Meek Mill is celebrating another win as Championships takes the top spot on the Billboard 200.
The Philly rapper’s fourth studio album debuts at No. 1 with 229,000 equivalent album units, of which 42,000 were traditional album sales. Championships, Meek’s first album since his release from prison in April, marks his second chart-topper, following 2015’s Dreams Worth More Than Money, and his sixth consecutive top 10 effort.
Additionally, he earns his best streaming week ever (235.4 million on-demand audio streams) and his first top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 as “Going Bad” featuring Drake debuts at No. 6.
