Thriller landed in the top 10 on Billboard‘s 200 chart, dated Dec. 3rd. Thriller catapulted from No. 115 to No. 7 following its 40th-anniversary reissue released on Nov. 18.
According to Billboard, the album earned 37,000 equivalent album units with album sales comprising 27,500 of that sum. The 9,000 SEA units total 13.17 million on-demand official streams.
And for once the Estate of Michael Jackson thanked his fans for making it to the Billboard 200. That’s right, the fans did this, as the lack of promotion for this album on all official social channels did not let the general public know about the new releases, the new songs or even the events around Thriller 40.
Thanks to Michael’s fans all around the world for support of Thriller 40 and getting the album to #7 on the Billboard 200 Album Chart and on all of the other charts around the world! #Thriller40 pic.twitter.com/CAWIjnyzs5
