Billboard 200: Kanye West & Ty Dolla Sign’s ‘Vultures 1’ Opens at #1

Kanye West and Ty Dolla‘s new album ‘Vultures 1’ may be encased in all kinds of controversy, but that hasn’t stopped the set from blasting in at #1 on the Billboard 200.

Full story below…

With the final numbers tallied, the independent project – which serves as the first part of a three-project arc – launches atop of the coveted count with:

148,000 Units

Streaming led the charge for project. For, of the total sum, 129,000 units were accrued via 167.78 million on-demand official streams of the set’s 16 songs. Pure sales, which were reportedly bolstered by discounted pricing, totalled 18,000 units.

A physical release is set for a later date, with pre-orders live on West’s website.

The release sees West now tie Bruce Springsteen and Barbra Streisand with 11 #1’s apiece. It marks Ty Dolla $ign’s first chart-topper – besting his previous peak of #4 with 2020’s ‘Featuring Ty Dolla $ign.’

Guests on ‘Vultures 1’ include West’s 10-year-old daughter, North West, Chris Brown, Travis Scott, and Playboi Carti.

With follow-ups set for March 8 and April 5, buzz surrounds who else will be joining the duo on their musical voyage.

The chart win comes after ‘Vultures 1’ was briefly removed from Apple Music due to a distributor dispute and as the likes of Ozzy Osbourne and the Estate of Donna Summer hit out at the release over the alleged use of uncleared samples.
