beabadoobee’s heavier new album could bring her a career first on the Billboard 200.
beabadoobee’s Pylon is gaining momentum in the race for a top 10 debut on the Billboard 200.
According to an updated projection from Hits Daily Double, the album is expected to earn between 35,000 and 40,000 equivalent album units during its opening week. That is a noticeable increase from the earlier estimate of approximately 30,000 units attributed to Nora Music.
If Pylon reaches the top 10, it will become beabadoobee’s first album to achieve that milestone on the Billboard 200. The current figures remain projections, meaning the final total and chart position could still change before Billboard publishes its official rankings.
Pylon is beabadoobee’s first studio album since 2024’s This Is How Tomorrow Moves. That project reached No. 1 in the United Kingdom and gave her a top 10 entry on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart, which is separate from the Billboard 200.
The new album includes tracks such as “Sun Has Set” and “Memories,” along with appearances from Hayley Williams and Turnstile’s Brendan Yates. Musically, it finds beabadoobee pushing deeper into grunge, Midwest emo, and alternative rock without sacrificing the sticky melodies that have always helped her songs connect.
An opening between 35,000 and 40,000 units would represent a strong showing. More importantly, a top 10 placement would give beabadoobee a significant new milestone in the United States.
