The set rises 3-1 and earned 67,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. in the week ending Oct. 15 (down 1 percent), according to Nielsen Music\/MRC Data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Shoot for the Stars, Aim for the Moon<\/em>&nbsp;debuted at No. 1 on the chart dated July 18, and then spent the next 13 weeks lodged in the top four positions of the list, until its return to No. 1 this week. (Further, during that 13-week span, nine of those weeks were at No. 2.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s the second album in 2020 to have such a lengthy wait between weeks at No. 1, following\u00a0<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/music\/lil-baby\" target=\"_blank\">Lil Baby<\/a>\u2019s\u00a0<em>My Turn<\/em>. That album, like\u00a0<em>Shoot for the Stars, Aim for the Moon<\/em>, debuted at No. 1 (on the March 14 chart) and then spent 13 weeks hovering near the top of the list (between Nos. 2-6) before returning to No. 1 (on the June 20 chart).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on&nbsp;multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid\/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. The new Oct. 24-dated chart (where&nbsp;<em>Shoot for the Stars, Aim for the Moon<\/em>&nbsp;returns to No. 1) will be posted in full on&nbsp;<em>Billboard<\/em>&#8216;s website on Oct. 20. For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both Twitter and Instagram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the first time in over two months, there are no debuts in the top 10. The chart last had zero debuts in the top 10 on the Aug. 15-dated chart. Additionally, this week\u2019s absence of top 10 debuts comes after two debut-filled weeks: on the Oct. 17 chart (five debuts) and the Oct. 10 chart (six debuts).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Back on the new Billboard 200,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/music\/21-savage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">21 Savage<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.billboard.com\/music\/metro-boomin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Metro Boomin<\/a>\u2019s&nbsp;<em>Savage Mode II&nbsp;<\/em>falls 1-2 in its second week on the list, with 66,000 equivalent album units earned (down 61 percent).
