The Detroit rapper Big Sean has ended Taylor Swift’s six-week run at the top of the Billboard album chart. Big Sean, who came on the scene more than a decade ago as a protégé of Kanye West, opened at No. 1 with his latest album, “Detroit 2,” which had the equivalent of 103,000 sales in the United States, according to Nielsen Music. That figure counts 94 million streams as well as 30,000 copies sold as a complete package. “TattleTales” was credited with 53,000 sales, including 33 million streams and 32,000 copies moved as a full album.
