List of Billboard 200 number-one albums of 2019

This is a list of the albums ranked number one in the United States during 2019. The top-performing albums and EPs in the United States are ranked on the Billboard 200 chart, which is published by Billboard magazine. The data is compiled by Nielsen SoundScan based on each album's weekly physical and digital sales, as well as on-demand streaming and digital sales of their individual tracks.

Taylor Swift's seventh studio album Lover earned the biggest sales week of 2019, and became the best-selling album of the year.

Multiple artists received their first number-one album in 2019, including: 21 Savage, A Boogie wit da Hoodie, Hozier, Juice Wrld (which would be his last released during his lifetime following his death later in the year), Nav, Billie Eilish, Khalid, Tyler, the Creator, The Raconteurs, Young Thug, Luke Combs, DaBaby, SuperM, YoungBoy Never Broke Again, Trippie Redd, and Roddy Ricch.

The year also featured many artists return to the number-one spot after years of absence: the band Tool released their first number-one album in 13 years, the Jonas Brothers released their first in 10 (becoming the third consecutive number-one for both artists), the Backstreet Boys released their first album in 6 years, and their first number-one since 2000, and Celine Dion had her first number-one since 2002.

Billie Eilish's debut album When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? was the best performing album of 2019. Taylor Swift's seventh studio album, Lover, was the best-selling album of 2019, and had the year's biggest sales week with 867,000 units.[1]

Chart history

Billie Eilish's (pictured) debut album When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go? was the best performing album of 2019. Eilish became the first artist born in the 21st century to have a number-one album on the Billboard 200.
Ariana Grande earned her fourth number-one album with Thank U, Next. It earned the largest streaming week for a pop album.
Post Malone had the longest-running number-one album of the year, with his album Hollywood's Bleeding topping the chart for five non-consecutive weeks.
Juice Wrld had his first number-one album with his second studio album Death Race for Love. It would be the last album released during his lifetime, as he died on December 8, 2019.
Tool, fronted by Maynard James Keenan (pictured), released their first album in 13 years, Fear Inoculum. It topped the chart for a week, earning around 270,000 units—the highest debut for a rock/metal band in 2019, and prevented Taylor Swift from a second week atop the chart.
Kanye West (pictured) had his ninth consecutive number-one album with Jesus Is King, tying the record set by rapper Eminem.
YoungBoy Never Broke Again had his first number one album with his fourteenth mixtape, AI YoungBoy 2.
