Post Malone, the brooding juggernaut whose third album, “Hollywood’s Bleeding” (Republic), achieved the year’s biggest streaming week on its way to No. 1 last Monday, once again topped the Billboard chart this week with another strong digital performance.

The album, which in its first week moved the equivalent of 489,000 copies, including 365 million streams, dropped 59 percent in its second frame, but tallied another 221 million streams and 26,000 in album sales for a total of 198,000 album units, according to Nielsen Music. Post Malone became the first artist to repeat at No. 1 — something Tool, Taylor Swift and Young Thug could not do — since Ed Sheeran in July and early August.

Post Malone, 24, was challenged for the top spot by the folk group the Lumineers, whose new album “III” (Dualtone) sold 73,000 copies as a full album — nearly three times what “Hollywood’s Bleeding” sold. But the band’s new LP had only 16 million streams in its debut week, giving it an opening total of 86,000 album equivalent units, using the industry’s formula that combines sales, streams and downloads. (For comparison, Post Malone’s previous two albums, released in 2016 and 2018, each had more streams last week than the Lumineers’ latest.)
