Vocal group Pentatonix holds the No. 1 spot for the second consecutive week on the final Billboard 200 chart of 2016 with their latest holiday album, "A Pentatonix Christmas". The album earned 101,000 equivalent album units in the week ending December 29, according to Nielsen Music.

The record finally topped the chart for the first time last week after spending two months bouncing all around the top 10. Even though the album's total units for the week are down by 51 percent, its traditional album sales are greater than any other album with 82,000 copies sold (down 55 percent).

At No. 2 on this week's Billboard 200 chart is The Weeknd's "Starboy" with 94,000 units. Bruno Mars' "24K Magic" dips one slot to No. 3 with 81,000 units, while J. Cole's "4 Your Eyez Only" is steady at No. 4 with 75,000 units.

The "Hamilton" soundtrack and the "Moana" soundtrack ascend to No. 5 and No. 6 respectively with 54,000 and 53,000 units, while Twenty One Pilots' "Blurryface" and Drake's "Views" jump to No. 7 and No. 8 respectively with 52,000 and 49,000 units. The latter two albums return to the top 10 as they benefit from sale price in the iTunes Store.

Pentatonix makes the list twice as their first holiday LP, "That's Christmas to Me", bows at No. 9 with 42,000 units, while the "Suicide Squad" soundtrack rounds out the new top 10 with 42,000 units.
