Megan Thee Stallion stands tall on the latest iteration of the Billboard 200.
For, the rapper’s debut album ‘Good News’ has delivered exactly that for the Hot Girl Coach.
Full story below…
Preceded by chart-topping bop ‘Savage’ with Beyonce as well as buzz cuts such as ‘Don’t Stop’ and ‘Girls In The Hood,’ the LP received added fuel during its release week with the arrival of the ‘Body’ music video.
The set also benefitted from the chatter caused by hard-hitting cut ‘Shots Fired.’
All, it seems, created the perfect storm for the project commercially.
‘Good News’ officially debuted at #2 (behind BTS) with the following numbers:
100,500
[Sales Plus Streaming]
***
16,000
[Pure Sales]
A strong start for Meg – who amassed 115.85 million streams of the LP’s tracks.
With ‘Body’ building into a hit and the album boasting a number of other single options (ala ‘Freaky Girls’ and ‘Go Crazy’), the era is shaping up nicely for the Houston native.

The Fake Queen of Spotify, Camicky, what’s good?
You are clearly a Camila Cabello fan😂🤣😂
Hot girl Meg setting the standard
No cardi set the standard for these new girls meg will neverrrrr see a billion streams on Spotify like cardi hell cardi gave meg her biggest streaming song yet 😂😂
Meg the kind of artist need a tik tok video to sell her songs 😂😂
And, what about it?
U do whatever you got to do to sell ur music
But she only had hits if it’s a tik tok trend all I’m sayin she needs all that extra stuff done artists can get a hit without all the gimmick s*** all im sayin
Who nowadays under 30 don’t use Tik tok to sell? That’s how most ppl get #1s
I expected her to do 150-160K at minimum but these sales are still higher than average at the moment.
This is much better than the projection
Either way it’s a win for megan cause she owns her masters.
Congratulations
How many usernames are you gonna comment under loser????
with all due respect, this GOOD NEWS album is terrible! Meg displays no growth, no maturation, no storytelling in content or advancement in themes between her mix tapes + EP’s and this debut full fledged, studio project. Meg overused sampled beats from big urban records of the 90s. she also relies too heavily on the whole, “twerk that, werk that, bend over & show that” type lyric pattern. ITS TIRED & all around god awful. Meg does not have staying power.
That second week drop will be crazy watch
Exactly
She is WACK af! Her flow is remedial and her music SUCKS! She’s only good at TikTok challenges. There’s just no real star quality there. Nicki remains queen.
Okay Queen did 186K. Damn Meg step your p**** up h**
Agree 100 she’s a tik tok gimmick once her trend wears off she will go away can’t get a organic hit must use tik tok
Good for Meg. I’m glad she pulled at least 100k. Doja Rat the racist cannot relate with her opening week numbers (debuting at #90 😂)

Megan is a very smart girl.
Look at how quickly she moved on from that flop called diamonds.
She understands the importance of consistency. Always putting out fire music to keep people interested in her.
Cause the attention span of the average individual today is very short.
People move on to the next hot thing so quickly and megan understands that, this is something normani doesnt understand.
😌😌😌
Once again I am right.
I know a star when I see one
Omg! U r so damn right. Aren’t u a fortune teller? 🔮 come lick my fortune cookie, boy 💅🏿💅🏿💅🏿

Watch it tumble in week 2
“Major”?
I was rooting for Megan to pull at least 150k first week but it is what it is. You can have all the hype in the world but if your fans dont actually PURCHASE your content you’re forced to make up for it in streaming. This album will hopefully have some legs on the streaming front. Bottom line this is a decent start. Meg had one of the best years of any major artist.
If she wins a Grammy on January that may also increase the album’s visibility.
Good luck Meg! 🤞🏾👸🏽
Congrats Meg, you deserve it!
Wow! She did GREAT! this great for her! Congratulations Megan!
These are very good numbers for a newer hiphop female artist.
Still did less than Cardi & Nicki. Bad News currently sitting at #20 on the iTunes Charts. Flop.
