April 4, 2026, and the Apple Music US album chart is a battlefield between pop royalty, K-pop armies, and country storytellers. BTSβs ARIRANG, a sprawling concept album about diaspora and longing, sits at #2, while Kanye Westβs raw, industrial BULLY seizes the top spot β a reminder that even after controversy, his cult-of-personality pulls streaming numbers. But the real shocker is Tory Lanezβs LOL : SLUTTY BASS at #5: an album released amid continued legal fallout, proving his core audience hasnβt flinched. Meanwhile, Ella Langleyβs Dandelion hasnβt even dropped yet (due April 10) but already cracks #4 β a testament to pre-release hype and Apple Musicβs streaming-around-ahead model. This isnβt a chart of nostalgia; itβs a snapshot of fandom intensity. The data comes directly from Apple Musicβs US streaming and download counts.
Top 10 lists about this release
Curated by our entertainment editors. Built from critical consensus and community vote.

Kanye Westβs BULLY β a jagged, 11-track assault released March 28 β tops the US Apple Music chart, proving his ability to command attention despite years of public controversy.

BTSβs ARIRANG, a sweeping, bilingual exploration of Korean identity released March 20, holds strong at #2, powered by a global ARMY that streams relentlessly.

Don Toliverβs OCTANE, an autotune-soaked trap opus from January 30, languishes at #3 β a slow-burner thatβs now been on the chart for over two months.

Ella Langleyβs Dandelion debuts at #4 before its official April 10 release, driven by pre-release singles and Apple Musicβs βFirst Listenβ program that counts advance streams.

Tory Lanezβs LOL : SLUTTY BASS, dropped just one day prior on April 3, rockets to #5 β a controversial figureβs dedicated fanbase refusing to abandon him.

Nine Viciousβs EMOTIONS, also released April 3, enters at #6 β a dark, melodic trap record that capitalizes on fresh release buzz and a growing underground following.

The KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack β a 2025 Netflix film tie-in β still charts at #7, a testament to K-pop fansβ habit of looping official playlists for months.

Harry Stylesβ Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally. β a March 6 drop blending disco, funk, and soft rock β sits at #8, sustained by its lead singleβs viral TikTok dance.

Sam Barberβs Broken View, a hushed country-folk album released April 3, debuts at #9, appealing to the same heartland audience that propels Luke Combs.

Luke Combsβ The Way I Am β also a March 20 release β rounds out the top 10 at #10, a reliable country hitmaker whose fanbase streams his albums like comfort food.

The top 10 is overwhelmingly music β no podcasts, no comedy albums, no exclusives β suggesting Apple Music users in the US lean on the platform for album-length listening. Hip-hop/rap dominates: Kanye (#1), Don Toliver (#3), Tory Lanez (#5). But country has a strong hand: Ella Langley (#4) and Luke Combs (#10) both occupy top slots, while Sam Barberβs Broken View (#9) adds folk-alt country. K-pop appears twice: BTS (#2) and the left-field soundtrack KPop Demon Hunters (#7), which, despite being a 2025 Netflix tie-in, still charts β a sign of sustained fan-driven streaming loops. The outlier is Harry Stylesβ Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally. (#8), a genre-bending dance-pop record that feels nostalgic against the heavier competition. Surprisingly, no Latin or Afrobeats entries. Expect next weekβs chart to see Ella Langley debut at #1 if pre-orders convert.
