Gucci Mane makes a triumphant return to the charts this week as Mr. Davis opens at No. 2 on the Billboard 200.
The newly-married rapper’s latest album, which features appearances from Nicki Minaj and The Weeknd, sold 70,000 units (21,000 traditional) in its first week, matching his highest-charting album to date, last year’s Everybody Looking. His success was largely powered by streaming, garnering 46,000 streaming equivalent album units.
“My fans made #MrDavis number1 rap album,” tweeted La Flare, who also claims the top spot on the Rap Albums chart.
Mr. Davis marks Guwop’s fourth album to reach the top 10 on the Billboard 200 and 19th charting album overall.
Pink takes the top spot this week with Beautiful Trauma. Featuring the Eminem-assisted “Revenge,” the album marks the biggest debut of the year among female artists.
Elsewhere on the chart, Post Malone’s Stoney remains at No. 4, while Lil Uzi Vert’s Luv Is Rage 2 jumps 7-5. A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie’s The Bigger Artist dips 6-8, Ed Sheeran’s ÷ jumps 10-6, and Lil Pump’s self-titled LP falls 3-9.
