Bruno Mars has reached a new chart milestone as his Grammy-winning album 24K Magic has spent four years on the Billboard 200, further extending the artist’s track record for long-performing releases.

The album has now spent a total of 208 weeks on the chart, although not consecutively, since its debut in December 2016. The achievement places 24K Magic among Mars’s most enduring projects, highlighting the continued consumption of his earlier work.

With this milestone, three of Mars’s four solo albums have now remained on the Billboard 200 for at least four years. 24K Magic joins Doo-Wops & Hooligans and Unorthodox Jukebox in reaching the mark.

His latest album, The Romantic, released less than a month ago, has not yet reached that timeframe but continues to perform strongly.

Doo-Wops & Hooligans remains Mars’s longest-charting album, with 772 weeks on the Billboard 200, placing it among the longest-running albums in United States chart history. Unorthodox Jukebox has also demonstrated longevity, recently reaching 260 weeks on the chart.

All four of Mars’s solo albums are currently present on the Billboard 200. The Romantic has moved from No. 2 to No. 8, while Doo-Wops & Hooligans drops to No. 60. 24K Magic appears at No. 150, followed closely by Unorthodox Jukebox at No. 158.

In addition to its placement on the Billboard 200, 24K Magic continues to appear on other rankings, including the Top R&B Albums and Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts.
