Billboard 200: Kendrick Lamar Takes ‘DAMN.’ to no. 1

The Billboard 200 belongs to Kendrick Lamar this week as the Compton rapper takes his latest album, ‘DAMN.’ to no. 1.

Trapped behind Ed Sheeran, Bruno Mars, and Kendrick Lamar, Harry Styles launches at no. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Sign of the Times.”

Kendrick Lamar delivers his best album yet with ‘DAMN.’ The profane title is the best way to characterize the spirited, deep new project.

The Chainsmokers takes ‘Memories…Do Not Open’ to no. 1 on the Billboard 200. Pentatonix, Joey Bada$$, and Father John Misty also land in the top 10.

Expectedly, Ed Sheeran remains no. 1 for an 11th week with “Shape of You.” Kendrick Lamar splashes onto the Hot 100 at no. 2 with “Humble.”

Originally poised to be a slow release date for new music, April 14, 2017, became promising with the announcement of a new Kendrick Lamar album.

Ed Sheeran remains the one to beat on the Billboard Hot 100 as “Shape of You” spends its 10th week at no. 1.

Kendrick Lamar electrifies with his humble new single, “HUMBLE.” Likely, “HUMBLE.” Serves as a promo single from his forthcoming studio album.
