The Fame Is One of The Biggest Dance/Electronics Albums of 2018

[DiscoHeaven23 35,007]

Well this is kinda cray

 

Lady Gaga's 2008 album The Fame is one of the biggest Dance/Electronic albums in the US this Billboard year. (Billboard years start in mid-November)

 

You can see how the album has charted each week on the Dance/Electronic album chart below. 

The Fame
Week 1: #7
Week 2: #4
Week 3: #6
Week 4: #5
Week 5: #6
Week 6: #5
Week 7: #4
Week 8: #4
Week 9: #4
Week 10: #4
Week 11: #5
Week 12: #5
Week 13: #4
Week 14: #4
Week 15: #4
Week 16: #4 (still charting)
 

The Fame got a major boost after the Super Bowl last year, and ended up being the 4th biggest Dance/Electronic album of 2017. It hadn't made the year end list, of 25, since 2011. It looks like this year it'll make the list as well. The Fame has only been outdone, most weeks, by The Chainsmokers Memories...Do Not Open and Collage (EP) and Calvin Harris' Funk Wav Bounces Vol 1. Some weeks it goes lower if a new dance/electronic artist releases an album that week. 

 

Year-End Dance/Electronic chart

2017: #4
2016: Didn’t make top 25
2015: Didn’t make top 25
2014: Didn’t make top 25
2013: Didn’t make top 25
2012: Didn’t make top 25
2011: #3
2010: #1
2009: #1
2008: #18 

 

I guess this kinda reflects the longevity of the album, but also shows the decline in popularity of the dance/electronic genre (at least when it comes to albums versus singles)
