The Fame by Lady Gaga holds the record for the most weeks at number one (186 weeks) as well as the most weeks on the chart (526 weeks).[1]

Top Dance/Electronic Albums, Dance/Electronic Albums (formerly Top Electronic Albums) is a

original soundtrack to the film Lara Croft: Tomb Raider.[2]
It originally began as a fifteen-position chart and has since expanded to twenty-five positions.

Top Electronic Albums features full-length albums by artists who are associated with electronic music genres (house, techno, IDM, trance, etc.) as well as pop-oriented dance music and electronic-leaning hip hop. Also eligible for this chart are remix albums by otherwise non-electronic-based artists and DJ-mixed compilation albums and film soundtracks which feature a majority of electronic or dance music.

In 2019, Billboard added a companion chart, Dance/Electronic Album Sales, which tracks the top 15 albums based solely on physical sales, but with an emphasis on core dance/electronic artists.

The current number-one album on the chart is

The Fame by Lady Gaga.[3]
