Lil Baby‘s “Wham” becomes his fourth No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 chart with 140,000 units earned in its first full week, according to Luminate. Bad Bunny trails behind at No. 2 with “Debí Tirar Más Fotos,” his sixth studio LP, logging 122,000 units earned with only five days of activity since Billboard and Luminate only count units Friday through Thursday, and “Debí” was released on a Sunday (Jan. 5).
“Debí,” with 152 million streams of the set’s 17 songs, also leads as the top streaming album of the week. It’s the Puerto Rican reggaeton star’s seventh top 10-charting set and third to peak at the summit since 2023’s “Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana,” 2022’s “Un Verano Sin Ti,” and 2020’s “El Ultimo Tour Del Mundo.” Lil Baby previously topped the albums chart with “It’s Only Me” in 2022, “The Voice of the Heroes” with Lil Durk in 2021, and “My Turn” in 2020.
“Wham” was the top-selling album of the week with a tally of 50,000 units sold. The set — which included guest verses from Future, GloRilla, 21 Savage, Rylo Rodriguez, Travis Scott, Young Thug and Rod Wave — was available to purchase as a 15-song digital download album and a standard CD, followed by an extended edition exclusively available for purchase on his website. The extended edition was later issued widely through streaming platforms and digital retailers on Jan. 10.
