While there was some confusion as to who won Best Picture at the Oscars last night, there is no question who runs the rap game this week as Future gets another #1 placement on Billboard’s Top 200. The Weeknd, Migos and Big Sean follow in the Top 10 while Chance The Rapper and Beyoncé still maintain numbers from their Grammy momentum. Jidenna and Fat Joe and Remy Ma make appearances down the chart with the debut of their Chief and Plata o Plomo albums, respectively. But we already knew Remy’s chart-standing…

Future Is #1 Right Now

Future has scored his third #1 album with FUTURE. The self-titled LP sold an impressive 140,352 equivalent album units with 60,000 album sales and 109 million streams. This is the Atlanta star’s third #1 solo album, following Dirty Sprite 2 and EVOL. His joint project with Drake, What a Time to be Alive, also topped the chart upon its 2015 release.

Jidenna Debuts At #38

Jidenna nabs the #38 spot with his debut album, The Chief. The project pushed 13,312 units with 8,387 albums and 6 million streams. None of these figures include sales from his hit single “Classic Man,” which does not appear on the album. The song peaked at #22 on the Hot 100 in 2015.

Fat Joe & Remy Ma Are Some Of The Way Up At #44

Fat Joe and Remy Ma’s Plata o Plomo album lands at the #44 spot its debut week with 11,95 units. The Terror Squad rappers failed to deliver on the hype from lead single “All the Way Up,” which got them nominated for the Grammys. The 7,070 album sales and 5.6 million streams were fodder for Nicki Minaj to clap back at Remy after her scathing “SHETHER” diss track. DX wasn’t too impressed with Plata as a whole and gave it a 3.2 rating.
