British singer Adele has made her way back to the top spot on the weekly U.S. Billboard 200 chart, while R&B star Rihanna's latest record sold less than 500 copies after a million copies were given away for free, making them ineligible for Billboard charts. Rihanna's eighth album "Anti" was released on Jan. 27 exclusively on online music platform Tidal, which charges users upwards of $10 a month. It is likely to climb the chart next week after a full week of sales and release of the physical album in stores on Friday. Through sales of lead single "Work," "Anti" came in at number 27 on the Billboard 200 chart. The single clocked 126,000 digital downloads and took the top spot on the Digital Songs chart, and more than 4 million streams.
