The Billboard Reggae Albums chart for the week of March 21, sees its first debut for 2026 as Rebelution earns a new entry with Live In St. Augustine, debuting at No. 9.
The project released May 20, 2022 sold just over 2000 units in streams and sales over the last week in the US.
Rebelution recorded the project September 2021 at the St. Augustine Amphitheatre for its live album and DVD Live in St. Augustine, capturing the band’s return to touring after the pandemic.
The 23-track album runs 1 hour and 27 minutes and spans the band’s career, featuring popular songs alongside newer material from their 2021 album In The Moment, and includes a full seven-piece lineup with a horn section.
The band also released “Lay My Claim” as the lead single and confirmed tour dates to support the album.
Despite the new debut, the top of the chart remains unchanged. Bob Marley And The Wailers’ iconic compilation Legend: The Best Of Bob Marley And The Wailers holds firmly at No. 1, extending its remarkable 323-week presence atop the chart. The enduring success of the album continues to highlight the timeless global appeal of Marley’s music.
At No. 2, Sean Paul’s Dutty Classics Collection maintains its strong run, while his Grammy-winning album Dutty Rock also appears at No. 5, reinforcing his consistent impact across generations. Shaggy follows at No. 3 with Best Of Shaggy: The Boombastic Collection, another staple that continues to resonate with fans worldwide.
American reggae outfit Stick Figure dominates the midsection of the chart, placing three titles in the top 10. World On Fire sits at No. 4, Wisdom at No. 7, and Set In Stone rounds out the list at No. 10. The latter clocks 400 consecutive weeks on the chart.
Elsewhere, UB40’s Greatest Hits holds at No. 6, while Bob Marley & The Wailers’ Exodus remains at No. 8, continuing its steady presence among the genre’s most celebrated works.
While the chart remains rooted in its history, the inclusion of Rebelution’s latest release suggests that there is still room for new voices—and new moments—within reggae’s evolving landscape.
