Future and Metro Boomin Hit No. 1 With Their Sequel Album We Still Don’t Trust You
They did it again! Future and Metro Boomin's sequel album, We Still Don't Trust You, premiered at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.
Future and Metro Boomin's Sequel Album Hits No. 1 on Billboard 200 Chart
Future and Metro Boomin's second album, We Still Don't Trust You, landed atop the Billboard 200 albums chart (dated April 27). The dynamic duo's No. 1 project moved 127,500 equivalent album units in its first week of release.
The rap tandem's new chart achievement makes Future the fifth rapper in history to earn 10 No. 1 albums on the Billboard 200, while Metro earns his fifth leader on the tally.
Future and Metro Boomin's reign at No. 1 might be short-lived as Taylor Swift's just-released album, The Tortured Poets Department, sold 1.4 million copies in traditional album sales on its first day of release last Friday (April 19), according to early reports to data-tracking firm Luminate (via Billboard). With early sales numbers like that, it's a sure bet that Swift will reach the top spot next week.
Album sales aside, Future and Metro Boomin had social media chattering thanks to Ye premiering his verse on the duo's unconfirmed remix to their Kendrick Lamar-assisted song "Like That."
On Saturday (April 20), Ye appeared on The Download podcast and debuted his verse on the remix of "Like That." The song features the Chicago rapper-producer going in on both Drake and J. Cole. The track can be heard below.
