Taylor Swift has become the first living recording artist to have seven albums charting in the top 40 of the Billboard 200 at the same time.
Swift’s seven albums are currently charting for the week of April 1, the outlet reported Monday. In addition to that feat, her newest album, Midnights, is now ranked third on the chart.
The singer, who recently performed Cowboy Like Me for the first time on her ongoing Eras Tour, is the second artist and first living individual to have seven albums in the top 40 all at once, the first being Whitney Houston.
The late singer achieved the same level of success following her death in 2012.
Coming in behind Midnights, which peaked at the number one spot after its October release, is Swift’s 2019 album Lover at number 13, and Folklore and 1989 have landed at 13th and 14th place, respectively.
