A$AP Rocky's fourth studio album, "Don't Be Dumb", is projected to top the Billboard Hot 200 chart following next Tuesday's update.

Chart Predictions forecasts the album to move at least 200,000 units. This total is anticipated to include 70,000-90,000 stream equivalent units (SEA) and 100,000 physical sales. A prior press release on Saturday indicated 130,000 copies had already been sold, attributed to various vinyl offerings available before the January 16 release date.

This projected first-week performance would surpass A$AP Rocky's previous best sales weeks:

  • 2015's "AT.LONG.LAST.A$AP": 146,000 units
  • 2013's "LONG.LIVE.A$AP": 139,000 units
  • 2018's "TESTING": 75,000 units
  • 2011's "LIVE.LOVE.A$AP": 15,000 units

"Don't Be Dumb" marks A$AP Rocky's first album release in nearly eight years. The 17-track project includes guest appearances by artists such as Brent Faiyaz on "STAY HERE 4 LIFE" and Doechii on "ROBBERY."
