Miley Cyrus just made Billboard history, but not in the way any artist would want. Her brand new album Bass Persuades debuted at Number 1 on the Billboard 200 two weeks ago, marking her first chart-topping album in 13 years and what appeared to be a massive career comeback moment. Then came week two. Bass Persuades fell from Number 1 all the way down to Number 157 on the chart, a staggering drop of 156 positions in a single week. That is now the biggest second-week fall ever recorded for an album that opened at Number 1 in the entire history of the Billboard 200. To put that record in context, the previous holder of that dubious distinction was a holiday album released back in 1966. Miley Cyrus has now officially surpassed it. The drop raises serious questions about the nature of modern chart performance, where massive first-week streaming pushes driven by fan bases, promotional campaigns and algorithmic placement can inflate opening numbers far beyond what reflects genuine sustained audience interest. A Number 1 debut followed by a crash to Number 157 suggests that beyond the initial wave of dedicated listeners, the broader audience largely moved on within days. Whether that reflects the quality of the album, the marketing strategy, the streaming landscape, or simply the fragmented nature of music consumption in 2026 is a conversation the industry will likely be having for a while. So we want to know — are you a Miley fan who streamed Bass Persuades and loved it? Or did this one completely miss for you?
