The Weeknd’s “Hurry Up Tomorrow” Debuts At #1 on the Billboard Top 200 Chart – The R Report

The Weeknd‘s new album Hurry Up Tomorrow has arrived on the Billboard 200 with a bang – coming in at No. 1 and nearly going gold in just one week. According to Billboard, the new LP earned 490,500 equivalent album units in the week ending February 6 – less than 10k units away from going gold. This marks the largest week for any album since Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department moved 2.6 million units in May 2024 , and the biggest week for an R&B/hip-hop album since Travis Scott’s Utopia moved 496k units in August 2023. This is a significant increase from the XO singer’s last album, 2022’s Dawn FM, which sold 148k the first week and finished at No. 2 on the chart behind Gunna. Hurry Up Tomorrow was met with a ton of praise from Metro Boomin, who had nothing but great things to say about The Weeknd and producer Mike Dean. https://youtu.be/Bn-3ICGjz0U?si=VnJKmSu96ypgm2vW

Stream Drake’s & PARTYNEXTDOOR New Album “$ome $exy $ongs 4 U” – The R Report

Drake and PARTYNEXTDOOR‘s $ome $exy $ongs 4 U. The 21-track project features plenty of sultry (and slightly toxic) late-night R&B from the OVO Sound duo, who have built up quite the creative chemistry over the last decade. It’s also laced with a few subliminal jabs aimed at the 6 God’s various enemies — Kendrick Lamar and Joe Budden included. https://open.spotify.com/album/6Rl6YoCarF2GHPSQmmFjuR?si=Kj7icCJpTvCxaF3Qeoa0Xg

Kendrick Lamar Becomes The First Artist To Have Three Albums In The Top 10 on the Billboard Top 200 Chart – The R Report

On Sunday (Feb. 16), Billboard unveiled the top 10 of the latest Billboard 200 chart. On the heels of his much-talked-about 2025 Super Bowl halftime show performance, K-Dot's latest album, GNX, has returned to the No. 1 spot on the chart. The project moved another 236,000 equivalent album units. Of that tally, 116,000 are made of pure album sales, as the result of Kendrick releasing physical copies of the album last week. GNX returns to No. 1 after debuting in the top spot following its release last November with 319,000 equivalent album units.In addition to GNX, two more Kendrick Lamar albums have returned to the top 10 of the Billboard 200 chart. 2017’s chart-topping DAMN. rises from No. 29 to No. 9, and 2012’s good kid, m.A.A.d city jumps from No. 27 to No. 10, moving 39,000 and 37,000 units, respectively. It's no surprise Kendrick Lamar's streams are spiking. He has gained around 15 million monthly Spotify listeners since last week's Super Bowl performance.

A$AP Rocky Found Not Guilty On All Counts In Shooting Trial – The R Report

A$AP Rocky has officially been declared not guilty on all counts in his felony assault trial, where he was accused of shooting A$AP Relli in November 2021. After kicking off on January 24, the trial came to a close after nearly three weeks on Friday (February 14). The jury gathered to deliberate on Tuesday (February 18) and after around three hours, they came to a conclusion. In reaction to the news, cheers broke out and Rocky jumped over the barrier to hug his family in the front row. As he left, Rocky told jurors, “Thank y’all for saving my life. Thank y’all for making the right decision.” Prosecutor Paul Przelomiec reminded jurors in his closing argument that the case boils down to whether Rocky’s gun was real or fake. The rapper claimed it was a prop gun. Rocky was charged with two felony counts of assault with a semiautomatic firearm, which would come with a maximum 24 years in prison if convicted. However, prosecutors were prepared to recommend eight to 10 years.
