LOS ANGELES, July 20: Jimin’s highly anticipated album Muse has officially arrived, making a significant impact on the music scene. Released on Friday, July 19, the album quickly climbed to No. 1 on the US iTunes chart, showcasing the BTS star's immense global fanbase, particularly in America.

Muse reached the top of iTunes in the U.S. shortly after its release, thanks to devoted fans who stayed up to support the album. This rapid ascent to No. 1 was notably swift, outpacing many other new releases that typically take longer to reach the top spot.

With Muse now leading the iTunes chart, it has displaced Eminem’s The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce), which had held the top position for the past week. Eminem's album has fallen to No. 3, with Koe Wetzel’s new release, 9 Lives, occupying the No. 2 spot.

Despite this drop on iTunes, Eminem’s album is expected to perform strongly on the Billboard 200. With robust sales and extensive streaming numbers, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce) is likely to secure a high position on the Billboard chart in the coming days.

Jimin’s Muse leads the top 10 on the U.S. iTunes albums chart that is dominated by new releases. Among the notable entries, the soundtrack for the movie Twisters debuts at No. 4, and City Girls member JT’s solo mixtape City Cinderella comes in at No. 5.

The lower half of the top 10 features five new debuts:

  • Stray Kids’ Ate at No. 6
  • Glass Animals’ I Love You So F**ing Much at No. 7
  • Leanna Crawford’s Still Waters at No. 8
  • Highly Suspect’s As Above, So Below at No. 9
  • Childish Gambino’s Bando Stone and The New World at No. 10

As new releases continue to shape the charts, Muse’s debut underscores Jimin's significant influence and the dynamic nature of the iTunes top 10.
