Miley Cyrus suffers chart drop with ‘Bass Persuades’ despite success

Miley Cyrus' new album now holds a record no vocalist wants to own.

Bass Persuades, her latest album, topped the Billboard 200 chart when it was released, but just a week later the Disney Channel star's project has fallen down to the Number 157 spot.

According to Variety, this is the biggest second-week drop for a full-length release that debuted in the Number 1 spot ever recorded.

Bass Persuades was Miley's first Number 1 album in almost 13 years after it was released on September 18 2026 and it marks her first project under her new stage name, as now she simply wishes to go by the mononym Miley.

The album's title track reached the Number 35 spot on the Billboard Hot 100, which was her 24th Top 40 entry.

Despite her album's swift descent from the top spot, fans are clearly still eager to see the Hannah Montana actress perform in real life.

Miley would be playing two sold-out shows at Hollywood Bowl on October 16 and 18, which will be her first live public performances in four years.

According to Hollywood Bowl organisers, over 1.5 million people registered online for presale tickets to see Miley perform at her highly-anticipated shows.
