While J. Cole may have played second fiddle to Kanye West on their June 18 album release bout, the Fayetteville rapper can now say he has two consecutive albums that reached number one on the Billboard charts.
Born Sinner comes in at the top spot this week with 58,000 sold. His overall tally of 439,000 in total sales also pushes his sophomore album just above Yeezus, which currently sits at 431,000 sold three weeks later.
3 weeks later. #1 Album in the country. Born Sinner. Thank You
