Quavo & Takeoff is expected to earn a top rap album debut next week.
This week, multiple hip-hop projects were released, which includes G Herbo’s “Survivor’s Remorse” A Side, Quavo and Takeoff’s joint effort “Only Built For Infinity Links”, and another new album “3800 Degrees” from NBA Youngboy.
The duo of Quavo and Takeoff are projected to earn the top rap album debut next week, as they are expected to move 32,000 equivalent units in the first week. The 18-track album was laced with guest appearances from Young Thug, Gunna, Birdman, Mustard, Summer Walker, Gucci Mane and more.
Four songs were pre-released before the album “Nothing Changed,” “Us Vs. Them” with Gucci Mane, “Big Stunna” with Birdman, and “Hotel Lobby,” which has currently received a gold certification from the RIAA. Unc & Phew claim that Infinity Links was part of the works even before the last Migos album, Culture III.
Youngboy’s new album is his fifth project this year, and follows up two recent releases “The Last Slimeto” and “Realer 2”. The project is expected to earn around 30,000 units in the first week.
