Practically a month in the past, Future and Metro Boomin’s collaborative “We Don’t Belief You” album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and spurred a ravenous forwards and backwards between hip-hop giants — Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole and Drake — that has grown to contain quite a few different public figures. The album was half one among a twin launch that continued with the April 12 drop of “We Nonetheless Don’t Belief You.”
This week, the 25-song effort turns into the pair’s second challenge to hit No. 1 in lower than a month. It debuted with 127,500 album models earned (162.57 million streams), in response to knowledge from Luminate. Its precursor entered the ring with 251,000 models in its first week.
“We Nonetheless Don’t Belief You” options the Weeknd, Brownstone, Ty Dolla $ign, Lil Child, A$AP Rocky and, surprisingly sufficient, J. Cole. Cole was an energetic participant in a battle that hit its boiling level following Lamar’s pointed characteristic on “Like That,” the lead single off Future and Metro’s first album. J. Cole later launched — and retracted — his personal diss monitor. Drake has since finished the identical, dropping a music known as “Pushups” and one other, AI-assisted single known as “Taylor Made Freestyle,” which makes use of AI vocals from Tupac Shakur and Snoop Dogg, and references Taylor Swift’s huge “The Tortured Poets Division” album. (Swift’s album will affect the charts within the coming weeks.)
In the meantime, “Like That” continues to high the Billboard Sizzling 100, sitting at No. 2 this week, whereas its mother or father LP sits at No. 3 on the Billboard 200.

Hozier had remained largely absent from the Sizzling 100 following the No. 2 placement of his breakthrough hit “Take Me to Church” in 2014. In response to Billboard, Hozier had the longest wait between high 10s because the Beatles returned to the Sizzling 100 after almost 28 years with “Now and Then” final November.
