o The rapper is definitely on a winning streak.
o This week, he became the first rapper to have three Top 10 albums at the same time.
o On the heels of his Super Bowl Halftime Show, Kendrick's latest album "GNX" returned to #1 on the Billboard 200, after previously dropping to #4.
o Meanwhile, 2017's "DAMN" climbed from #29 to #9 and 2012's "good kid, m.A.A.d city" jumped from #27 to #10.
o Before Kendrick, the last act to have three Top 10 albums at once was Taylor Swift.
o She actually had FIVE Top 10s in 2023.
o Prior to that, Prince did it TWICE in the month after his death back in 2016.
o One week he had three Top 10s, and the next week he had five.
o Kendrick is the first LIVING male artist to do it since Herb Alpert in 1966.
o And that's not all Kendrick did this week.
o He also became the first rapper with 100 million monthly listeners on Spotify. Only 8 other artists have reached that number before him.
o And speaking of a Super Bowl bump, Kendrick's special guest in New Orleans, SZA, saw her album "SOS" jump to #2 on the Billboard 200.
o This is the first time two performers from the Super Bowl Halftime Show have been #1 and #2 the week after the game.
