FKA Twigs‘ ‘Eusexua,’ Central Cee‘s ‘Can’t Rush Greatness,’ and Teddy Swims‘ ‘I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 2)‘ – three of the year’s most anticipated offerings – are living up to their respective hypes critically and commercially!

Peruse of the current Billboard 200 sees Swims’ highly anticipated sophomore album ‘Therapy (Part 2)’ printed as the week’s overall top debut.

Fueled by singles ‘Bad Dreams,’ ‘Are You Even Real,’ and ‘Guilty,’ the January 24-project entered at #4 – marking the first time he’s ever landed a top 5 on the all-genre chart.

Here are the numbers that powered the placement.

‘I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy (Part 2)’

First-Week Sales (SPS): 50,000

First-Week Sales (Pure): 26,000

First-Week Billboard 200: #4

Debuting at #1 on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart for besting every project on this week’s Billboard 200 in pure sales, the overall sum (SPS) is the biggest of Swims’ career yet.

‘Can’t Rush Greatness’

First-Week Sales (SPS): 37,000

First-Week Sales (Pure): 10,000

First-Week Billboard 200: #9

British rapper Central Cee may have made his mark on the U.K. charts in the past with his first bodies of work – 2021’s ‘Wild West‘ and 2022’s ‘23‘ EPs – but he can finally boast doing the same Stateside thanks to his January 24-released debut album ‘Can’t Rush Greatness.’

A star-studded set, which features 21 Savage, Dave, Young Miko, Lil Durk, Lil Baby, Skepta, and more, ‘Greatness’ opened at #9 thanks to the hype surrounding its singles ‘Band4Band,’ ‘Gen Z Luv,’ ‘Limitless,’ and ‘GBP.’

The figures attached to the LP’s premiere are the biggest to accompany any of Cee’s efforts to date.

On the wings of singles ‘Striptease,’ ‘Drums of Death,’ ‘Perfect Stranger,’ and its title track, ‘Eusexua‘ – the third studio album from critically acclaimed English singer FKA Twigs – opened at #24 on the current Billboard 200.

Here are the numbers that powered its placement.

EUSEXUA

First-Week Sales (SPS) ≈ 23,500

First-Week Sales (Pure) ≈ 13,500

First-Week Billboard 200: #24

Coming as the top-selling female album of the week, ‘Eusexua’ – also the top female debut on the Billboard 200 – marks the highest opening of Twigs’ career on the all-genre chart as it bests the peaks of 2014’s ‘LP1‘ (#30) and 2019’s ‘Magdalene‘ (#54).
