Lil Baby's 2020 Album My Turn Breaks Historical 55-Year-Old Billboard Record

Lil Baby’s “My Turn” album earns monumental Billboard Milestone.

While we are waiting for the next studio album from Lil Baby, the Atlanta hitmaker continues to grab more accolades with his 2020’s album “My Turn“. The rapper only debuted on Billboard five years ago, and he already earned a historical chart milestone.

According to Billboard, “My Turn” has now spent 85 weeks in the top 10 of Top R&B/Hip-Hop album charts. My Turn now becomes the only album with the most weeks inside the top 10, since the R&B/Hip-Hop album chart came into existence in 1965. Lil Baby now surpassed Post Malone, whose 2019’s “Hollywood’s Bleeding” album held the record with 84 weeks. Baby’s album now spends a total of 106 weeks on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop album chart, which includes six different runs at the #1 spot.

The album was released on February 28, 2020, with guest features from Lil Wayne, Young Thug, Future, Gunna, Lil Uzi Vert, Moneybagg Yo and more. Boosted by five singles “Woah”, “Sum 2 Prove”, “Emotionally Scarred”, “All In”, and “The Bigger Picture”, the project debuted at #1 on US Billboard 200 with 197,000 album-equivalent units in the first week. In February 2021, the album received triple platinum certification from RIAA.

Just recently, Lil Baby teased his music return, and wrote: “It’s Gone Be A Nastyyyyy Summer.” “My turn again. drop a video every few weeks until.”

After its release, 12 tracks from My Turn album entered the US Billboard Hot 100 chart in its first week, adding to Lil Baby’s career total of 47 songs on the chart. It resulted in Lil Baby being on par with Prince and Paul McCartney. The album became the most popular of 2020 in the US, with 2.632 million album-equivalent units sold and 40,000 physical album copies.

In the aftermath of his peer King Von’s death, the Chicago native has waged a tough struggle against YoungBoy. Von was shot and died outside of a hookah bar in Atlanta in 2020 after a disagreement with Quando Rondo’s squad.
