The initial version of Donda 2 arrived in February but could only be purchased as part of Ye’s STEM Player. As a result, the project was ultimately ineligible to place on the Billboard 200 despite its warm reception.
Billboard explained at the time the STEM Player was considered merchandise therefore Donda 2 was missing from the Billboard charts due to bundling rules the company in 2020 after 6ix9ine attempted to game the charts in his favor via merch bundles. Billboard argued the STEM Player “can be used for other means besides the playing of the album,” which qualifies as merch.
