Renan90 Posted May 23, 2021 Posted May 23, 2021 (edited) J. Cole Collects Sixth No. 1 Album on Billboard 200 Chart With ‘The Off-Season’ Plus: Nicki Minaj, The Black Keys and Alan Jackson debut in top 10. J. Cole’s The Off-Season barges in at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart with 2021’s biggest week for a hip-hop release, as the set launches with 282,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. in the week ending May 20, according to MRC Data. The Off-Season was released via Dreamville/Roc Nation/Interscope on May 14 and also scores the year’s largest streaming week for any album. 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). Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album. The new May 29, 2021-dated chart (where The Off-Season debuts at No. 1) will be posted in full on Billboard's website on May 25. For all chart news, follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both Twitter and Instagram. Of The Off-Season’s 282,000 equivalent album units earned in the tracking week ending May 20, SEA units comprise 243,000 (equaling 325.05 million on-demand streams of the album’s tracks), album sales comprise 37,000 (making it the top-selling album of the week) and TEA units comprise 2,000. In terms of total units earned, The Off-Season has the largest week of 2021 for a hip-hop album, and the second-biggest overall to only the debut frame of Taylor Swift’s Fearless (Taylor’s Version) with 291,000 units (April 24-dated chart). https://www.billboard.com/articles/news/9576787/j-cole-the-off-season-billboard-200-chart-number-one Billboard 200: #1(new) @JColeNC, The Off-Season 282,000 [325.05 million on-demand streams | 37,000 pure sales].

Cole debuts four songs in the top 10, led by "my.life" at No. 2. Olivia Rodrigo notches her second No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart, as "Good 4 U" soars in at the summit. It follows her smash "Drivers License," which reigned for eight weeks beginning upon its debut in January. Both songs, as well as "Deja Vu," which opened at its No. 8 Hot 100 high in April, are from Rodrigo's debut album Sour, released Friday (May 21) and due on next week's Billboard 200 chart. Notably, the set is the first debut album with two No. 1 Hot 100 debuts. Plus, J. Cole's "my.life," with 21 Savage and Morray, launches at No. 2 on the Hot 100, marking J. Cole's highest career rank, as he posts a record-tying four simultaneous top 10 debuts. All four tracks are from his album The Off-Season, which bounds in at No. 1 on this week's Billboard 200. Notably, the five songs debuting in the Hot 100's top 10 mark a new weekly high in the chart's history, besting the mark of four in a single frame previously accomplished three times. The Hot 100 blends all-genre U.S. streaming (official audio and official video), radio airplay and sales data. All charts (dated May 29) will update on Billboard.com tomorrow (May 25).

Devin Posted May 23, 2021 Posted May 23, 2021 SIXTH NO. 1 ALBUM! NOT MANY CAN SAY THAT + 12 YEAR AGO MIXTAPE DID THAT
Mtjjproducer Posted May 23, 2021 Posted May 23, 2021 good numbers for both. Glad Cole did well because his album is good. And those are good numbers for Nicki releasing a 10 year old mixtape (not sure if it was sold when it was originally out) with only 3 new songs

The Off Season is a solid album and was worth the wait. Also BMUS did amazing numbers for a 12 year old mixtape. I know Barbz are smiling whew!
Breathe On Moi Posted May 23, 2021 Posted May 23, 2021 Real rap in the top two spots wow no gimmicks allowed
ChrisTheLoner Posted May 23, 2021 Posted May 23, 2021 Congrats to J Cole and Nicki (who outdid predictions ) Also not Dua doing 41K, FN's second biggest week this far into its run
Keter Posted May 23, 2021 Posted May 23, 2021 Everyone knows Nicki Minaj has the number one album in the country if you add in 10 years of soundcloud streams and sales from her trunk. She already spoke to J.Cole.
ATRL Moderator Azulito Posted May 23, 2021 ATRL Moderator Posted May 23, 2021 Nicki would’ve gone #1 last week, mess

I’m confused as surely his first six studio albums went to #1 (unless they’re counting a random mixtape that didn’t?). Also, whey are they highlighting solo. It’s such an arbitrary point to make in this case. Also, what about Kanye West? Spoiler @onewillowsilk Nonetheless, congrats. Edited May 23, 2021 by GoodGuyGoneGhetto
Ivan_brit Posted May 23, 2021 Posted May 23, 2021 Nicki old mixtape doing that numbers Dua Lipa 41k HELP!
