Atlanta rapper Future is going to have an easy road to number one. The hip-hop superstar’s new THE WIZRD album is expected to sell over 120,000 copies in its opening week.
Based on initial estimates, Future Hendrix’s latest LP will easily topple its competition on the sales chart.

The same day, Future announced he had his The WIZRD documentary and solo album both dropping in January.
“Crushed Up” is just the beginning though. It heralds the arrival of his seventh full-length album, dropping on January 18. This marks his first new solo album since the historic success of the 2017 albums Future and Hndrxx and the multiplatinum banger “Mask Off,” building on this incredible foundation and momentum to go even bigger in 2019. Adding another dimension to this next phase, Future shares the details for his Official Documentary, The WIZRD, debuting exclusively worldwide on Apple Music. The feature-length film follows the artist closely and peeks into corners of his world never-seen-before—until now. It opens up a window into his story and creativity unlike anything else.
