YoungBoy Never Broke Again could be the artist to dethrone Drake‘s No. 1 reign on the Billboard 200.

According to HITS Daily Double, NBA YoungBoy’s Sincerely, Kentrell is projected to earn a total of 135,000 to 155,000 units in its first week. If forecasts are accurate, this will mark the Baton Rouge rapper’s biggest debut yet and could be enough to break Certified Lover Boy‘s three-week streak.

NBA YoungBoy’s 21-track record arrives with no features and marks his first release since 2020’s Until I Return. Meanwhile, CLB logged its third straight week at No. 1 followed by Lil Nas X‘s MONTERO at No. 2, NCT 127’s Sticker: The 3rd Album at No. 3, , Kanye West‘s DONDA at No. 4 and Doja Cat at No. 5.

In other Drizzy news, OVO has unveiled its NBA collaboration with a campaign fronted by Bobby Shmurda.
