue title back up the chart. The report does not say how the units divide between sales and streaming. Drake finished behind Taylor Swift’s The Life of a Showgirl, which was No. 1 with 93,000 units and gave Swift her 100th week at the top, as Delima News reports in a separate article.
The Beatles’ Rubber Soul was No. 4 with 58,000 units, a rise of 1,626% in sales terms, according to the report. It is a reissue, and the report describes it as the album’s first top 10 appearance in more than 60 years. The sources reviewed do not give the reissue’s format or release date, and they do not say how the units were made up, so it is not possible to say whether sales or streams were the main factor.
Olivia Rodrigo’s you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love was No. 3 with 66,000 units. The report says the album has now spent two weeks at No. 1 in total and has 1.8 million units, so it has remained in the top three after leaving the top spot. The sources reviewed do not give its release date.
Morgan Wallen’s I’m the Problem was No. 5 with 55,000 units. The report says it has spent 14 weeks at No. 1 and has a total of 7.29 million units, a figure that is slightly higher than the 7.127 million units of Swift’s album, which is also on 14 weeks. The comparison is Delima News’ own, using the two totals given in the same report.
The top five has a spread of 38,000 units between first and fifth, which is a small gap and shows how close the competition was, as the figures 93,000, 71,000, 66,000, 58,000 and 55,000 show. That makes it a week in which a few thousand units could change the order, though the sources do not give the sixth to tenth places.
The Beatles’ entry stands out because of the span of time. A first top 10 appearance after more than 60 years means that the album did not reach the top 10 when it was first released, according to the report’s wording, though the sources reviewed do not explain why. The chart has changed over the years, and the way that units are counted is different from the methods used in the 1960s, which is background not given in the sources.
The summary notes that it contains no mention of Miley Cyrus’s previous No. 1, which other reports said had come the week before.
The next chart will show whether Drake can keep his album in the top five or whether the jump was a one-week effect.
