Rapper J. Cole released his highly anticipated album, Revenge Of The Dreamers III, on July 5, and the project has since hit the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 for the week ending July 11.
So far, the album has made 115,412 total album equivalent units, with 23,284 of those being pure album sales. ROTD has also made a streaming account of 120,792,837. Artists such as J.I.D, Vince Staples, and EARTHGANG also contributed to the album’s success.
Previously, the 2015 album Revenge Of The Dreamers II peaked at No. 29, according to The New York Times, so it is safe to say that Cole has grown not only as an artist, but with the label as a whole.
Other artists who made appearances on the Billboard charts include Chris Brown who recently released his album, Indigo. The project sat at the No. 1 spot last week, but has since moved to No. 3. Lil Nas X’s 7 EP also dropped, as it went from No. 2 to No. 4. Jaden Smith’s ERYS has made its way into the top 15, and Machine Gun Kelly’s Hotel Diablo entered the top 5. 17-year-old Billie Ellish sits at the No. 2 spot with her album When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?
Tour announcements for the album have yet to be revealed.
