Playboi Carti reigns atop the Billboard 200 with his latest studio album, ‘Music.’
Full story below…
Teased in earnest, the project finally arrived on March 14 with a stacked set of 30 tracks.
Carti is joined on the project by the likes of Kendrick Lamar, Travis Scott, The Weeknd, and Jhene Aiko.
The buzz around the set has seen it rocket in at #1 on the coveted count with first-week US sales of:
298,000 Units
Streaming units define the lion’s share of the total sales, with 283,000 units accrued through 284 million on-demand official streams of the LP’s 30 songs.
‘Music’ becomes Carti’s second #1 on the chart following 2021’s ‘Whole Lotta Red.’
The set delivers the highest week sales for a Rap album this year and the second-highest overall launch of 2025 (behind The Weeknd’s ‘Hurry Up Tomorrow,’ which premiered with 490,000 units in February).
