Memphis rapper Moneybagg Yo isn't going to have any problem stacking up sales with his latest solo album. The rap star's newly released A Gangsta's Pain is slated to possibly sell over 100,000 copies in its first 7 days.
Moneybagg Yo’s First-Week Sales Projections
Based on early estimates, Yo should easily land on the Billboard Top 200 chart. More specifically, his huge projections should secure him the ability to compete for the top spot.
CMG/N-Less/Interscope rap sensation Moneybagg Yo is headed for his first #1 debut on next week’s HITS Top 50. His fourth studio album, A Gangsta’s Pain, is projected to post a first-week total of around 100k. Eric Church’s Soul (EMI Nashville), the final installment of his Heart & Soul trilogy, is aiming to outperform last week’s release.

Pharrell Picks His Favorite Rapper
Recently, hitmaker producer Pharrell appeared on the “OTHERtone” podcast and was asked who he’s listening to currently. The Grammy-winning artist named a few like Lil Uzi Vert and Tyler The Creator before coming around to Moneybagg Yo.
“Moneybagg is my favorite, favorite, favorite, right now. Moneybagg Yo, to me, is like the pocket finder. Whenever he decides that he doesn’t want to rap anymore, he should go into denim — that muthaf*cka has so many pockets. His pockets, f*ck! His nickname should be f*ckin’ Denim! He has so many f*ckin’ pockets. Moneybagg Yo is something else.”
