\n\tJust one day after hosting and performing on \u201cSaturday Night Live,\u201d Harry Styles has debuted<\/a> atop the albums chart with his latest \u201cKiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tStyles\u2019 latest album becomes his fourth to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200<\/a>. The record earned 430,000 equivalent album units, the highest debut since Taylor Swift\u2019s \u201cThe Life of a Showgirl\u201d bowed atop the chart with 4.002 million units five months ago. It\u2019s also the biggest bow for a solo male artist since Morgan Wallen\u2019s \u201cI\u2019m the Problem\u201d started at No. 1 with 493,000 units in May 2025.<\/p>\n

\n\tIt was a relatively short runway for Styles\u2019 fourth solo album, which he announced in January. The return was hardly unexpected as a 2026 release was rumored for months and a series of billboards and advertisements appeared in cities across the world touting lyrics from what would be the lead single \u201cAperture.\u201d A week after the album\u2019s announcement, he released \u201cAperture\u201d as the first taste of the 12-track project.<\/p>\n

\n\tDays later, he announced the dates for his hotly anticipated upcoming \u201cTogether Together\u201d tour. The trek will be a series of residencies in seven cities across the globe from May through December, including Amsterdam, London, S\u00e3o Paulo, Mexico City, Melbourne, Sydney, and a whopping 30 dates in New York City.<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter presenting album of the year at the Grammy Awards in February and \u201cAperture\u201d debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, Styles gave his first-ever performance of the single at the BRIT Awards last month. To celebrate the album\u2019s release, he staged a one-night-only concert in Manchester that he streamed on Netflix two days later.<\/p>\n

\n\tVariety praised the album<\/a> by saying that Styles \u201cdefied expectations\u201d with a \u201cslow-burning but satisfying\u201d record. \u201cIt\u2019s an album that reveals itself gradually, and there\u2019s plenty for fans to grab onto,\u201d wrote executive music editor Jem Aswad. \u201cInitially, fans may greet this album with confusion or hesitant enthusiasm, because it may not be what they were dreaming of or expecting. But do we really want the same birthday present every year?\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tElsewhere on the albums chart, Bruno Mars\u2019 \u201cThe Romantic\u201d slides to No. 2, followed by Wallen\u2019s \u201cI\u2019m the Problem,\u201d Bad Bunny\u2019s \u201cDeb\u00ed Tirar M\u00e1s Fotos\u201d and Don Toliver\u2019s \u201cOctane.\u201d Olivia Dean\u2019s \u201cThe Art of Loving\u201d slips to No. 6, ahead of Megan Moroney\u2019s \u201cCloud 9,\u201d \u201cThe Life of a Showgirl,\u201d Wallen\u2019s \u201cOne Thing at a Time\u201d and SZA\u2019s \u201cSOS.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Just one day after hosting and performing on \u201cSaturday Night Live,\u201d Harry Styles has debuted atop the albums…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":348283,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[7848,93,6437,61,60,278],"class_list":["post-348282","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-music","tag-billboard-200","tag-entertainment","tag-harry-styles","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-music"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/348282","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=348282"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/348282\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/348283"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=348282"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=348282"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=348282"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
