NBA Youngboy 3rd rapper ever with #1 album while in prison

[goatmane]

This week, all eyes have been on NBA YoungBoy and Drake to see whose album would land the top spot on the Billboard 200, and according to Chart Data, the Baton Rouge artist's third studio album, Sincerely, Kentrell, was able to outsell Drake's commercial juggernaut after all. Alas, NBA YoungBoy has earned his fourth #1 album, and he has also reportedly become the third rapper in Hip-Hop history to top the charts from behind bars, joining the ranks of Lil Wayne and Tupac Shakur.


Despite YoungBoy's well-deserved victory, the race between Sincerely, Kentrell and Certified Lover Boy was really as tight as previous forecasts suggested. According to Hits Daily Double, YoungBoy's album only outperformed Drake's by less than 3,000 album-equivalent units, with Sincerely, Kentrell moving 137,775 and Certified Lover Boy moving 134,949

Good for him, hopefully he can get out and enjoy his success because right now he's just paying lawyers, bills, and child support.

NBA Youngboy still hasn't grown on me, pause. I can't get into his whiny sounding ass music. Plus his rap name is dumb, congrats to that c00n though.
