The No. 1 album in the first week of 2021 is the same as the last week in 2020 as Taylor Swift’s evermore spends its third non-consecutive week at the top of the Billboard Canadian Albums chart, earning the highest album sales and on-demand stream total for the week.


It matches the three weeks at No. 1 reached with her other 2020 album release, folklore.

Pop Smoke’s Shoot for the Stars Aim for the Moon skips 5-2, Eminem’s Music to Be Murdered By edges 4-3, The Kid LAROI’s F*ck Love moves 6-4 and The Weeknd’s After Hours bullets 12-5.
