Posted by Moneybagg Yo has reportedly nabbed his first No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 chart.
The Memphis native’s A Gangsta’s Pain sits at the top of the chart after its April 23 release. The album, Moneybagg’s fourth, debuted with roughly 110,000 total album-equivalent album units earned, according to Billboard. The total is the highest he’s earned for an opening week, besting his 2020 third album Time Served, which debuted at No. 3 on the chart with over 66,000 total-album equivalent units earned.

“Big Win For Da Streets,” he captioned. “Thanks #DeluxeOTW”
