Post Malone’s Hollywood’s Bleeding debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart with 52,000 total consumption units, scoring a clean sweep with the highest album sales, audio on-demand streams and digital song downloads for the week. It is his second straight chart-topping album, following 2018’s Beerbongs & Bentleys, which spent three weeks at No. 1. Hollywood’s Bleeding has also achieved the highest one-week consumption total and audio-on-demand stream total of 2019, and the most since Drake’s Scorpion in July 2018. 


Taylor Swift’s Lover holds at No. 2 for the second straight week, and Lil Tecca’s We Love You Tecca edges 4-3 as his single Ransom sits at the top of the Streaming Songs chart. Last week’s No. 1 album, Tool’s Fear Inoculum, drops to 4, and Ed Sheeran’s No. 6 Collaborations Project holds at 5.
