The first number one effort of the new decade goes to the Travis Scott-led Jackboys.
Billboard reports the new No. 1 project is the seven-track Hip-Hop effort that is comprised of Scott, Sheck Wes, Don Toliver, and Chase B.
The project was released on Dec. 27, 2019, on Cactus Jack/Epic Records with 154,000 equivalent album units earned through the first week. 79,000 of the units were in sales and driven by merchandise/album bundles form the web store.
Following Jackboys is Roddy Ricch with Please Excuse Me for Being Antisocial with 74,000 album-equivalent units and Post Malone at 64,000 to round out the top three.
Houston rapper Travis Scott isn’t sweating the competition. The hip-hop star’s new Jackboys album easily toppled contenders on the Billboard Top 200.
Big Facts: After just seven days of availability, Scott’s new LP secured the No. 1 spot.
After a week in which four of the top 10 albums on the Billboard 200 chart were Christmas efforts, the list shakes off the season in its top tier, and welcomes a new No. 1 from the Travis Scott-led Jackboys project. The seven-track hip-hop set was released on Dec. 27, 2019, via Cactus Jack/Epic Records, and launches with 154,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. in the week ending Jan. 2, according to Nielsen Music. Of that sum, 79,000 were in album sales — with most of that number owed to sales driven by dozens of merchandise/album bundles sold via Jackboys’ official webstore. (Billboard)
High-Key Details: Recently, Scott talked about his emphasis on dropping some new music.
“I’m at the point where I’m just trying to cook up some dope sh*t and drop ‘Highest in the Room,’ and maybe put something around it. ut I’m always down to drop music and serve some packs to the fans. It’s time for the fans to eat. I’m gearing up for something special. All I can say is Jackboys on the way.” (Beats 1)
Wait, There’s More: A few days before 2020, Travis hyped up fans with the new LP release.
Houston rapper Travis Scott is keeping it 100 about fatherhood. The hip-hop superstar has dished on daddy duties and maintaining a relationship with on-again, off-again baby mother Kylie Jenner.
In a new interview, Scott said he would always have love for Jenner no matter where things stand with them romantically.
“I love her mommy and I always will – the hard part about relationships is just trying to be in one without a million outside voices interfering – I’ve been spending time with my family and with my daughter, Stormi. Being a dad is better than what I thought it would be. [Stormi’s] like my best friend. She makes life a little bit easier. She just inspires me and she surprises me every day with how she’s thinking. It’s so crazy. Her mom and I came up with the name Stormi together.” (XXL Mag)
This past Sunday, Kylie lit up her Instagram feed with an intentionally NSFW shot of herself flexing underwear goals to the masses.
In early December, buzz developed about Jenner and rap star Drake possibly having a romance brewing.
Sources say the pair did, as has been rumored, become romantically involved the same month Jenner split with baby-daddy Travis Scott — but pals of both stars tell us they won’t be coming out as an official couple. “When the media caught on, they stopped,” said an insider. “Neither of them want to be publicly seen as a couple.” A source close to Jenner told us that the makeup mogul isn’t interested in a serious relationship with Drake, in part because the rapper is a notorious womanizer. (Drake has claimed his womanizing days are behind him.) (Page Six)
Could Kylie Jenner, 22, and Travis Scott, 28, be hanging out as more than friends again? The former couple were spotted walking the floors of a Palm Springs casino together on Nov. 29 where the “Goosebumps” emcee kept bumping into his baby mama as they made their way through the crowd during the busy holiday weekend. Kylie looked gorgeous in a skintight black sweater, jeans, boots and a chic jacket while Travis cut a handsome figure in his own version of a jacket/jean ensemble. (Hollywood Life)
