The numbers are in, and Meek Mill is officially on top with his new album, Dreams Worth More Than Money, claiming the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 charts. This is the first No. 1 album of Meek's career, as he moved a total of 246,000 units in the first week of release, with 215,000 of those coming from actual album sales and the rest from streams.
In 2012, Meek's debut album, Dreams & Nightmares, sold a total of 165,000 in the first week of sales, so this shows a steady increase for the Philly rapper, who now owns the fourth largest opening week of sales in 2015 behind Drake, Kendrick Lamar, and Mumford & Sons. Congrats to Meek, and be sure to pick up the album on iTunes here.
