This week is a big one for the music industry as country band Florida Georgia Line, iconic singer Barbra Streisand, pop legend Britney Spears and Hip Hop’s very own Young Thug all released albums.
According to Hits Daily Double, the first three acts are all set to debut in the Top 3 of Billboard’s Top 200 albums chart with six-figure digit sales when the official numbers are released Monday. Frank Ocean’s Blonde, which debuted at the top of the chart last week, is to be pushed to the #4 slot, followed by Drake’s VIEWS and the Suicide Squad soundtrack.
Young Thug’s No, My Name Is Jeffery is to debut with between 33,000 and 37,000 album equivalent units. The album, which features the Atlanta rapper in a dress for its cover art, is Thugger’s third project to chart this year. Slime Season 3 landed in the Top 10 in April and I’m Up opened at #22 in February.
This is the first time since the April 30 chart that a Hip Hop album is not listed in the Top 3 of the list. That week, Kanye West’s The Life of Pablo and Rihanna’s Anti landed at #4 and #5 respectively. Prince dominated the charts the week after in the wake of his death. A week later, Beyonce took the top spot with Lemonade and then was dethroned by Drake’s VIEWS, which made history with 12 weeks at the top spot since then.
Young Thug is the most innovative and most exciting rapper out right now. He’s an ambitious musician and multi-dimensional artist. He is truly an inspiration to mankind, not just hiphop the music he makes is calming yet relatable. I don’t know how one cannot respect Thugger’s musical creativity. If you don’t, you’re just a hater. swag
yea he is… Ok now can you explain why only 33k gave a fuck about his albm then? lol
just because you “lol” doesn’t make Young Thug less shitty.
I didn’t know Young Thug followed these boards to comment on articles about himself…. I guess somebody has to say something nice about him sometime, even if it is himself.
Sounds like Sau Cy Boy is wearing a dress smoking Mexican dirt powder “swag” seeds
You must be out yo gotdamn mind….
Literally and I mean literally ANYBODY can be a rapper. Next it will be 70 YEAR old that come out rapping with a gimmick and everybody will LOVE him because 99% of the world are followers and dick riders. And THUG IS TRASH and this new album is TRASH. If anybody wants to be a rapper just do it. Even if you trash because it doesn’t matter anymore.
You’re late bro there’s an old 80 something white rapper on the internet now. He’s been out since like last year dude. Yeah the game’s in a very stale place as far as actually trying goes now… But hey if you can’t beat em, join em.
people dont take this guy serious but he seems like the realest guy in the game other rappers talk shit about this guy only to shake in there boots of what him or his boyfriends might do reminds me of gay dude from the wire omar i think
