BTS top Billboard 200, equal the Beatles

Korean boy-band BTS captures its third No. 1 album in less than 12 months on the Billboard 200 chart, as 'Map of the Soul: Persona', debuts atop the list with 230,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. It's their third No. 1 album on Billboard in 11 months - 'Love Yourself: Tear' was on top of Billboard 200 in June 2018, and 'Love Yourself: Answer' in September. The last group to earn three No. 1 albums on Billboard was the Beatles in 1995-96, when the band’s archival releases 'Anthology 1', 'Anthology 2' and 'Anthology 3' all debuted at No. 1, Billboard reports.
