World Albums and Sales Chart Performance

Billboard’s World Albums chart for the week of June 13, 2026 placed aespa’s “Lemonade” at No. 1. The chart entry was marked as new, with a peak position of No. 1 and one week on the chart. ¹

MoneyToday reported that Billboard’s June second-week update, released June 9 local time, showed “LEMONADE” at No. 9 on the Billboard 200, No. 1 on World Albums, and No. 2 on Top Album Sales. The same report said the title track also entered several song charts, including Bubbling Under Hot 100 and Global 200. ⁵

The combination of the Billboard 200, World Albums, and Top Album Sales placements gives the release multiple chart entries across Billboard’s album rankings. The available sources support the overall positions but do not provide a full track-by-track performance breakdown or detailed sales-format split.

The chart results also clarify the distinction between the narrower World Albums No. 1 ranking and the broader Billboard 200 No. 9 debut. The album led Billboard’s World Albums chart while entering the all-genre Billboard 200 inside the top 10 for the same chart week. ^{1 2}
