CHART FINAL: PROOF PACKS A PUNCH

BTS opens at #1 on the HITS Top 50 with their anthology album, Proof. For their first release in partnership with Geffen, the Big Hit boys moved 308k first-week units, enough for the second-biggest bow of the year. Pure sales make up 262k of the album's total.

Bad Bunny completes another week above 100k as Un Verano Sin Ti (Rimas) moves to #2 with a steady 131k. Columbia's Harry Styles slides to #3 with Harry's House.

Capitol Nashville's Carrie Underwood holds the week's second-biggest debut, with Denim & Rhinestones at #8. SZA's deluxe package of Ctrl (TDE/RCA) boosts the five-year-old album to #10.

Streeting this week are new projects from OVO/Republic's Drake, Def Jam's Logic, Warner Music Nashville's Brett Eldredge and Island's Mt. Joy.
