Top 10 Apple Music — Top Albums (US) — April 28, 2026

Forget spooky season—April 28, 2026, is haunted by a different kind of ghost. Noah Kahan's The Great Divide: The Last Of The Bugs stomps onto the US Apple Music Albums chart at #1, a surprise drop that proves folk-trap storytelling still owns the mainstream. Meanwhile, Kehlani's self-titled project lands at #2, a sleek R&B statement that couldn't be more different in mood. This chart from Apple Music Albums measures pure listening volume—every stream, every download—so when you see a 1982 Michael Jackson classic at #8 or a K-pop soundtrack at #9, you're not looking at nostalgia alone; you're seeing real, active engagement from listeners who chose these records today. The US market is especially telling here: it's a nation that in one breath embraces a Vermont-born folk hero, a stadium country outlaw (Morgan Wallen at #5), and a BTS comeback (#6). The data source aggregates daily play counts across Apple Music's US user base, filtered to full-album plays, giving us a real-time snapshot of what Americans actually pressed play on—not what critics say they should.
