Michael Jackson Shatters His Best Streaming Week Total After Biopic Release, as Catalogue Floods Charts

The late icon more than doubles his previous best total, as Thriller and "Billie Jean" lead his albums and songs' returns.

Confirming projections reported in late April, Michael Jackson obliterates his personal-best domestic streaming week following the release of the Michael biopic. The King of Pop’s solo song catalogue registered a collective 137.5 million official on-demand streams for the week of April 24-30 in the United States, according to Luminate, up 146% and more than doubling his previous career high.

Before his nine-digit streaming haul, Jackson’s solo catalogue achieved a new personal benchmark last week at 55.9 million song clicks. Prior to the Michael era, the late icon, who died in 2009, recorded a high of 53.7 million for the week of Oct. 25-31, 2019, spurred by the now-annual Halloween resurgence for “Thriller.”
