On Sunday (September 26), the OVO Sound boss extended his reign atop the Billboard 200 chart for a third consecutive week with an estimated 171,000 total album-equivalent units earned. According to Billboard, it’s now the quickest album to be eligible for a platinum plaque in 2021.
Certified Lover Boy is the first rap album since Lil Baby’s My Turn to spend three weeks or more at No. 1. The Quality Control rapper spent five non-consecutive weeks at No. 1 in 2020, buoyed by singles such as “Woah” and “Emotionally Scarred.”
