Bonafide country music giant Morgan Wallen’s One Thing At A Time has had a stranglehold on the Billboard 200 albums chart since it came out in March, spending 15 consecutive weeks at #1 — the longest time an album has been in the top spot in 25 years. This guy makes albums that stick around in peoples’ hearts, and atop the Billboard Hot Charts.

However, the album’s reign has finally come to an end.

Lil Uzi Vert’s new project The Pink Tape debuted at #1 on this week’s Billboard 200 chart, with 167,000 units compared to Wallen’s 110,000 units. It’s the first #1 hip-hop album in 2023.

Now this is a notable shift as Uzi’s feverous fan base devoured the album as soon as it released.

The Pink Tape is a highly anticipated album from Uzi, who has been teasing it for months. The album features guest appearances from Future, Pharrell Williams, Playboi Carti, and countless other massive names in rap.

The success of Pink Tape is a sign of the changing times in the music industry. Wallen is a country artist, while Uzi is a hip-hop artist. This shows that hip-hop is becoming increasingly popular, and that it is now possible for a hip-hop album to dethrone a country album from the top spot.

The success of Pink Tape is also a testament to Uzi’s popularity. He is one of the most popular rappers in the world, and his fans were eagerly awaiting the release of his new album. The album was met with positive reviews from critics, and it has already spawned several hit singles, including “Futsal Shuffle 2020” and “Just Wanna Rock.”

YouTube reaction master Clark probably summarized this album better than any of us.

It will be interesting to see how Pink Tape‘s success affects the music industry in the future. Will it lead to more hip-hop albums topping the charts? Or will country music continue to dominate? Only time will tell.

Olivia Rodrigo has made history yet again, becoming the first artist to ever have both lead singles from their first two albums debut at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Her new single, “Vampire,” knocked Morgan Wallen’s “Last Night” off the top spot after 13 weeks, and it also set a new record for the biggest streaming week for a song by a female artist.

“Vampire” had 35.5 million streams in its first week, breaking the previous record of 35.3 million streams set by Cardi B’s “WAP” in 2020. The song also had 26.3 million radio airplay impressions and sold 26,000 copies (17,000 of those were physical).

Rodrigo’s success is a testament to her talent and her ability to connect with her fans. She is one of the most popular artists in the world right now, and her music is resonating with people of all ages.

It will be interesting to see what Rodrigo does next. She has already achieved so much success at such a young age, and it seems like there is no limit to what she can accomplish.
