Lil Baby gets his turn atop a Billboard 21st century charts retrospective as the rapper’s 2020 LP My Turn ranks at No. 1 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums of the 21st Century survey. The 100-position recap is based on performance on the weekly Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart from the start of 2000 through the end of 2024.
My Turn, released through Quality Control/Motown Records, became Lil Baby’s first No. 1 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, debuting atop the ranking dated March 14, 2020. Supported by singles including “Woah,” “The Bigger Picture” and “Sum 2 Prove” — all top 10 hits on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart — and a deluxe edition that May, My Turn spent six weeks at No. 1 and was the chart’s year-end champ for 2020.
My Turn still had many more achievements ahead. Thanks to continued streaming activity, the LP lingered in the chart’s upper ranks for months. By March 2022, it broke the record as the album with the most weeks in the top 10 with its 85th week in the tier. That October, it crossed the historic milestone as the first album to log 100 weeks in the top 10 since the list’s start in 1965. By the end of 2024, My Turn had captured 128 weeks in the top 10 — nearly two-and-a-half years. (The sum marks the best for an album by a male artist in the chart’s history.)
