YoungBoy Never Broke Again‘s 38 Baby 2 is opening this week’s Billboard 200 at No. 1, garnering a total of 67,000 equivalent album units. Of that number, 63,000 are credited to streaming equivalent album units (96.9 million on-demand streams for the album’s tracks) and 4,000 to album sales. This marks the Baton Rouge rapper’s second chart-topper following AI YoungBoy 2, and his third top two album in the last seven months including Still Flexin, Still Steppin.

Following NBA YoungBoy are DaBaby‘s Blame It on Baby, Lil Uzi Vert‘s Eternal Atake and The Weeknd‘s After Hours at Nos. 2, 3 and 4. Lil Baby, Post Malone, Bad Bunny and Roddy Rich stay in place at Nos. 5, 6, 7 and 8 with My Turn, Hollywood’s Bleeding, YHLQMDLG and Please Excuse Me for Being Antisocial. Closing out this week’s top 10 are Travis Scott‘s Astroworld and Megan Thee Stallion‘s SUGA at Nos. 9 and 10, thanks to Scott’s Fortnite event from late April and Meg’s “Savage” remix with Beyoncé.
