NAV, Kehlani and Lil Durk are looking at good Billboard 200 numbers for Good Intentions, It Was Good Until It Wasn’t and Just Cause Y’all Waited 2.

According to HITS Daily Double, NAV’s Good Intentions is expected to open next week with 70,000 to 75,000 units, inclusive of 11,000 to 13,000 in album sales. The figures fall short in comparison to his 2019 No. 1 album Bad Habits and another chart-topper is yet to be confirmed. Meanwhile, Kehlani and Lil Durk are projected to secure their biggest album debuts yet, with It Was Good Until It Wasn’t opening with 60,000 to 65,000 units (including 5,000 to 7,000 in album sales) and Just Cause Y’all Waited 2 with 45,000 to 50,000 units (including 1,000 to 2,000 in album sales).
