Taylor Swift ties Eminem’s Australian chart record

After breaking Spotify’s record for the most streamed album in a single day, Taylor Swift’s re-recording of Red has its sights set on the Australian album charts.

Red (Taylor’s Version) is expected to claim No. 1 spot on the ARIA Albums Chart. Previously released Fearless (Taylor’s Version) opened at No. 1 in Australia upon release back in April, 2021, giving the US singer her 8th consecutive No. 1 album on Aussie charts.

If she debuts at No. 1 with Red (Taylor’s Version), which is 99% confirmed, she will tie with the current record for most consecutive No. 1 studio albums, held by none other than Eminem with nine!

Eminem’s solo studio albums that managed to hit No. 1 on Australian charts are: The Marshall Mathers LP (2000), The Eminem Show (2002), Encore (2004), Relapse (2009), Recovery (2010), The Marshall Mathers LP2 (2013), Revival (2017), Kamikaze (2018), Music To Be Murdered By (2020).
