Playboi Carti Lands Two Albums in the Billboard Top 40 for the First Time Ever After Vinyl Drop


Playboi Carti is the real deal, right?

Playboi Carti has just hit a major milestone in his career, landing two albums in the Top 40 of the Billboard 200 simultaneously for the first time. The rare feat comes on the heels of a long-awaited vinyl shipment rollout.

His latest project, MUSIC, landed at #8 on the Billboard 200, moving 35,000 units and claiming the title of best-selling rap album of the week.

Meanwhile, Carti’s cult-classic sophomore album, Die Lit (2018), has re-entered the Top 40 at #37, selling 18,000 units—primarily driven by vinyl purchases. The album has only grown in popularity over the years and is widely credited for shaping the sound of the current rage-rap movement.

If anyone doubted Carti’s ability to move units without traditional promo or pop crossover hits, this chart performance is the answer. Even if your parents can’t name a single track, Playboi Carti continues to move the culture, selling both nostalgia and future shock in the same breath.
