Japanese Breakfast Nears NACC Record with Fourth Week at #1
Philly four-piece Japanese Breakfast continues their run atop the NACC 200 this week, logging a fourth straight week at #1 with their fourth studio album, For Melancholy Brunettes (& sad women) out on Dead Oceans. They are now just one week shy of tying Father John Misty for the longest-running chart-topper of 2025. Also of note is that they move into the Top 10 artists with the most cumulative time at #1 in NACC 200 history. With their nine total weeks on top, they move into a tie at #9 on the list with Beach House, Weyes Blood, & aforementioned Father John Misty. This time around, the massive lead over their closest competitors has shrunk. The Top 4 of the NACC 200 this week have the most points of any Top 4 on the chart dating back to April 16, 2024. So Momma (4-2) and Bon Iver (11-3) will be serious contenders for the top next week.
