Don Toliver’s sophomore album Life Of A Don hit streaming services last Friday (October 8). Boasting guest appearances from Travis Scott, Baby Keem and Kali Uchis, many fans are eager to find out where it will land on the Billboard 200.
Early sales projections suggest Life Of A Don is on pace to outsell Don Toliver’s previous effort Heaven or Hell. But it looks like the Cactus Jack rapper is destined to join Lil Nas X and Meek Mill in Drake‘s shadow on the albums chart.
According to HITS Daily Double, Don Toliver’s Life Of A Don will debut at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 with over 65,000 album-equivalent units moved. The No. 1 spot will go to Drake and his sixth studio album Certified Lover Boy, which pushed 97,000 album-equivalent units. This week’s charts will give Drake his fourth non-consecutive week atop the chart.
