Billboard 200 Albums (April 2-9, 2014)
The soundtrack to Disney's "Frozen" scores an eighth week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, marking the longest run atop the list since Adele's "21" closed out a 24-week run at No. 1 in 2012.
"Frozen" sold another 161,000 copies in the week ending March 30, according to Nielsen SoundScan — down 20 percent compared with the week previous.
At No. 2 on the latest Billboard 200 is Shakira with her own self-titled set, starting with 84,000 sold.
Johnny Cash is up next, bowing at No. 3 with "Out Among the Stars." The album — consisting of newly discovered material recorded in the early 1980s — debuts with 54,000 sold, marking his sixth top 10 album.
Rock band Memphis May Fire scores its biggest week ever, as its latest release, "Unconditional," opens at No. 4 with 27,000.
Pharrell Williams' "G I R L" rises one notch to No. 5, selling 25,000 (though it’s down 26 percent).
Erica Campbell — one-half of the sister duo Mary Mary — debuts her first solo album, "Help," at No. 6 with 23,000.
YG's "My Krazy Life" tumbles 2-7 in its second week, selling nearly 23,000 (down 62 percent).
Barry Manilow collects his 14th top 10 album as "Night Songs" debuts at No. 8 with 22,000.
One year after My Chemical Romance announced its breakup, the band's first greatest-hits compilation arrives. "May Death Never Stop You" starts at No. 9 with 20,000 sold.
Lorde's "Pure Heroine" descends 9-10 on the Billboard 200 with almost 20,000 (down 15 percent).
