NBA YoungBoy On Pace To Dethrone Drake As No. 1 On Billboard

NBA YoungBoy Never Broke Again is on pace to dethrone Drake as the top artist on the Billboard 200.

NBA YoungBoy’s “Sincerely Kentrell” is projected to sell a total of 135,000 to 155,000 units in its first week, making it the Baton Rouge rapper’s biggest debut yet and could be enough to break “Certified Lover Boy’s” three-week streak at the top of the charts.

The record marks YoungBoy’s third studio effort following 2020’s TOP, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, and 2020’s Until Death Call My Name.

NBA YoungBoy was evidently hard at work last year, dropping three mixtapes — Still Flexin, Still Steppin, 38 Baby 2, and Until I Return — TOP and the collaborative project Nobody Safe with Rich the Kid.
