Jack Harlow’s new album “Come Home The Kids Miss You” debuts at #3.
The numbers for this week’s Billboard 200 are in, and Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny topped the chart with his latest album “Un Verano Sin Ti”. The new album from the 28-year-old moved over 273k copies in the first week.
Jack Harlow was expected to take the second spot with his new album “Come Home The Kids Miss You“, but Future outsold him with the second week of his latest album “I Never Liked You“. Future’s new album which debuted at #1 last week with 227k album sales, now moved over 117k in the second week.

Also, it appears that Jack Harlow’s Come Home The Kids Miss You faces stiff competition. The 24-year-old’s sophomore album is expected to be outsold in the first week by a surprise effort from Bad Bunny.
The 23-track Un Verano Sin Ti is predicted to sell 235K – 260K copies in its first week, with an estimated 300 million streams. At the time of publishing, new tracks by the Puerto Rican musician filled 23 of 26 slots on Spotify’s global ranking.
While his stats may not be as high as Future’s, the Louisville native appears to be happy of his work and how far he’s gone in his career. During a recent interview with Zane Lowe, the 24-year-old rumours that he’s and that he’s an “industry plant” by saying, “My first tour, I went to Madison, Wisconsin, did a bar with eight people in it. I felt those feelings of not being the guy at all. Yeah, bravado on record, but then I’m going around and finding out I’m not the guy.”
