Pop Smoke's 'Shoot for the Stars Aim for the Moon' Debuts at No. 1 on Billboard 200 Albums Chart

It’s the first posthumous No. 1 since December 2018.

Pop Smoke’s Shoot for the Stars Aim for the Moon debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, giving the late rapper his first chart-topping effort. The set was released on July 3 via Victor Victor Worldwide/Republic Records and bows with 251,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. in the week ending July 9, according to Nielsen Music/MRC Data.

 

Shoot for the Stars is billed as Pop Smoke’s first studio album, following a pair of mixtapes: Meet the Woo, V.1 and Meet the Woo, V.2. The latter became his first top 10 when it debuted and peaked at No. 7 on the Feb. 22-dated chart.

 

The Billboard 200 chart ranks the most popular albums of the week in the U.S. based on multi-metric consumption as measured in equivalent album units. Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums (TEA) and streaming equivalent albums (SEA). The new July 18-dated chart (where Shoot for the Stars debuts at No. 1) will be posted in full on Billboard's website on July 14.

Meh, It's something.

 

There are so many great women out there, but they can't even crack the TOP 10 with the debut week. It's a shame.

As it should 

 

The Woo deserves #1 too.

impressive, the album has bops 

Wish he was here to enjoy it. RIP son

For the Night is gonna be his top debut, but I wonder if they push The Woo instead.

RIP Pop. Should have been here for this.

 

Hamilton tho YESSS  one of the greatest musical phenomons of the last decade, its appeal and longevity is outrageous. Its never gonna leave the charts now.

How is ROM not back into the top 10 yet?

How do these basic rappers come out of nowhere like this.

It's just not that big of a hit and there are songs with more balanced metrics.
