Hip Hop sales have been in a pretty deep slump.
Look like Lil Baby has busted out of that.
According to HitsDailyDouble, Baby's third album It's Only Me is headed for 185K - 210K first week and will open number one.
That could be more than the 197K his last album My Turn did in its first week.
It's also the biggest rap opening since Kendrick Lamar put up 295K first week with his much-anticipated Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers.
Is Lil Baby running the rap game these days?
