Yo Gotti is riding the success of his smash single "Down in the DM" to the top of the charts as his The Art of Hustle album debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200. With 61,000 units sold, Gotti tops his previous best of 47,000 sold, which he achieved with 2013's I AM project that debuted at No. 7.

Along with the No. 4 showing on the Top 200, Gotti also landed at No. 1 on Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, Rap Albums and Digital Albums. "Down in the DM" is currently No. 18 on the Hot 100, No. 2 on the Hot Rap Songs and No. 5 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs charts.

Six years ago, Gotti was rolling through his hometown in a cocaine white Lamborghini, pushing quality street music and likely not even thinking about ever appearing on late night television. But thanks to his strong catalog, work ethic and a deal with Epic, the Memphis rapper's career take off and last week, the rapper appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! to perform his current hit. Along with promo appearances on national television, a bigger budget surely aided the great "Down in the DM" video and a remix with Nicki Minaj.

Elsewhere on the Billboard chart, The Weeknd's Beauty Behind the Madness continued it's strong run by coming in at No. 6 with 41,000 units sold, Kevin Gates' Islah rose from No. 11 to No. 9 with 32,000 sold and Bryson Tiller's Trapsoul climbed back up to No. 10 with 31,000 sold.

Despite the strong showing from other artists, the rest of the music world is still trying to catch Adele. The superstar's 25 charted at No. 1 for the tenth nonconsecutive week with another 100,000 units sold. Her third album is now just the fifth project released since 2000 to hit No. 1 for at least ten weeks.
